Grab your whip, put on your hat, and get ready for an epic adventure with “Indiana Jones and the Great Circle,” now available in early access on Xbox Series X|S consoles and through Game Pass. While the greatest quests are often spontaneous, a helping hand never hurts, right? That’s why we, at Wire, have rounded up some essential, spoiler-free tips and tricks to kick start your journey.
## Sights, Camera, Action
Venturing into the mysteries of Indiana Jones and the Great Circle requires the right documentation tools. Here, taking photos is crucial. Once you set foot in the Vatican, you’ll find you can buy a camera. This handy gadget is not just about snapping cool shots; it helps you move the story forward and fill your experience meter, unlocking exciting new perks and skills along the way.
### Virtual Tourism
Every time you’re in a historical hotspot, you’ll see a camera icon pop up on your screen. That’s your cue to pause and look for any notable landmarks or artifacts. Capturing these in your photos boosts your Adventure Points, which you can then trade, along with knowledge books you’ll stumble upon or buy, to level up your skills—from melee prowess to stamina boosts. These enhancements are game-changers, helping you maximize the array of melee options available.
### Helping The Locals
As you wander through bustling streets, keep your ears open for NPCs chatting about landmarks or people they wish to remember. Take note of these details! Capture the mentioned images and hand them over to the characters who requested them. Doing so will help you stack up those Adventure Points.
## Never Be Empty-Handed
Indy is quite resourceful and can turn almost anything into a weapon, from shovels to flyswatters. But sometimes, he seems empty-handed. Not to worry! While his revolver lacks a silencer, it can be used silently. Just press X with the gun drawn, and Indy will use it like a club. But be cautious—only a few hits are possible before the weapon bends out of shape. Thankfully, Repair Kits found all over can get things back in working order.
## It’s Ok To Walk Away (for now)
The levels in Indiana Jones and the Great Circle are packed with secrets, puzzles, and treasures. Exploring these elements is pure joy and rewarding. However, sometimes you hit a wall—literally or figuratively—with locked doors or puzzles. The unexpected advice here is to keep moving. As the story progresses, you’ll find new paths opening up and enemies becoming less threatening, especially as Indy dons disguises. Characters will prompt you to tie up loose ends, but until then, it’s okay to forge ahead.
## Brawn Over Brains
Using your mind is crucial but sometimes brute force is needed. Those padlocked wooden boxes scattered around? Don’t waste time searching for keys—a hammer will do the trick if the reticle turns red! Similarly, sledgehammers double as great weapons and can knock down certain walls. Be on the lookout for fragile structures.
We hope these tips make your adventure in Indiana Jones and the Great Circle smoother and more exciting. Dive into early access today and start your exploration!
