Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge & Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis - Classic Adventure games by LucasArts gets an AI PC-Amiga AGA port

Classic LucasArts adventures Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge and Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis have received lovely new 256-colour AGA enhancements for the Amiga 1200 by dlfrsilver. Developed by a passionate adventure fan utilizing AI assistance to accelerate development from the PC, these updated enhancements elevate the original Amiga OCS versions into an 8-bitplane display with pristine 256-colour visual integration. This is done according to dlfrsilver, by re-engineering the game engines to support these changes. 

Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis - An amazing Adventure classic gets a BIG review by Cola Powered Gamer


When playing licensed video games, one will for the most of time encounter bad games, but there are exceptions. Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis is one such game, that understands its world and characters, and most importantly carries the spirit of the series.

Developed by LucasArts, and released in June 1992, the game was designed by Hal Barwood and Noah Falstein, who rejected the idea of using the unused movie script, and instead, they created their own script. They came up with a final concept, after searching for a suitable plot device. The game uses SCUMM Engine (Scripting Utility for Maniac Mansion), which was previously used in Maniac Mansion and The Secret of Monkey Island, although an updated version. Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis was the seventh game to use the SCUMM engine, and at the time required at least a 286 based PC, and there is also a CD-ROM talkie version. Also, the CD-ROM version required EMS memory enabled to load the voice data.

Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis Special Edition Demo 2.0 released!


Dungeon crawlers are not the only genre I'm a huge fan of, as if I showed my adventure game collection on the shelf gleaming with The Secret of Monkey Island, Quest for Glory, Kings Quest or even Indiana Jones that would prove I also have a soft spot for the Adventure genre too. Thankfully it seems others have a spot for games such as Indiana Jones, as just moments ago Patrik Spacek announced the release of the Indiana Jones Fate of Atlantis Special Edition Demo 2.0!
