Nazi German troops are equipped with MP-40 sub-machine guns. This custom dates only from the Manchu conquest of China in the 17th century, so it did not exist in Qin Shi Huang's time at all, and it had been abandoned by the period in which the game is set. Chinese men of both the 1930s and circa 210BC are depicted with shaved foreheads and ponytails. Indy can still punch the living daylights out of them, though they can take more punishment than any other standard enemy.
The Black Dragon Guards wear classical Chinese armor.
If Mei Ying falls down a bottomless pit, she will jump right back up after a couple of seconds. During the boss fight against the Kraken, the beast will automatically push Indy back to the middle of the arena as it returns to its position behind the pillars, so that Indy can't get devoured by mistake if he's still too close to the area while trying to apply the demo charges. This, however, does not apply to unique items such as Indy's revolver, his whip, the canteen, or puzzle items, as there would be no way of recovering these if they fell into a bottomless pit. If Indy is carrying a weapon, and gets knocked down, he might drop it, allowing his enemies to pick it up and use it against him.
The Kraken is an incredibly grotesque octopoid monster with a ring of orange eyes and barbed appendages around his mouth cable of spitting out jellyfish to drag victims to its maws.
Animalistic Abomination: The crocodile inside the inner sanctum of Koru Watu is a gargantuan, albino beast which constitutes the last but efficient line of defense of the temple. All Germans Are Nazis: All Germans in the game are members of the SS or the Gestapo, or employed by them. Advancing Boss of Doom: The final confrontation with Von Beck has him pilot a drill tank in order to crush you. Action Prologue: A deliberate Shout-Out to the opening sequence of Raiders of the Lost Ark. Action Girl: Mei Ying has serious martial-arts skills, but see Damsel in Distress below. Achilles' Heel: The Kraken can be forced away from his nest by shooting it enough times in the eyes, while the demonic Kong Tien can be defeated by destroying the three Dragon Orbs around him with Pa Cheng after he's stunned and has to lift the barrier. On the way, he must run, puzzle-solve, platform-jump and fight his way past ivory hunters, Nazis, Turkish mercenaries, Nazis, Chinese gangsters, Nazis and Chinese cultists, before finally entering the titular tomb for the climax. The story is set in 1935, just before the events of Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, and involves a quest to explore the tomb of the first Emperor of China, Qin Shi Huang, and retrieve the mystical Heart Of The Dragon.Īfter a Forced Tutorial level in the jungles of Ceylon, the quest proper takes Indy to Prague, Istanbul, Hong Kong and on into China.

It was released on February 24th, 2003 for Xbox Note (and it was later made compatible with the Xbox 360 and Xbox One), then ported for Macintosh and Windows on March 25th, 2003, and for PlayStation 2 on June 26th, 2003. (I don't have an XBox controller at the moment, but would consider getting one just for this game, if it'd make the playthrough more natural).Indiana Jones and the Emperor's Tomb is a third-person Action-Adventure game developed by The Collective (using the same engine they developed for Buffy the Vampire Slayer) and published by LucasArts. If anyone has a better solution to control mapping for this game, I'd love to hear it, as I absolutely adore the game and would love a simpler control map for the PC. Close: L Alt (Again, not a vital function, as the inventory closes itself after a selection, or on timeout)ġst Person: F (Not the handiest, but it works) Prev: - (best solution I have is using Inv. Rope Climb: T (very clunky, but the easiest solution I could find) The best solution I have at the moment (after two sessions with the game) is as follows:

However, customising the controls for PC has turnied out to be awkward. I was absolutely delighted when I saw it on GOG, and purchased it immediately. I loved this game growing up on the PS2, and didn't even know there was a PC version of it out there.
