"One of the few that didn't budge on its original release date, however, is an expansion for one of 2024's best video games. Indiana Jones and the Great Circle was a gem when it released last December, and I couldn't be excited to have more of it to play through. I'm happy to confirm what I've played so far of its Order Of Giants expansion perfectly scratches the tomb-raiding, crypt-exploring fix I was looking for and then some."
"Order of Giants slots right into the existing campaign of The Great Circle. Players access it by returning to Vatican City and speaking to a conflicted priest who sets you off on an adventure into hidden tunnels beneath Rome. As the name implies, this standalone fieldwork quest delves more into one of its biggest mysteries around the Great Circle: the massive beings guarding the tablets needed to activate Noah's Ark."
"All of the staples of the main game are here right from the start. Lengthy but compelling documents, nail-biting social stealth, and even some death-defying platforming kick off this winding descent into this enigma. There's even another fantastic logic puzzle in the first 10 minutes that tests both your knowledge of popular biblical scripture and your environment. As is the case with the main game, The Order of Giants continues to reward players who pay attention."
Order of Giants integrates directly into Indiana Jones and the Great Circle's campaign via Vatican City, sending players into hidden tunnels beneath Rome. The expansion investigates massive guardian beings linked to tablets that can activate Noah's Ark. Core features include lengthy documents, social stealth, death-defying platforming, and logic puzzles that reward attention to environment and biblical knowledge. Early content contains a challenging logic puzzle within the first ten minutes. The Serpent Room puzzle presents one of the expansion's toughest and most satisfying challenges. A prolonged ascent requires careful use of openings in dark, dank environments and emphasizes exploration skills.
