Pretty interesting deep-dive from Zach Barth (of Zachtronics) into how this mostly-forgotten randomised adventure from 1997 works under the hood.

I enjoyed that game and the Indiana Jones one too.

Yeah, they’re practically the same game and - frankly - they’re not very good in retrospect, but there’s something very appealing to me about ‘desktop games’ as a format.
