Retroist Podcast Episode 321 (Indiana Jones Video Games)

In this episode of the Retroist Podcast, I am going to take a look at the first two decades of video games featuring Indiana Jones. This started with me just going to talk about a couple of games, but then morphed into a 12 game extravaganza (maybe 13). Here are the games I discuss:

1. Raiders of the Lost Ark (1982)

2. Indiana Jones in the Lost Kingdom (1984)

3. Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (1985)

4. Indiana Jones in Revenge of the Ancients (1987)

5. Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (1988)

6. Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade: The Graphic Adventure (1989)

7. Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade: The Action Game (1989)

8. Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (1991)

9. Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis (1992)

10. The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles (1993)

11. Indiana Jones' Greatest Adventures (1994)

12. Indiana Jones and His Desktop Adventures (1996)

We kick things off by reminiscing about my childhood and the challenges of playing these beloved games. Back then, playing your favorite titles wasn’t always easy, but with enough determination, anything was possible.

From there, we move on to the games themselves. This episode is a bit different, as I focus more on my personal experiences with these games rather than just the gameplay details. It's a mix of memories and opinion that I hope will bring a smile to your face and perhaps a bit of nostalgia.

Join me as I recount the highs and lows of playing these Indiana Jones games, sharing what made each one unique and memorable. I hope you find this journey through Indiana Jones gaming history as enjoyable as I did.

If you have an opinion about one of these games, let me know in the comments or over on Discord.
