Even as Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny is floundering in theaters, longtime fans of the original raider of tombs are remembering a beloved video game that many are proclaiming to be an overall classic of the franchise.
Indiana Jones and the Emperor’s Tomb came out in 2003 for the sixth generation of consoles and has enjoyed something of a resurgence of interest in the wake of the latest film, as one Reddit user pointed out on the r/IndianaJones subreddit.
Multiple users even proclaimed it to be the closest thing to being Indiana Jones in game form you could get.
One might think that you have to invest in a retro game console to experience Emperor’s Tomb — as I once thought — since it came out on the PlayStation 2 and Xbox back in the day. For you see, I too became aware of the game only recently on a retro gaming YouTube channel, called Retro Rebound. However, there is a more streamlined way to get your hands on the game than having to dust off an old console.
To my delight, I found that Emperor’s Tomb was on sale on Steam through July 13, costing only $2.09. Hence, I picked it up for myself a couple of days ago. Even though I don’t have the most powerful PC, the game is pretty lightweight due to being 20 years old at this point; I probably have a GIF file larger than Emperor’s Tomb.
Though I downloaded and installed the game, I have yet to crack into it due to being busy. Now that I am seeing all these other rave reviews for it, I can’t wait to feel like the whip-wielding hero! By the way, even if you miss the sale, the title is only $5.99 normally, so it won’t even break the bank at full price.
