Traveler’s Tales’ Lego games have made Batman, Star Wars, and Indiana Jones licenses more accessible to kids with their games. The violence has been toned down and the adult content removed to make some of the stories great stories for kids to play through.  In their latest game, Lego Indiana Jones 2: The Adventure Continues, the focus is still on the kids, it’s not overdeveloped, and there’s a strong emphasis on simple tasks like going through a series of different enemies and collecting objects.

This game isn’t drastically different from the first Lego Indiana Jones game, if anything it’s less deep. Te levels featuring the old movies don’t take long to complete at all and although the new movie is fun to play through it too feels a little short. But again, you have to consider who this was developed for and kids tend to stay on the same game collecting items, etc. for a longer period of time.

There’s a new feature in the game where you bild levels and this is fun to get in there and really work with. The games deeper because it’s there, but the mode loses points because the selection is limited and you can’t share them online.

Lego Indiana Jones 2 is another nice addition to the Lego franchises. You’d like to see both parties go different ways after this though. I’d like to see a more mature Indiana Jones game and I’d like to see the Lego franchise tackle a different license. Still, for your little ones who aren’t big enough to watch all of the movies yet this is a good way for them to experience those stories in a child friendly game.
