Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade

Game Gear

Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade: The Action Game is a side-scrolling action-adventure based on the 1989 film of the same name. As in the movie, your quest is to find the Holy Grail. Before that, you must find the Cross of Coronado, the Knight's Shield, and your father's Grail Diary across four levels: the caves underneath Utah, a moving circus train, the Venetian Catacombs of Castle Brunwald, a German Zeppelin, and finally the Grail Temple. Indy is armed with his trusty whip to fight off foes, and can also engage in hand-to-hand combat. The Zeppelin level includes a boarding pass meter that diminishes over time—once gone, guards become more alert. The final level features a beating heart representing Indy's father's health; you must reach the Grail before time runs out.
