Money Glitch?

[Dr. Faustus]

Is it intended, that i cant take my money with me to previous spots?

Like: i got 2500 Money in the Jungle (where i dont need it anymore), but when i travel back to Vatican, i only got 180 Money there. Than i travel to Gizeh and i got 800 Money there. I travel back to the Jungle and my money is up to 3000 again?

Adventure-Points are the same no matter where i travel, but money isnt. Problem is: i need my money in Vatican, cause its the only destination, where i need to buy things.

If it does matter: XBox-Version of the Game.

different types of currencies

there is enough money in each zone to buy everything available.

Still terrible game design.

not really, currency exchanges wasn't really a big thing in the 30's especially in egypt, vatican city and siam.

It isn't an exchange rate issue. When you "go back" you are actually just picking up from the time and spot when you left the area (assuming you don't have the travel bug that resets the maps.) The plot assumes that the areas are linearly traversed only once and not that Indy is repeatedly flying back and forth between continents just to pick up a random snapshot or missed artifact. If you had 180 "Vatican Fun Bucks" when you finished that area, you'll have the same when you return.

This bothers me because of the metroidvania aspects. I guess Indy forgot that he had a lighter and rebreather on his person in the Vatican? The lighter is purchased after you leave and the rebreather specifically involves a quest halfway around the globe. This seems like an attempt to pad the game length and give the illusion of more player agency than there otherwise would have been.

ok, i'll just put it down to a skill issue then.

indiana jones is an archaeologist and explorer, rather than just focusing on the former, try doing the latter

This.

The game breaks the immersion at every single opportunity for no reason, but Indy cant exchange some Money, because realism.

This idea is beyond bad.
