It looks like it would be so cool. In reality, it's about as cool as it appears to be. In this case, you new school gamer kids aren't being spoiled by your newfangled consoles and such; this game definitely blew. Why you'd even willingly devote 9+ minutes of your life to it is beyond me.
Back in our day, all you had was game design. Every game looked like balls. If it wasn't fun to play, it was dead in the water.
Hydlide. What a freaking ugly name for... well... anything. It sounds more like what you would call some crusty bile that a deer corpse would leak post-mortem.
Wow, this games crawls out of its grave of obscurity O_O! I vaguely remember this game... I think I was still in Legend of Zelda/Ghosts n Goblins land when my brother's friend got this for Christmas. They didn't play it long :/ they were never really RPG savvy.
What's with all the moments where you just stand around. Never played this game so I don't understand. At first I thought it was letting your magic recharge but you do it even when magic is full.
It restores HP: At lower levels it only restores when you're standing still on the grass, and walking on trees, rock, dirt, water etc drains HP. It's probably not managed as well as it could be.
Indiana Jones was made in 1981, Hydlide was made in 1984 for the NEC PC-6001 and 1989 for the NES. If this was settled in court, George Lucas and Steven Spielberg will win the case against T&E Soft.
I will give them credit though they did spell congratulations right

whooaah that,s just the greatest shtiest ending i,ve ever seen in a video game,and the music is perfect for if you want to burn your ears for a week.
and the menu is really great to learn how you get fooled and used to it by the most confused menu i,ve ever see.
getting disoriantated in this game is great for if you want to figure out where to go.
so please mom give that $100 dollars for this piece of fucking shitty game,hahaha lol.

There would be lawsuits up the ass if this music was in a video game today.

This game had very little potential. Too bad the makers didn't see it and try to make this game better.
Also doesn't the main character look like Adol from Ys 1 for the NES?

George Lucas and Steven Spielberg should've sued the fuck out of T&E Soft for that.

Understatement of the millenium, my friend.

The fact that the music makes you think that Indiana Jones is driving an ice cream truck is bad enough to not warrant playing it even once.

Probably one of the worst games ever made. I'm so glad I don't need to play it to experience how bad it is. All I need to do is see it in action.
