Indiana Jones and His Desktop Adventures Alien Abduction: ---------------- As mentioned in the Trivia section, one of the main quests possible in Indy DA is to retrieve a strange idol which frightens the local townsfolk. When Indy enters a hidden temple and finds the idol in question, it turns out to be C-3PO's head. There's an Easter Egg that can be achieved on this quest to give you a different (and even weirder) ending, though. There are three screens of scrubby desert that Indy must walk through before reaching the temple with the "idol." To activate the Egg, you just have to wait around in these screens for a while (for example, by taking the time to kill every single animal in them) instead of immediately rushing for the temple. When you finally press on, instead of locating the temple with Threepio's head, you will find a boat, which you can use to cross a lake. Next, there is a Y-shaped rut in the ground, along with three stone blocks. Move the blocks to the endpoints of the Y-shaped marking. At this point Indy will be kidnapped by an alien, who mentions in passing that Indy obviously has too much time on his hands. The quest ends with the spaceship leaving Earth. Easter Egg: ----------- Incidentally, this Easter Egg is referenced by another Easter Egg in LucasArts' other desktop adventure game, Yoda Stories. During the "Cloning Machine" quest, Luke Skywalker has the opportunity to find the same alien spaceship, along with Indy himself, who thinks Luke is "some kind of test pilot."
