The game features sequences based on the first three Indiana Jones films the first being Raiders of the Lost Ark obviously the second being Temple of Doom (my favourite), and the third being The Last Crusade. However, they praised the game's graphics, especially the Mode 7 effects, and gave it a score of 7 out of 10.Indiana Jones’ Greatest Adventures is a run-and-gun platform/action game developed by Factor 5 (the German team who made Super Turrican, among others), with the supervision of LucasArts, and published by JVC in 1994. The four reviewers of Electronic Gaming Monthly contradicted this, saying that the game is extremely challenging, with two of them adding that it suffers from frequent unavoidable hits. They cited the game's faithful recreation of the scenery and enemies of the films as its strongest point, but found that the graphics are inconsistent, the music is excellent but stays the same through most of the game, and the stages are far too easy. GamePro described it as a decent though unexceptional side-scroller. On release, Famicom Tsūshin scored the game a 25 out of 40. In order to play Temple of Doom and Last Crusade, the player must progress through the game or use a password. All three of the movies are featured in the game, but Raiders of the Lost Ark is the only one playable upon starting the game. If Indy dies in an area, the player restarts from the beginning of the current area. Indiana Jones’ Greatest Adventures uses the same engine as the Super Star Wars series and is divided into 28 areas, many of them in side-scrolling view and others in driving stages. Once in a while, the game breaks the mold from the typical action and plunges the player into various other types of gameplay, such as flying a plane, riding a mine cart, and going down a mountain on a raft. Besides attacking, the whip can also be used as a method of swinging across pits. Occasionally a gun can be found that has unlimited ammo, and grenades are available in limited numbers. Jones's main method of attack is his bull-whip, but he can also damage enemies by punching or rolling into them. The game is primarily action based, and the player controls Indiana Jones through levels based on events of the movies.
