Game Introduction
Obviously, this game was patterned after the movie Indiana Jones And The Temple Of Doom. The music sounds like it is right out of the movie and the digital audio clips are excellent. The graphics are colorful and do a good job of conveying the situation. Getting to play Indiana and whipping everything in sight is a blast -- just do not get carried away or Mola Ram shows up and flings flaming hearts at you!
Game Play
Whip everything that moves, even things that do not move. You can whip the cobras and watch their gory death. You can whip piles of bones and skeletons for extra points. Repeatedly whipping Thuggee guards is fun and you get to hear them wail in pain "Ooodleedlee...Ooodleedlee.." Your whip also lets you swing across holes. "Woah!" The minecart is loads of fun. "We walk from here!"I think the sankara stage is pretty easy though. "I'm not leaving without those stones!"
On the medium and hard levels selectable at the beginning of the game by entering the corresponding doors Indy must escape on the rope bridge and face Mola Ram once and for all, after obtaining all three Sankara stones. Playing the easy level will not include this level the first time Indy nabs all three stones. Instead, the screen will just mention that Indy escaped on the rope bridge before starting again on a tougher cage level.

Cheats, Tricks, Bugs, and Easter Eggs
At the difficulty select screen, whip all the hanging skeletons and both snakes to receive a 5,000 point "Completion Bonus." Whipping all the gas cannisters in the cage stage gives a "Pyro Bonus" and whipping every bone pile and snake in the altar stage gives a bonus also. When on suspension bridges over lava flows, whip enemy guards until they fall in the lava for additional bonus points!
At the end of the bridge stage, whipping Willie would lasso her and bring her in for a kiss, giving you bonus points, while Short Round says, "Knock it off!"
In the cage stage, instead of clambering down short ladders, it is quicker to fall to the lower level. Also, you can reach across a gap to whip certain cages instead of following paths and ladders to them.
