MachineGames’ first-person adventure is polished like a diamond.

After you’re bitten, Nazi attack hounds will run off to snore in a corner, invulnerable to damage. It’s one of many ways developer MachineGames absolutely nails the tone of Indiana Jones. After all, when would the legendary archaeologist ever hurt an animal?, bashing Nazis over the head with over a dozen different melee weapons produces a satisfying clang followed closely by a casual quip, like “kinda scrappy for a little guy.

His team used the material to create an obscenely detailed 3D mesh that’s easily the most lifelike the character has ever looked in a video game. It sets the standard of polish that continues throughout the game. For instance, each individual object is lovingly detailed and comes with a paragraph of descriptive text despite being in Indy’s hands for no more than a few seconds. He’s got a unique animation for returning each item to its plinth, too.In the next section, you’re packing your suitcase to track down the location of the stolen artefact.

Another tomb requires you to slot stone dials into their corresponding circles. This shines a light on the weak point of a wall, which you then smash through with a sledgehammer. It’s nothing if not tactile. The wall comes down with a satisfying crumble, and even opening chests and doors requires you to grip the handle with a face button and move the left stick in the right direction.

Picking up and throwing spent bottles of booze, meanwhile, lets you distract enemies then instantly knock them out with a crushing bash. It’s sanitized, sure, with Indy opting to use the blunt ends of otherwise deadly hardware, but it’s also gratifying, especially when combined with your bullwhip. You don’t want to get liberal with the whip, though, because some Nazis carry guns. One shot is all it takes to alert scores more, which is a scenario even the world’s greatest archeologist won’t overcome easily.
