I hate to do this because I love and do enthusiastically recommend this game, but this version is terrible and should be avoided.

For years, we've been plagued with compatibilty problems with this game; crashes, resolution/ scaling problems, incompatible 32bit installer... you name it, this game has probably suffered from it. Until just the other week, anyway, when GOG released it. Much of the stability problems were fixed, and lo! finally the game scaled properly in higher resolutions. Sure, the game still has its problems-- it's been buggy since the day it was released, but for once it ran relatively well on modern systems. The GOG version was and is a revelation. The biggest problem was being unable to rebind controls in game without a crash, but it could be worked around.

Now Steam releases their version with a new Launcher that works well, the ability to rebind controls without crashing, and a much needed ability to default movement to run without having to hold a second key. All sounds fine, except all the resolution and scaling problems fixed in the GOG release are present again here! And the opening animations are just as jittery and unwatchable as they were with the old stock installer from the CD-ROM on a modern system. Why?! Why does the GOG version fix these problems but the Steam version does not!? The other improvements are inconsequential when you consider that the game doesn't play correctly unless you seriously downsize the resolution.

This is absolutely a shame, and unless it gets addressed in a future update, I must unfortunately warn all away from buying this. Go buy the GOG version instead, you'll be much happier. It's really a wonderful adventure with great level design, addictive puzzle/ platforming, excellent voice acting from the great Doug Lee, and of course a story by Hal Barwood-- there's a lot to recommend! I just recommend that you play it elsewhere.

It's archaic, but the archaic kind of good, where it's fun and kind of charming. Problem here really lies with the versions available on pc.

On one hand, the GOG version has a problem where it crashes when trying to rebind the kb/m controls, so you're left with a version that supports widescreen resolutions (despite the game always locked at a 4:3 aspect ratio) but one that isn't really that playable unless you're comfortable with the default controls.

The Steam version on the other hand solves the keybindings issue, but doesn't support widescreen resolutions. So you're left with in a "pick your poison" kinda situation.

Sad thing, because the game seems great.

This game is truly a masterpiece. However, this Steam version here is rubbish. Now you can adjust the resolution to 1080p but you get a bug in the game's HUD and you can't finish the game due to very crude bugs. The lack of attention to the PC version is ridiculous.

Even paying a low price I only managed to play half the game and with several bugs. And I had to use a folder with several saves at key points in the game to avoid bugs that weren't letting me progress.

I expected much more.
I will definitely ask for a refund.

Although I love this game, it doesn't work! I tried to open in different compatibility modes but none of them worked. Try to search in the internet and only found people with same problem but with no fix. Steam shouldn't release old games without been totally compatible with the current OS

Doesn't launch at all on my Windows 10, Nvidia 1060 GTX. Tried several fixes online and none of them work. Look at the Steam community forum and you'll see this is a known issue that is common and has never been resolved.

Doesn't work. The first cutscene plays, but then there are just artifacts and flickering that are difficult to describe, but the game is 100% unplayable. Can't find any solution to fix it.

Despite utilizing the support threads on Steam, I could not get this game to even start.

The controls make this unplayable. Indy moves so slow and I keep getting stuck on nothing and I have to look up a walk through because I get stuck every 5 seconds. I've played this game for 30 minutes and I keep dying over and over. Even when I look up what to do it's still hard. I love the old graphics and voice acting and music but the game is so unplayable I can't recommend it

After putting this game off since release and attempting a run-through recently before playing the newest instalment of Indiana Jones, I can say for sure that this game has not aged well.

The controls are clunky, as I expected, but even worse are the janky game mechanics. It plays like a less-refined Tomb Raider with an Indiana Jones skin. Long jumps, where sometimes you make them and sometimes you don't, appear to be completely random if you tick the box of yes you'll make it or no you'll fall to your death.

I tried this both on my laptop and on my Steam Deck and it was all jank all the time on either.

Unless there is a major update, which I highly doubt would happen, I would recommend avoiding in this day and age.
