Play Indiana Jones and his Desktop Adventures Online

Remember those old-school top-down adventures where you could just jump in and explore? Indiana Jones and His Desktop Adventures nails that feeling—it’s like someone crammed a whole Indy movie into a tiny MS-DOS game. You start in some dusty 1930s Mexican town, whip in hand, and within minutes you’re dodging Nazis, digging up artifacts, and getting into fistfights with suspiciously aggressive locals.

The coolest part? Every time you play, the map reshuffles. Same key locations—temples, caves, that one bar where everyone looks like they want to stab you—but the paths between them change. One run might have you sneaking past guards to grab a golden idol, the next might drop you straight into a brawl with a giant snake. And yeah, you’ll die a lot. Health doesn’t regenerate, so every hit counts.

It’s got that classic LucasArts charm, just way more chaotic. You’ll steal pistols from knocked-out enemies, solve stupidly simple puzzles (why is there a chicken in this tomb?), and occasionally wonder if the procedural generation hates you. Perfect for when you want a quick 20-minute adventure that might end with Indy facedown in the dirt.

Each game uses different controls, most DOS games use the keyboard arrows. Some will use the mouse , "Alt" ,"Enter" and "Space bar".
