GamePro described it as a decent though unexceptional side-scroller. On release, Famicom Tsūshin scored the game a 25 out of 40. In order to play Temple of Doom and Last Crusade, the player must progress through the game or use a password. All three of the movies are featured in the game, but Raiders of the Lost Ark is the only one playable upon starting the game. If Indy dies in an area, the player restarts from the beginning of the current area.


Indiana Jones’ Greatest Adventures uses the same engine as the Super Star Wars series and is divided into 28 areas, many of them in side-scrolling view and others in driving stages. Once in a while, the game breaks the mold from the typical action and plunges the player into various other types of gameplay, such as flying a plane, riding a mine cart, and going down a mountain on a raft. Besides attacking, the whip can also be used as a method of swinging across pits. Occasionally a gun can be found that has unlimited ammo, and grenades are available in limited numbers. Jones's main method of attack is his bull-whip, but he can also damage enemies by punching or rolling into them. The game was re-released for the Wii's Virtual Console service on Novemand in the PAL region on Apfor 800 Nintendo Points.The game is primarily action based, and the player controls Indiana Jones through levels based on events of the movies. Like many third-party titles near the end of the Genesis' life, however, the game was shelved and was never released. Its release coincided with that of Super Star Wars: Return of the Jedi, also released by JVC and LucasArts and in the same platform style as the Super Star Wars trilogy.Ī Sega Mega Drive/Genesis port of the game was apparently completed and ready to be released between summer and autumn of 1995, and was reviewed in GamePro (#73, August 1995, rated 3.5 out of 5.0) and in Germany's GAMERS (November 1995 issue, rated 2 (B Grade). The story is told through cutscenes and text and is mostly faithful to the movies. The game was developed by Factor 5 and published by JVC Musical Industries, Inc. It is a video game adaptation of the Indiana Jones films Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981), Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (1984), and Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (1989).
