The Lego games are so much fun and Indiana Jones is no exception to that...however, there are so many snakes, spiders, and other creepy crawlers in this game as well. Even though it's a lego game, some of these levels are still surprisingly creepy.

User guide are always confusing, I haven't read it, no exception in this case. Range is good with no lack experience... more
