Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull Mobile Game

Indiana Jones, a game only for hardcore gamers. Timing, timing, timing and timing is everything in the whole game. You have to keep your fingers ready to press the keys so hard in right timing to complete the game. THQ has made it self explanatory and with simple gameplay that there are only decent key functions. All that you have to press are the navigation keys and the fire button nothing else but so hard that your thumbs will get turned around for a while. THQ, this time has made it really simple with gameplay and has tried so hard to keep the story the same as in the movie. Since I saw the movie on the release date, I did know the story of the movie well before, I started playing the game.
But why is the game only for hardcore gamers? Here comes the reason. As I really don’t, I think most of you also don’t read the story that is displayed before the game starts. However, this game doesn’t need much explanation to start with it. But the story or the mission statement in each level is not that attractive. Almost all levels have the same gameplay and goals. All you have to do in each of the 4 levels is find 4 keys in each level. The keys are not placed that hidden to make the game hard. To be simple the gameplay is such simple that nothing makes it so hard. All that THQ has made to keep the game hard is the timing the player has to keep during the gameplay. You will have press 4 keys in sequence within a second. Especially in the special scenes where the player will be automatically moving towards the keys and will come back to the doors after fetching the keys.
The player will soon get bored of this game if he’s a casual game lover who cannot play the same stage for more than 10 times continuously. Soon in an hour or two most people will keep their phone away, I am sure. The amazing graphics has made the game look so realistic that it gives a look of 3D environment. But still THQ bothered to make the levels different and made it look all the same and only 2 different enemies. Of course its in line with the movie but I was expecting other characters from the movie.


Thiz is cool

If you are a hardcore gamer and if you have a weekend with no ideas, I suggest this game for you. You can waste your time on this for just the simple reason being good graphics and the name.
