We review games from LucasArts and companies that were spawned by LucasArts. Occasionally these are written before the game is even released! Sometimes before the game is even announced!

A Vampyre Story The first installment in Autumn Moon's epic graphic adventure saga. |
17 Oct, 2011 |
Armed and Dangerous Planet Moon and LucasArts got together to make a highly fun and hilarious shooter. With a style reminiscent of LucasArts of yesteryear, Armed and Dangerous is an excellent game. |

Battle For Naboo Demo Review A full review of the demo to Battle For Naboo, the sequel to LucasArts/Factor 5's hit console game Rogue Squadron. |
09 Mar, 2001 |
Bone: Out From Boneville Bone: Out From Boneville is a strange enough game to warrent something more than a standard review. That is why we went with a crazy rant in stead. |
20 Sep, 2005 |
Bone: The Great Cow Race Bone: The Great Cow Race takes the Bone series the right direction. Which is great. |

Brutal Legend In 1983 Tim Schafer made a pact with the devil: in exchange for awesome game making skills, Lord Satan would require one game made in his honour. That game was Psychonauts. |

Costume Quest 2 Just in time for (the next) Halloween! |
31 Oct, 2015 |
CSI: 3 Dimensions of Murder Telltale released their CSI game, and Mojo readers didn't get too excited. It is, however, a genuinely good game, and one that comes recommended, even for people who haven't seen the TV series. You see more, please. |
02 Apr, 2007 |
CSI: Deadly Intent The latest C.S.I. based game from Telltale is based in Las Vegas. The city's slogan is "prepare to be lowered into the depths of Hell." |
22 Nov, 2009 |
CSI: Fatal Conspiracy Telltale's fourth game in the CSI franchise. |
30 Oct, 2010 |
CSI: Hard Evidence Telltale Games, A.K.A LucasArts 2.0, publish their latest game baby based on the illustrious Crime Scene Investigation TV series. Here's a fact for you: there's only been one murder associated with The International House of Mojo, and in Spaff's defense, the person was being a bit of a prick. |
12 Oct, 2007 |
Day of the Tentacle Remastered Zaarin plays it, publishes review on time. |

DeathSpank We review the first two parts of the DeathSpank saga. |
20 Aug, 2012 |
DeathSpank: The Baconing The third game in the DeathSpank franchise was made without Ron Gilbert. Sadly it also added a lot of combat and not much else. |
12 Jan, 2012 |
Double Fine Happy Action Theater Double Fine's Kinect title. |

Episode III: the game You’ve seen the movie, now play the game! In this 3D platform lightsaber-’em-up LucasArts, or at least, The Collective, aim to cash in on the film and entertain you at the same time. That’s the plan, anyway - did it work out, or is this just another excuse for Lucas to print money? Find out in our review! |
12 Jun, 2005 |

23 Apr, 2017 |
Game of Thrones HBO's popular fantasy series gets the Telltale treatment |
16 Jan, 2015 |
Ghost Pirates of Vooju Island Though the lazy might call it a Monkey Island alternative, Autumn Moon’s swashbuckling second game is as original as it is fun and easy on the eyes. Much like your face, some issues keep it from perfection, but only a bilge-sucking pack of pansified, lily-livered landlubbers would care. Arr! |
19 Mar, 2010 |
Ghoul Patrol Mojo continues to review old LucasArts games that it should have years ago as they get re-released on the Virtual Console. This time around the game is Ghoul Patrol, the completely unknown sequel to the relatively unknown Zombies Ate My Neighbors. Grab your crossbow and "random" potion and patrol our opinion within! |

Hector: Badge of Carnage - We Negotiate with Terrorists Be a bad cop in a worse city in this series from Straandlooper and Telltale Games. |
27 Apr, 2011 |
Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny Review The fifth and final Indiana Jones movie is rather good, and about as satisfying a curtain call for the series as one could have expected. No-one was more surprised to find himself delivering this news than our most cynical reviewer. |
30 Jun, 2023 |
Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis Reviewed The last official Indiana Jones adventure game ever gets an official Mixnmojo looking to. The question is, does this sort of thing still cut the mustard now that we're living on the moon with robot slaves in the wondrous 21st century? |
19 Aug, 2005 |
Indiana Jones and the Great Circle Review If you like Indy, this is probably your type of game. |
10 Dec, 2024 |
Indiana Jones and the Infernal Machine Review We take a look at LucasArt’s action adventure Indy-em-up back from the dying days of the last millennium. What was life like back in the 90s? Were boy bands ever really that popular? |
30 Jun, 2005 |
Indiana Jones and the Staff of Kings The oft-delayed much-hyped Indiana Jones game, released a year after the fourth film. Was it worth the wait? Do people still care? Find out inside! |
14 Jun, 2009 |
Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom 35th Anniversary Review Jason had occasion to see Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom on the big screen this summer. It’s also the movie’s 35th anniversary. Don’t tell us you require a third reason for an unsolicited review in these fallow times. |
26 Nov, 2019 |
Indiana Jones Reviewed A review of each of the Indiana Jones films, climaxing with a review of Kingdom of the Demonic Skull. The pressure, speaking personally, is quite intense. |
23 May, 2008 |
Indiana Jones' Greatest Adventures The first three Indiana Jones movies were made into one super-whizzy game. Retro fun awaits the intrepid adventurer who braves its side-scrolling gameplay of doom. |
04 Dec, 2009 |
Insecticide DS Review From the makers of Curse of Monkey Island comes a combination of action-platformer and adventure game in the form of Insecticide. |
05 Apr, 2008 |
Jedi Academy Reviewed For one of the first (and probably last) times ever, we got an actual Star Wars gamer to review a Star Wars game. Despite being blinded by years of fandom and merchandise lust, Boba Rhett was still able to find a couple things to grumble about. All in all, he likes the game, though. |
17 Nov, 2003 |
Jedi Outcast Review (PC) To say that this game was wildly anticipated is quite the understatement. Ever since Mojo had the pleasure of viewing this game first hand at E3 last May, we could tell this game was going to be fun. Now, almost a year later, Dark Forces III: Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast has hit the store shelves, but have the high expectations of the fans been met? Oh yes. |
05 Apr, 2002 |
Jedi Starfighter Review Not so long ago, Star Wars Starfighter made its debut on the PlayStation 2 as an impressive action game to showcase the power of a new console. Although the game had its shortcomings, it was generally considered quite a success. Now LucasArts has utilized this success to create a sequel, Jedi Starfighter. |

Lego Star Wars We take a look at the latest in game concepts - take Lego, the Danish brick with a thousand uses, and Star Wars, the well loved if oft-abused franchise, add in some platform adventure gameplay and a whole load of fun and bake in the oven for forty minutes. What’s the result of all this? A nice big cake. A nice big cake of Lego Star Wars. Read on to find out more... |

Lego Star Wars: Complete Saga A look at the bundled release of Lego Star Wars 1 (the prequels) and Lego Star Wars 2 (the original trilogy), as played on the Wii. Is Darth Vader still scary in lego form? Are lightsabers really that awesome on the Wii controller? Why are we all so old, all of a sudden? Where did my childhood go? |

Monkey Island 1 Classic Review (PC) Lemon Head does what no Mojo reviewer has done before (that we remember) and tackles The Secret of Monkey Island. ... Yes, of course it's good! |
01 Jan, 2001 |
Monkey Island 2 Classic Review (PC) Released in 1992, Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revengs is quite likely the most important game of all time. That may be a lie, but it's definitely fun. If you've never played it (don't lie, now!), or if you just like reading these things for the sake of nostalgia, this review is for you. |

Psychonauts Psychonauts is, for those of you who have Googled their way in here for the first time, the latest game from Double Fine, Tim Schafer's post-Grim Fandango company. It's an action/adventure that combines elements from classic graphic adventures with platform games, while also throwing a bunch of other genres in to the mix for good measure. |
29 Apr, 2005 |
Psychonauts (PS4/PS2) Oi… Play the other platforms. |

Review: Star Wars Bounty Hunter (GC) Andrew "telarium" Langley reviews the Gamecube third-person action game, Star Wars Bounty Hunter. Is this game just another souless effort to cash in on the popularity of Episode II, or is it actually a quality product? telarium shares his opinions within. |

Sam & Max Save the World After Sam & Max 2 was cancelled by LucasArts, a number of renegade game mechanics broke free and formed Screw You, Assholes -- later renamed Telltale Games. A short while later, they released their own Sam & Max game. |

Sam & Max Save the World Xbox Review A review of Sam & Max's Xbox debut. |
22 Jun, 2009 |
Sam & Max: Season One Soundtrack Review The first soundtrack was invented in Ancient Greece by the great thinker Archimedes, but he merely used it at symposiums to carry wine. It took the might of the Roman Empire to put the soundtrack to its true use: to play music. "Ade vencini decorium elevenus" were the famous words of Emperor Latius. A rough translation reads: "turn it up to 11, dammit." |

Star Wars Reviewed What happens when you drink 17 cups of tea in one go? Most people go on a killing spree and end up getting strangled by a paedophile, but Gabez wrote six Star Wars reviews instead. Six Star Wars reviews for Six Star Wars films. In retrospect and reference to the prequels. You do the math. |
05 Jul, 2005 |
Star Wars: Clone Wars (Film) It's hard to get excited about this, a spin-off movie that nobody asked for or wanted. It has been accused of being a superfluous trailer for the animated TV series, which is probably more than 50% correct. Perhaps, though, somebody might favour this underdog. Is there room in our hearts for one more movie? |
17 Aug, 2008 |
Star Wars: Obi-Wan Star Wars: Obi Wan gets beat up in this review by RemiO. Though the controls are alright, the rest of the game makes you weep. After much scandal, cancelling, and console-mucking, Star Wars: Obi-Wan finally arrived. |
22 Apr, 2020 |
Star Wars: The Force Unleashed The much hyped "return to diamond form" for Star Wars games, turns out to be "mostly fine." It's neither a slap in the rogers, nor a sexy weekend in France. It's somewhere in the middle. |
01 Sep, 2008 |
Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People After Sam & Max Season Two, the fiery eye of Telltale turned its gaze to the Homestar Runner universe of popular web cartoons, focusing on the character of Strong Bad. Whilst getting unreservedly positive reviews from across the board, some LucasArts type fans responded to this series without much enthusiasm. In true Mix’n’mojo fashion, we leap in several years too late and become very opinionated and unreliable. Score! |

Tales of Monkey Island No one would have believed in the last years of the decade that this web-site was being watched keenly and closely by intelligences greater than our's and yet as mortal as our own; that as we busied ourselves with our LucasArts-angst we were being scrutinised and studied, perhaps almost as narrowly as a man with a microscope might scrutinise the transient creatures that swarm and multiply in a drop of water. |

Telltale Hold'em Dealt Review Telltale Texas Hold'em is exactly what it sounds like. It's a card game -- Texas Hold'em -- from recently established adventure house Telltale Games. But "WTF?" you type angrily. You're right, it's not an adventure game. It's a character driven, single-player PC poker game, built with the Telltale engine. Telltale Texas Hold'em stars four computer-controlled opponents, each one with different playing styles and personality traits. |
