As Indiana Jones, you’ll travel to 1935 China to prevent a powerful artifact from falling into evil hands. This globe-spanning adventure pits you against evil Nazis and the Asian underworld. It’ll take more than just a trusty whip and pistol to avoid the perils of the Emperor’s Tomb.

The value story

It has never been cheaper than $1.79. That was February 2019. 32 discounts in the 8 years on record. They run about 65 percent off, roughly 8 weeks apart. Today it is at full price. The last sale was about 13 weeks ago, and on this game's rhythm the next one tends to arrive within 8 weeks.

On value it sits in the top 1 percent of its genre. It is better reviewed than 96 percent of its genre. The nearest things to it, Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver 2 (2001) ($6.99, scores 17) and Tomb Raider: Legend ($6.99, scores 73), are both worse buys on this math.

This site sampled 366 of its Steam-purchase reviews; 2 were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written May 2020 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 84 percent of the 200 reviews written there were positive, against 92 percent overall, and those are 20 percent of everything written about it.
