History VideoGame / IndianaJonesAndTheLastCrusade

* PermanentlyMissableContent: The game has several [[PointOfNoReturn points of no return]], with the first one happening after Indy discovers the tomb of the Knight in Venice. Once he goes to the Castle, the library books, the painting and the fake Grail diary are no longer accesible. Without the painting, the pass and a second description of the grial are lost, and even with it, you can fail to pick those two items and still leave Brunwald Castle. There also only one chance to steal the tickets in the airport, as the pertinent dialogue option is gone after the first usage.

* ArtisticLicenseHistory: The tough ticker taker mentions he won a boxing Gold Medal in the 1934 Olympics. There were none that year, with the closest being Berlin 1936 and Los Angeles 1932.

* NPCAmnesia: Averted both the password variant and this trope in general by making you fist-fight any guards you fail to bluff your way past. Also, if an already bluffed guard sees Indiana in an attire different than the one used for his cover story, the guard will spot the ruse and become hostile. There's however one guard who won't object after Indy goes out of a window only to return later throuh a door, as long as he is still in Nazi uniform.

** Even worse is right near the beginning of the game, where you need to find a piece of "sticky tape" stuck to a fallen bookshelf, as said object is only a few pixels wide. It's more visible in the 256 colors virsion.

* AcceptableBreaksFromReality : [[AliensSpeakingEnglish Nazis Speaking English]]

* HundredPercentCompletion: The game has "Indy Quotient" as a score. It's two separate scores: one for what you had gained during the current playthrough, and another one which kept track of all score-giving actions you have accomplished in the game on any play. To gain full score in the latter includes doing things which are [[GuideDangIt nearly impossible]] or result in an instant death, such as punching Hitler in public.

* DiscOneNuke: At the point where you meet Adolf Hitler, you have to offer him one of your inventory items to sign to continue the game. You can offer him the Grail Diary as in the movie, which does nothing, or it's possible to have him sign a travel pass, which will automatically let you bypass ''all'' Nazi roadblocks by showing it, avoiding a lot of dialogue and other inventory/fighting puzzles. A third option is to have him sign a copy of ''Mein Kampf'', which is only useful to gameplay in that it will allow you to bribe ''one'' road-guard.

* PlotCouponThatDoesSomething: Henry's Diary of the Grail, with vital information for the quest.

* SelfDestructingSecurity: The Holy Grail is protected by many layers of secrets, guards and traps. The final resort, however, is that the Grail can never pass beyond "The Great Seal". Doing so results in the place self destructing and the Grail being LostForever if you fail to retrieve it.

** The crossed references needed to identify the true Grail -it's random every game- can be missed in Venice (by design if the wooden plug is removed before examining the contiguous room) and in the castle if Indiana didn't pick up the -[[LostForever inaccessible by then]]- painting at Henry's house. Not fatal per-se but it makes the deadly last puzzle a [[LuckBasedMission luck based pick]]. Aggravated in many versions that don't include the booklet with the off-game information needed to deduce the matter.

The first (and the most well known) is an AdventureGame with painted cinematic screen-by-screen backgrounds, while the second was subtitled "the action game" is a standard PlatformGame. Another console game with the same name was released years later; these two are [[FanonDiscontinuity mostly forgotten]] today.

** In some versions Indiana can be banned from the library. If you keep digging the wrong slabs, a guard will escort you out and you won't be able to enter the building anymore. This is changed in later versions to a NonStandardGameOver if you get it wrong three times.

* ActorAllusion: Well, to Creator/HarrisonFord, anyway:
** In Indy's office there is a [[StarWars thousand-year-old falcon]], it means a lot to him.
** In one line of dialogue, Indy introduces himself as "[=Robert McFalfa=]", a nod to the Bob Falfa character played by Ford in ''AmericanGraffiti''.

-->''I'm selling these fine leather jackets.''

** Indiana's office is full of them, the Sankara stones from ''IndianaJonesAndTheTempleOfDoom'' and artifacts from ''SamAndMax'', VideoGame/ZakMcKrackenAndTheAlienMindbenders, ''VideoGame/ManiacMansion'' and ''StarWars''.

** To GeorgeLucas' ''StarWars'' and ''AmericanGraffiti'' as mentioned above in ActorAllusion.

* TempleOfDoom. With {{DurableDeathtrap}}s.

Two video games by Creator/LucasArts released in 1989, based on the popular ''IndianaJonesAndTheLastCrusade'' movie.

In 2009 the game was re-released on the PC, directly downloadable through {{Steam}}.

The plot closely follows, and [[AdaptationExpansion expands upon]] , the film of the same name. As the game begins, Indiana Jones has returned to his college, after reclaiming the Cross of Coronado. He is approached by businessman Walter Donovan, who tells him about the Holy Grail, and of the disappearance of Indy's father.

* PublicDomainArtifact: The Holy Grail.

* ICantUseTheseThingsTogether.

* BoxingBattler: While the films never portray Indy's hand-to-hand combat skills as anything more than Good Old Fisticuffs, this game shows him sparring with Barnett College's boxing coach in his off-hours. This comprises the game's combat tutorial. It's explicitly noted in dialogue that this is his way of practicing for pummeling Nazi agents.
