"The hottest movie of 1984 is now the hottest game of 1984"

The Adventures of Indiana Jones ,~* This limited role-playing series came from TSR, the company which dominated the role-playing market of the 70's and 80's with "Dungeons & Dragons". The series was started right after "Temple of Doom" and concentrated on stories from the Marvel comic series "Further Adventures of Indiana Jones".
,~* In this game players take the roles of actual movie characters. There are also solitaire rules for some adventures and special rules for two player quests. To play the adventures you need the basic set with the resource manual. The miniatures and the judges pack are not necessecary but useful additions to the game.
,~* The games are pretty good, featuring some very nice narrative writing and structure, as well as some very nifty paintings from the art department.
,~* These games are not sold by TSR any more. You can still find copies of the games in comicshops, scifi&fantasy-stores and on ebay.
