Advantages: EASY TO PLAY,DIFFICULT TO MASTER

Disadvantages: QUITE VIOLENT WITH LOTS OF FIGHTING

This is going to appeal to fans of Lego and fans of Indiana Jones alike, and anyone who has played Lego Star Wars will be familiar with the game play and format.

You are greeted with the familiar Indiana Jones soundtrack, lots of music on the DS can be pretty lame but this sounds great and also looks great as the game starts with Lego Indy going to the lost temple in the "story" mode.

There are two characters always together and you are able to switch between the two by pressing the X button as they have different attributes for example Indy has a whip and his first assistant has a shovel so can dig were Indy can't.Y button enables you to attack the enemy, Indy can punch or X button to whip, which is pretty cool and A button builds the various piles of Lego lying around which normally build something helpful like a platform or a switch to help you on your mission.

The touch pad is utilized by sliding up for example to use Indy's whip or to use the shovel, also used for winding handles and the like.

The main mission is to collect Lego buttons,extra lives and pieces of maps and artifacts which unlock secret stuff and also to complete all parts of the game.

I really like the Lego format and this is no exception, Maybe I am a bit over the top but with Indy whipping and punching and one of his assistants hitting people over the head with his shovel, this is pretty aggressive stuff and the 7+ warning is about right.

A worthy addition to the Lego family and has plenty of life in it as this is going to take a fair time to complete and then objectives such as getting ALL the items in free mode will make it even more playable.

Summary: GOOD VALUE WILL LAST WELL AND FUN TO PLAY
