Indiana Jones & a Fate of Atlantis (as well mistakenly known as Indiana Jones 4) is a graphic adventure game, originally released around 1992, published by LucasArts. It was a seventh game to apply a SCUMM engine.

Plot

A back's plot was quite sophisticated, according to writings by Plato. Using a lead character from either the easily-known Indiana Jones film series but according to an original story, it caring Indy world health organization was asked by Marcus Brody & the certain Mr.Smith to locate a particular unknown idol from either the College museum. Whilst Indy comes back, in a statue it call for a little metal bead & Smith, to their surprise, steals the statue. These are revealed his rattling title is Klaus Kerner & he is an professional of the Third Reich and his next target is Sophia Hapgood.

Sophia Hapgood, an ex-lover of Indy, at present presents herself as a psychic, returning seminars just about Atlantis & communicating by having a Atlantean god-king Nur-ab-sal. Kerner plan her medallion, which she & Indy noticed inside Iceland and which helped her communicate with Nur-ab-sal. a race between Jones & the Nazis to find a mythological wasted continent of Atlantis begins, which may contain technology vital to a new of the globe, since Kerner witnessed that the metallic bead found in the statue was Orichalcum, the legendary metal that would give extreme power to machines & produce bombs. Kerner finds this retired when bringing a bead & statue to his mad scientist boss, Dr. Hans Ubermann.

In occasionally point, a team must buy The Hermocrates, the misused dialogue of Plato discussing Atlantis further than his former works (Timaeus and Critias). Indy visits pages that come attached to the Atlantis literature, prefer the Mayan pyramid, the Azores, Thera and Crete, & a plot tries to tie together numerous of the existent theories on Atlantis (which actually come independent and don't necessarily co-survive).

Technical Details
Sir thomas more innovative than a sooner Indiana Jones dangerous undertaking game, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, it featured a nod to originality by including ternion differing paths to the completion of the game & numbers of guide ways to solve puzzles. the streaming video player world health organization finished all the puzzles all told the choice, won a to the full I personally.Q. score. At one point within a game, the streaming video player may see in a dialogue sequence between deuce-ace paths: the Wits concentrating in puzzles, a Clenched fist other depending on clenched fist fights (a game involved a rudimentary engine for such fights), & the Team which combines two elements & features the chum character, Sophia Hapgood.

These are besides important for breaking by using a LucasArts dangerous undertaking game tradition of non permitting a streaming video player to die (though it was likewise potential to die at occasionally points within Last Crusade and Zak McKracken). When a streaming video player's demise, the short "what happened next" plot sum-up & the score pop up. To the streaming video player's benefit, a game handily alerts a streaming video player of imminent danger then that he or even she could play supplementary cautiously.

A task was led by Hal Barwood; Barwood also wrote a story & designed a game together by using Noah Falstein. A music was composed by Michael Land, Clint Bajakian, and Peter McConnell, based heavy upon a works of John Williams.

the game was re-freed around Video-ROM by having a to the full voiceover soundtrack in 1993.

A dangerous undertaking game was freed at the same time by owning Indiana Jones & A Fate of Atlantis: A Action Game, a remaking loosely ensuing the equivalent plot line, & belonging to the arcade-adventure genre. It never enjoyed wonderful popularity.

The 4-issue comic book mini-series based on a game's plot line was published by Dark Horse Comics in 1991 before the game was freed. There were as well uncorroborated rumor that a Fate of Atlantis franchise (called Indiana Jones 4) was the official precursor to the 4th motion-picture show.

Trivia
Bet on resource editing computer software such as ScummRev have reavealed that there is an unused ('secret') room in the gage code that didn't produce it to the final version. This room is Sophia's bedchamber, & lies next to her plundered professional. A software engineer must keep close at hand originally planned a bit of other action inside Sophia's flat, on the other h& thought that the presence of such a room and even more, an extra sequence would does'nt become vital to the gameplay. within the final version, completely that requires place in Sophia's home is a long dialogue inside her professional.

In the 'secret' bedchamber, a bit of objects may be identified by having ScummRev; this indicates that a computer programmer designed occasionally puzzle to become solved per streaming video player, apart from either the professional dialogue. Therein chamber, possibly Sophia mass produced her introduction as a playable character, then that a streaming video player got to guide her to, for instance, locate a orichalcum bead. One of a useable objects is labeled when Chuck the Plant, which is an inside joke at LucasArts & the nod to many former LucasArts games.

Chuck the Plant originally appears in Maniac Mansion, and down the road within Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade and Day of the Tentacle.

Sequels
