First there was LEGO Star Wars, now there is LEGO Indiana Jones! The legendary archaeologist comes to you in the LEGO style video game. Each of the first three movies is a chapter in the game, and each chapter has to be completed before moving on to the next one. After each chapter is completed, the ‘free play’ is unlocked and you can go back to unlock more games and characters. Players can use the stylus as Indiana Jones uses his whip to swing across an open pit, fight off his enemies, or kiss the leading lady! Another player can join in the fun with a wireless connection. You can and in some instances have to switch between playing the various characters. Different characters can do different things; to help Indy out, Satipo can dig up objects with his shovel and Indy can use his whip to help them across various obstacles. This game is great for showing the need for individual skills and how beneficial they are to the game and the other players.
