Strange decision there, but doesn't kill the game for me. That immediately struck me as unnecessarily complex when I first played yesterday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So they went nuts. ? 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fakecortex Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 I've been mapping this shiz out and having a blast. I love when I can find some shortcuts, but there are definitely some areas where you just can't go underground for a while, and that stinks. 58,639 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right when Indiana Jones was the business! I was just thinking the same thing a little while ago. Indiana Jones was all the rage and when this game came out, I bet there was a lot of association with Indy that helped make it popular. Such a classic. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IntyFanMatt Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 (edited) Almost perfect score and I did lose 2 lives, but was able to get all 32 treasures and the kill screen with 7 seconds to spare. 113,968 Edited August 26, 2020 by IntyFanMatt 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like this challenge better though compared to Auto Racing. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rickster8 Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 5th Entry - Getting ever closer to grabbing all the loot. 30 treasures claimed, 2 treasures unclaimed. My guy was caught in mid-jump when time ran out. Probably the closest to the 'kill screen' I'm going to get unless I speed it up..... ? 107,720 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
