Indiana Jones and the Staff of Kings

Indiana Jones and the Staff of Kings is a Wii and Nintendo DS video game that takes place after the third Indiana Jones film in 1939. The game is a return to the series' roots, featuring plentiful nazis to battle and biblical artifacts to collect. It even features its own unique leading lady and villain, the latter of which actually knew Indiana Jones during his college years.

Gameplay
Indiana Jones is controlled via the joystick on the nunchuck attachment. He can utilize his whip when the player presses down the B button on the Wii Remote and subsequently swings with it. The whip, one of Indiana Jones' primary items, can be used for a variety of things beyond battling enemies. For example, it can be used to grapple onto objects to swing to the other side of an impassable pit, grab onto objects and reel them in, and smash through obstacles. Indiana Jones' pistol also comes into play and can be aimed by simply using the Wii Remote's unique aiming functions. It only has six bullets, though it can be recharged in classic arcade fashion by directing the pointer off screen and selecting the shooting button. Finally Indiana Jones can also perform various gesture based fist attacks which are determined by what the player does with his Wii Remote and Nunchuck. There are, in all, three different types of attacks.

In the course of the game Indiana Jones will travel to various locations such as California to the Central Americas to an icy tundra. Each locale has its own share of challenges that Indiana Jones will need to overcome. In typical Indiana Jones fashion, there will be a variety of puzzles that the player will need to overcome, though the answer tot eh problems will not always be apparent to the player. In all there are three vehicles that Indiana Jones will control, including planes, motorcycles, and boats. Each have their own unique way of controlling them. The plane, for example, will require the player to hold the Wii Remote upright and use it as you would a large joystick to steer the plane. You can also press the B button to shoot bullets from the plane.
