Every Indiana Jones Video Game Ranked Worst To Best

2. Lego Indiana Jones: The Original Adventures

On the back of the immense success of the Lego Star Wars series, Lego and Travellers Tales joined forces again to bring another fabled LucasFilm property into the world of coloured bricks.

Lovingly crafted and full to the brim with references, Lego Indiana Jones transforms all the key sequences and events of the original trilogy of movies into co-op based adventures, with plenty of humour offset by clever uses of Indy's weapons. Players could also take control of a ton of different characters, heroes and villains alike, some of which had particular phobias built into their design that forced a quick character change in order to complete a puzzle or get past an obstacle.

Lego Indiana Jones might be lighter in tone than the rest of the games on this list, but it's the closest thing most if not all of the games here have come in translating the action and adventure of every important moment in Indy's original movies. It also marked many firsts, from the chance to explore Barnett College where Indy teaches, to controlling the likes of Marion Ravenwood or Dr. Marcus Brody.

Born in Ireland and raised in Australia, Mark still wishes his Tetris and Mario Kart skills could translate to the real world more than just writing about games for nearly 20 years. Still, can't complain.
