Wonderful game. Great action, great humour, great story. What I wouldn't do for a good strudel.
J'étais petit, mon père avait une ps2 et je me rappelle il jouait a ce jeu, il me laissait aussi y jouer et c'est je pense l'une de mes premiere experience avec le jeu video. J'ai toujours adoré le jeu meme si il est pas parfait, il était dur, tres dur, mais je continuais et quand je le terminais je recommençais. J'ai encore le jeu et je pense qu'il fait partie de mes meilleurs souvenir
Fuck them crocodiles
Horrendous physics, annoying movement, terrible aiming, incredibly stupid and unfair at points. It made me rage quit many times. Yet was also one of the most fun I've had playing a game in a long time. I'd always come back to it even though it's certifiably janky ass. Good game. Would buy.
It is incredibly satisfying to beat people up in this game; it may because it's so natural to the Indiana Jones setting, but it also could be tied to the excellent foley work tied to the punches. Honestly however, I don't remember much else about this game besides some frustrating boss fights. Definitely tempted to refresh my memory, though.
Definitely one of the better licensed games of its era. Very simple in its design and mechanics but everything feels satisfying enough to be rewarding and just bullshit enough to keep you humble. Genuinely shocked by how much I enjoyed it. Damn shame that these guys never got to finish their original trilogy game.
Its the long forgotten younger brother next to Fate of Atlantis and the Infernal Machine. It gets the vibe perfectly and is fun to play,. Well mostly fun, I do often stop playing when I actually get to the Emperors Tomb. Some of those platforming challenges will drive you into a early grave.
The perfect Indiana Jones gaming experience in my eyes.
Nails, not just the narrative tone and visual aesthetics of Spielberg's cinematic adventure serials to a T, but the game's combat.
The way the game's combat works is what sells the entire thing. Fights feel dirty and scrappy. Indy's hat can fly off during fights and you can pick it up again after you've defeated your enemy. It's the little touches like that which make "Indiana Jones and the Emperor's Tomb" so special imo.

Shockingly good for a licensed game! Janky in all the ways you'd expect, but it captures the feeling of the movies amazingly well.
irgendeinen geburtstag hat der viel zu junge matschi dieses spiel und 007: nightfire für den pc bekommen. ich habe nur gute erinnerungen an das spiel und ich hab es als kleiner racker auch durchgespielt. man kann da böse buben hauen oder sogar erschießen :O bisschen klettern und platformen mit einer recht beschissen steuerung aber egal damals war alles egal und sooo schlimm war es auch nicht ok?^^
SOLLTE ich safe saaaafe nochmal zocken vlt kriege ich da kindheitserinnerungen zurück es war heftig

Despite its problems, Emperor's Tomb is probably for better or worse the best Indiana Jones action game, not counting Fate of Atlantis. The fight controls, the uses of the whip, along with its artstyle, as well as its sound effects and music give off a very professionally made presentation that isnt stinking of a low budget title. It truly feels like care was taken to make this - for the time - a true Indiana Jones title.
However, the game isn't a well oiled machine. Everything about the movement and physics of the game is very janky. Even when playing with the analog controls properly set up, Indy somehow can't walk in a straight line. The game is also sometimes finicky about whether or not the whip can reach its whippable point. There are also no checkpoints aside from the level load in, so there are the general annoyances of dying near the end of a large level and having to start over again.
With everything set up though, this old windows game is able to be played pretty well on the Steam Deck despite the graphical issue that appears only if the level is outdoors.

shit im old
There are some parts that do not match reality, they bother me from time to time. But it made my childhood beautiful. When I was little, I wanted to be an archaeologist because of this game.
The best thing about this game is the hat physics I love how much attention they paid to how the hat falls off. The rest did not grab me
Greatest game of all time
I tried to complete this game for over 10 years. But with 17 I defeated it, and it felt great. Also this game is so good for a license game. It really feels like classic spielberg Indy
It definitely has all the elements that make up the attributes of the film. There's surprisingly impactful brawling, some gun play, exotic vistas and archaeological ancient platforming.
Whilst it has all these things, it masters none. It's all quite janky, but for a game of this period juggling so many elements, you forgive it. With all the things Indiana Jones has, you're just glad to see that they tried to include them where they could. And you appreciate that it feels like a relatively natural extension of the IP into the gaming space, even though its not the greatest game.

Exact type of game I'm always avoiding.
Awful hitboxes, awful jumping physics, awful "parkour". Indi feels so fucking slow and heavy.
At least the fighting being "Souls like" is quite satisfying and nice.
