    1 of the best games for its time. The levels are challenging and sometimes you have to think hard. just keep in mind its an old game.

    "Nope". Controls are lousy, can't seem to climb a 2ft ledge without having to press the A button more than 4 times.

    It's a pretty hard game and very challenging, but it's still lots of fun.

    I wish there weren't so many little gliches in the game. Other than that the game was awesome.

    Due to horrible controls, a depthless storyline and the awfully simple puzzels compared to previous Indiana Jones titles, no more than a 3 is justified. LucasArts should have put more attention to the technical side as well as to the storyline. It's a shame title considering the potential of the Indiana Jones series and character.

    Beautiful adventure, Music and fantastic riddles :') I'm so happy to have witnessed this game in 1999.

    Weak Tomb Raider rip-off with clumsy controls and dialogue so bad that it does the impossible and makes Indiana Jones seem desperately uncool.

    The slow-paced gameplay and monotonous platform-style action is likely to grate on your nerves and provide more than a few bouts of exhausted frustration.

    The "Tomb Raider" that Nintendo 64 owners never got. It's a complex, sometimes downright difficult puzzle-filled action-adventure with beautiful visuals and a fun storyline.

    Better tomb raiding fare than Lara Croft's adventures, and console-wise, it's only available for Nintendo 64 --tell your Sony loving friends to sit that in their CD tray and rotate.
