For some reason this classic adventure title has, in recent years, been woefully underrated.
Sticking closely to the plot of Indiana Jones’s third cinematic adventure, Last Crusade takes you from scenic Venice (and its less scenic sewers) to an imposing Nazi-infested German castle, to the Alexandretta, where Jones must complete a series of cryptic tasks to recover the Holy Grail and save his father’s life (having seen the movie definitely helps here).
Overall, the experience is fun, challenging and surprisingly cerebral. Why this excellent game, in my opinion one of the best in LucasArts’ oeuvre, has fallen somewhat out of favor with the adventure game crowd is beyond me. A rating of “D”? Get real, Just Adventure.
