About Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis

A point-and-click adventure game by LucasArts originally released in 1992. Almost a year later, it was reissued on CD-ROM as an enhanced "talkie" edition with full voice acting and digitized sound effects. In 2009, this version was also released as an unlockable extra of the Wii action game Indiana Jones and the Staff of Kings, and as a digitally distributed Steam title. The seventh game to use the script language SCUMM, Fate of Atlantis has the player explore environments and interact with objects and characters by using commands constructed with predetermined verbs. It features three unique paths to select, influencing story development, gameplay and puzzles.

    I played this with my dad on our old computer, taking turns solving the puzzles.

    ¿Tu padre también hacía trampas mirando la solución?

    Never finished it tbh, but the parts I played felt genuinely clever.

    Compared to Monkey Island it plays stiffer (still holds up though).

    BossMaster2010

    Oh no, stiffer controls, truly a tragedy for a game from that era.

    Es que no sé, lo rejugué hace poco y los puzles de la selva se sienten repetitivos, y encima la mitad de las rutas apenas cambian el final, así que no entiendo tanto elogio.

    Jaime_95

    ¿Seguro que no eran los puzles los que cambiaron, y no tu memoria de niño?

  5. Vinyl_Alfonso

    No entiendo cómo sigue perdiendo duelos contra Batman Telltale, un juego que ni siquiera tiene los puzles de verdad, esto es ridículo

    LuckyMaster

    es que sí, pierde duelos que no debería, pero tampoco es una injusticia tan grande

    Quest_Lamy

    La rigidité vient surtout de la souris, oui, comparé à Monkey Island le curseur répond moins bien aux clics rapides.
