Indiana Jones & the Last Crusade: The Action Game was released in 1989 by Lucasfilm Games, based on the film of the same name. The game appeared on a number of 8-bit & 16-bit computers and consoles including, ZX Spectrum, Amstrad CPC, Commodore 64, Atari ST, Commodore Amiga, DOS, Sega Master System, Megadrive, Genesis and Game Gear.
There are also two completely different games for the Nintendo NES and the Nintendo Gameboy called Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, one released by Taito, and another by Ubisoft, with no subtitle to differentiate the two versions.
As in the movie (and the graphic adventure), your task is to find the Holy Grail. Before this can be done you must find the Cross of Coronado, the Knight of the First Crusade's Shield and your fathers Grail Diary. Each of which must be picked up in one the first three levels in order to progress.
Overall this makes for a four-level arcade adventure combining climbs, exploration (with several routes through each level, and some traps) and puzzles. Indy is armed with his trusty whip to fight off foes, but can also get involved in hand-to-hand combat. The first level takes place in caves underneath Utah, where you must find the Cross of Coronado, before reaching the moving circus train strewn with enemies and carridges full of circus animal's. The second level comprises of a combination of the Venetian Catacombs, where you need to pick up the Knights Shield, and Castle Brunwald in Austria, where you must assend to the highest point of the level, but watch out for that lightening!. The thrid level takes place upon German Zeppelin which is full of German Guards and Ladders. You must make your way through the Zeppelin, find your father's Grail Diary and make good your escape. You start the level with a full boarding pass which diminishes over time. Once gone, the guards become more alert and move faster. New or replenshing boarding passes can be found around the level which will slow the guards down again. The final level is a race against time and to reach the Holy Grail itself, before Indy's father succumbs to heart trauma, following a gunshot wound. This is represented by a beating heart on screen witch diminshes over time, once fully diminshed the game is over! The final level features the saw blade traps and lettered flooring from the movie. Here Indy must walk on the correct letters to spell out the name of God, otherwise he will fall to his death and the game will be over!
