Owned it for a very short time. May be worth having again but the notorious issues with optos, upper playfield, and saucer made the game less appealing. I LOVE the theme and wish wish wish that it would get remade with the bugs worked out, but know that will never happen. If you can obtain one that is dialed in and actually works - I could see this game as being fun for a long time. Unfortunately, that was not my experience - even after professional restoration and upgrading…

I have had this in my collection since 1998 and is my all time favorite game to play. I am in the middle of a thorough cleaning and re lamping with Comet L.E.D's, Pinsound speakers and sound board. Almost done and cant wait till I can play it.

Great game. Made well for a 90s pin as in quality. The only thing I dislike about this game is its too cartoony for a IJ theme

Best wide body game I've played. It was either TZ or IJ and after playing both IJ came home with me as its way more friendly to play and is a more positive and funny game to play with my kids.
I have a WOZ which is also a wide body and it's a beautiful game but it's no way as much fun as IJ.
I have Cheetah another wide body but still not as cool as IJ.
I love how it has so many different video screen challengers (Bar Gun Fight - Choose Wisely - Cart Canyon)
The upper playfield The Path of Adventure is another awesome part of the game which is cool to play through.
I have an after market up graded speaker set up in mine so it really adds to that cinematic experience.

Side Note! - Just watch the old cods on that gun handle, can have ya talkin like a chipmunk & make ya bloody eye's water a bit ... and then some!!!

One of the best of all times! Missions, flashing lights! A couple different ways to get multiple ball, video modes, and extra ball. And the Adventure top tilt table is awesome. Overall always want to come back to try to complete all the missions.

Great pin. Recently played for the first time and loved it. Great theme integration. Great shots and immersive.

My biggest gripe about the game is the Game Mode doesn't always hold the ball, it pops out and also the bridge is not 100% left to player skill sometimes it's luck where it bounces.

This is a great game. I love how the shooter is the revolver. I love wide body machines because there is more going on in a game than a regular body. The multiball is outstanding and it’s a very fast game. When you get video mode, I feel like I’m in the game shooting the bad guys at the bar.

Fantastic game from a Williams. Wide body but plays fast. Fun code for its time. Lots of shots. Top 10 no doubt

It has a lot of thing to be a greater game but unfortunately it isn't. For me the playfield doesn't have goof flow, doesn't have good shoots and is very plane in rulset. I don't understand how this game could be compare to TZ or STTNG. It is in a very inferior league. I have one for some months and I have to sold it. Fortunatelly people are still paying a lot for this mediocre machine.

Perfect theme, beautiful artwork, and pretty fun. I always want to enjoy this one so much more than I do.. but its basically one shot over and over and over interlaced with the actual pretty fun gameplay once a mode is active. Having all the ramps and shots so low down on the playfield makes hard bricks to the posts extremely common and super frustrating (at least for me and my amateur shot accuracy). Still scores perfect in many aspects, but its unfortunate that without the theme, I think this game would be subpar.

It is side by side with the newer stern Indiana at my local pinball. My kids and I will always just play this one. It just oozes theme visually and with the audio. As a kid I felt like I was sucked into the movies while playing.

I am not a fan of the playfield layout though, but still would love to own this regardless.

This is a really great game. First off I am a huge Indiana Jones fan and I feel as if the game did a fairly great job of capturing the essence of the movie in the game. This is one that is on my list of games to obtain and keep in my collection. It is classy and has a timeless feel and look.

AN AMAZING GAME, Sallah adds alot of character to the game, MULTIPLE video modes, A great toy playfield, an intense ramp shot for jackpot/path of adventure, great shooting, great combo potential, and an AMAZING variety of modes.

The DCS sound really shines here with clips from the movie, and john williams score sounds wonderful on this, BETTER than the stern one (although the ark multiball on stern IS great fun).

The gun plunger was one of the things that drew me in as a child, I loved Indiana Jones, and this theme is masterfully merged into a wonderful game with great gameplay.

Multiple multiballs, tough as nails modes to master and a great design make one of the best machines EVER.

This is my favorite game of all time. The only real gripe I have with it is that it's constantly broken! Most machines I've played at public places have at least 1 issue. But a fully working version is hard to beat.

Theme is well integrated with game play. The Path to Adventure seems hard to keep working as intended, there have been issues with 2 of the 3 I have played here. Great callouts, music, and balanced game play. Overall an excellent pin.

A classic 90's game. Feels like most B/W machines, with a great theme perfect for when it was made and a dozen years later. Starting to get a bit ling in the tooth here in 2021.

Very hard game to completely set up. Like the concept of the upper playfield but ran into so many where it wasn't leveled or working properly which HIGHLY affects the outcome of a game. Love the theme. Had to let mine go as it was a maintenance nightmare.
