Stop! Before you read this, you should know that this is part three of “The Expansive (and often Bizarre) History of Indiana Jones Games”. You may want to check out part one and part two before you tackle this entry.
LEGOIndiana Jones: TheOriginalAdventures (2008)
PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Wii, PC, Mac, DS and PSP
After the roaring success of the LEGO Star Wars games, Traveller’s Tales set their sights on George Lucas’ next most beloved Harrison Ford franchise, Indiana Jones. Even in this early stage of the Lego videogame franchise, it was clear that the “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” mentality was in full force. If you’ve played any LEGO game released in the last 15 or so years, you know what to expect here. There are things to collect, puzzles to solve and button-mashy combat sequences to partake in, all while running through the events of the first (only?) three Indiana Jones films in an appropriately goofy and dialogue-free style.
While the LEGO games have grown more complex in recent years, this is about as simple as they ever came.

DIDJ
Did you ever wish Indy could have been your professor? Do you feel like your education would have progressed at a much faster pace if a Harrison Ford-shaped figure had been standing at the front of your classroom the entire time? Indiana Jones, the educational title for the DIDJ, might just be the game you’re looking for! That is, if you’re around eight years old or need some serious help with adding, subtracting or multiplying.
