Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade - Indiana Jones Wiki - a Wikia wiki
Indiana says it is the Ark of the Covenant, to which Elsa asks "are you sure?" Indiana replies "pretty sure." Indiana would know this because the focus of Raiders of the Lost Ark was his search for the Ark. There is also a musical cue from Raiders playing during this exchange.
Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade was released on laserdisc and VHS in 1990 and on DVD in October 2003.

 Review: Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade
Being somewhat new to adventure games (I've only been playing for two years), I figured the old grognards on the newsgroups knew what they were talking about when they claimed that the Indiana Jones games were some of best that LucasArts offered.
Unfortunately (like most games that use the internal speaker), music is incredibly sparse, save for important parts or plot junctures.
You would assume that, since this is an Indiana Jones game, the classic Raiders of the Lost Ark theme music would be used full force in those few parts where they do use musical accompaniment.

In the game, there is a stage where Indy and Henry must find their way through the zeppelin to the plane and Indy fights guards along the way.

 Indiana Jones Is Back!
Lucasfilm Games recognizes that there are two different types of gamers and have tailored a different game for each: an arcade game for the joystick set and a graphic adventure for adventurers.
As of this writing, plans are to let gamers begin the game in either of the first two scenes or continue the game from the last point of play.
Lucasfilm Games is one of the leaders in the development of animated graphics adventures, thanks in no small measure to SCUMM, their proprietary "Script Creation Utility for Maniac Mansion." Now in its fourth version, SCUMM is an integrated system for creating adventure game scripts that control all elements of a graphic adventure.

 The Adventure Games Hall of Fame ==> www.adventure-hall.com
This game differs somewhat from the adventure games we've come to expect from LucasArts in a sense that it is not a pure adventure.
On the other hand, the smart adventurer can bypass the action sequences easily by putting in a little extra work, solving all the puzzles and the mazes can be easily mapped, leaving everything up to your brain (and your patience).
The Last Crusade clearly isn't your typical adventure game and is a long stretch from the usual LucasArts style adventures but it can still be fun if you know what to expect.

What makes this next adventure so exciting for Indy and gaming fans, is what Lucas Arts calls the Euphoria engine, upon which the foundation of the game is built upon.

They knew I could paint so they brought me back in to do the cover for Zak McKraken as well as a bunch of illustrations for the fake tabloid newspaper in the packaging and a little alien standee that was meant to display the free nose glasses that were part of the story.
In the early games the animated characters were so small and minimal that the covers were an opportunity to see what the characters might really have looked like fully illustrated.
If there's a wider audience for adventure games I would guess that they're not as interested in sitting down for fifty hours of game play all at once.

When LucasArts (then LucasFilm Games) released an adventure game based on blockbuster movie Indiana Jones and The Last Crusade in 1989, an action game based on the same movie was concurrently released, but never racked up as much sales or recognition as its adventuring brethren.
This game may be fun for a while, but soon the fun of watching Indy use his trademark whip wears off, and fans are left with a marginally above-average platform game where each new level looks suspiciously like the last.
Overall, this is another powerhouse license botched by game developers, and a reminder of why LucasArts should stick to its proven expertise in adventure games.

Immediately Indiana Jones knows that the Nazis (natural bad buys) are looking for the Ark of the Covenant (which can be used as a weapon of unspeakable power) and somehow he must bet them to it for the sake of the world.
The adventure sequences such as the mine car chase, and rope bridge are probably the most daring, dangerous, and death defying of Indy's career.And I've seen Gunga Din, and so anyone who's never seen the Temple Of Doom, please don't be fooled by that one.

A Nazi agent has stolen a statue that Indiana Jones has uncovered, but he drops some papers about the lost city of Atlantis, and it turns out that the agent is working for Dr. Hans Ubermann, a physicist who is trying to build a nuclear bomb using a material called orichalcum.
Based (obviously) around the film of the same name, Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom is a game that excels greatly on various levels, that lets itself down slightly in the most important aspect of all.
Point-and-click adventure games were rare at the time, so we can be indulgent with this one.
