You should always keep enough energy in the slots powering the “Control” light.

FIN

Now go watch the movie and read the graphic novels, because both are significantly better than this game.

[Lord Indy]

Absolutely, I do think the game did good by the aesthetic. Even from the initial launch menu, it feels like it should. Props to the devs for making the game, it's difficult to do anything in such a niche genre.

[Puffy the Destroyer]

It's a shame.
I've said this elsewhere,
but If only the puzzles; script; & English dub where better, i'd have loved to see Woman Trap and Cold Equator get the adventure game treatment.
As far as presentation goes, this game nailed combining the aesthetic and atmosphere of the comics and movie pretty well.
