Indiana Jones and The Great Circle is no fool’s gold, and the only pitfalls you’ll need to watch out for are those the game has laid deliberately. Developer MachineGames has delivered not just a love letter to the original movies, but a rip-roaring serial adventure that can stand proudly beside its elders in the archives.
Now that we are finally seeing an Indiana Game that, shall we say rocked the boat, I would hope that we might see some of these titles resurface and maybe give some insight into wonderous stories which have yet to be told.
Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is a great game that is held back by some technical difficulties. Other than that, it is a rollercoaster ride that you cannot get enough of.

The Great Circle isn't without faults, but MachineGames' accomplishments are so staggering that it doesn't matter. It captures the heart and imagination the same way that Spielberg and Mangold did with their stories of the beloved archeologist. Welcome back, Indy.

Indiana Jones and the Ancient Circle definitely looks like the new masterpiece game in terms of graphics. The settings are detailed and with great attention to detail. Definitely a source of memories for fans of the movie saga, it will be talked about and for a long time. Perhaps the only flaws are the too simple puzzles and the very basic NPC interaction system.

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle convinces both fans of the film series and newcomers with a gripping adventure based on the classic Indiana Jones flair. The mixture of action-packed combat, clever puzzles and atmospheric stealth elements makes for an entertaining and varied experience. The decision to play the game from a first-person perspective in particular promotes immersion and allows the player to delve even deeper into the world of the archaeologist. The graphical implementation provides coherent visual impressions, even if the high performance of the engine is dependent on powerful hardware and technical problems such as the fluctuating frame rate can spoil the enjoyment of the game. The sound design and background music from the well-known films also provide a successful atmosphere that skillfully captures the Indiana Jones feeling. Nevertheless, it is above all the charming details that make the game stand out - from the interactive dialogues to the humorous cutscenes and the lovingly designed locations. Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is an entertaining adventure that is both in the tradition of the films and integrates modern gameplay elements. A must-have for explorers and Indiana Jones fans, even if minor technical flaws tarnish the overall impression somewhat.
