Let's Play Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis #01: Introduction

Life is rarely dull for Indiana Jones. Sure, he teaches people, but he had more adventures in a couple of years than most people do their entire lives and just as the world is soon to be dragged into another war, he's about to be tangled up in a terrible mess with some terrible people. Indy doesn't know it yet, but the world is at stake and it's up to him to save it... but he can't do it alone.

Indiana Jones and the Fate of Altantis is a point and click adventure game of the 90s, for good and for ill. It's graphics are beautiful, the voice acting impressive - if a little low in sound quality - and your ways of interacting with the world are limited to a set of clearly defined commands. Lucasarts were pretty good at avoiding moon logic puzzles and softlock situations but having never played this game before, I can't say if we'll encounter either of those here.

Those are considerations for later, however. For now, I will sit back and enjoy the wonderful introduction which does a fantastic job of setting up the story.

Indy is so cool he drives his car straight ignoring roads, rivers and everyhing else. :)

Guy: "Mein name ist Smith. Show me der artifact, schnell!"
Indy: "Hmm nothing suspicious here."

2:53 "Potsherd" is an older word, but it *is* actually a word, even if I had to google it myself. It literally does just mean pot shard though

"Can I give the phone booth to the taxi?". Ah don't ever change, Kiko. This game is a beauty.

I remember getting quite impressed with... pretty much everything about this game back in the day. Voices, graphics, and story. This is going to be a very entertaining trip down memory lane.

Ooooh, one of the first games I spent hours watching someone else (my dad) play! The nostalgia <3

[ARescueToaster]

I never played this but I've always heard great things! Also, I believe I said it in another video but it feels weird to watch one of your newer videos rather than being stuck in ~200 episode series from a decade ago. Really looking forward to following your LP of this!

[perreman]

Now that's nostalgia. Thanks for this one Kiko, this will bring back a lot of memories.

Kiko you NEVER played Fate of Atlantis? Wow! You are in for such a nice trip, I envy you. I have replayed this game numerous times, going over all paths many time...but man, the first time I played it, my mind was blown. This is one of the BEST adventure games of all time. The story is just amazing as you will see. Enjoy it!!!

[MisuVir]

Aha! Another of my childhood favourites. I must've played this when I was 10 or 11. I loved how you could take multiple paths through the game, great for replayability.

[Daelaron]

Ah, one of my favourite games ever growing up! I played it so many times back then that I can still vividly see some of the puzzles and how to solve them when I close my eyes haha...

[AndrewTaylorNintyuk]

A game as old as me, and the true 4th Indiana Jones Movie

[Genius]

This brings back memories! Had the CD-ROM version of this back in the 90's... played it at least 3 or 4 times! Still have the CD-ROM - wonder if it worked on latest PC - maybe I'll try it out again sometime! I better keep quiet if you not played before other than to say... for some puzzles there are actually multiple solutions!

[JohnnyReb]

This is my absolute favorite Lucasarts Point-and-click adventure game. Yes, I love this one even more than Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge, and that's saying a lot.

[Samsaptaka]

Now I miss my family's old Amiga. Edit: And, the tail end of the credits just reminded me that I played this game back in the day.

[tehhamstah]

This is one of my favourite games ever! Interested to see how you approach the different paths available in the game!

[evilman]

I’m glad you’re playing that game. It was my first ever adventure game!

[cleverlyblonde]

The Lucas Arts stories are awesome. I love both Sierra and Lucas Arts games 🥰

[playingwithfira]

I just wanted to let you know your channel has inspired me a lot! That's all, I hope you have a nice day :)
