• Bullwhip: Primary Tool / Melee
  Indy's iconic multi-tool. Used for traversal, puzzle-solving, and combat to disarm, distract, and strike enemies.
• Fists: Melee
  The primary form of combat. The game features a weighty and impactful first-person brawling system.
• Improvised Weapons: Melee
  Players are encouraged to use a wide variety of environmental objects as makeshift weapons, from shovels to violins.
• Firearms: Ranged
  Includes period-accurate pistols and other firearms. Gunplay is intentionally de-emphasized and treated as a last resort, with ammunition being a valuable resource.

Progression is narrative-driven rather than stats-based. The player's primary tool is Anne's smartphone, which gains 'numerous functions' to help navigate the environment and solve puzzles. The most critical 'skill' is the player's ability to make moral choices that determine the final outcome of the narrative.

The game does not feature a traditional XP-based leveling system. Progression is tied to discovering new tools, upgrading the iconic whip, and improving Indy's gear. There are separate, adjustable difficulty settings for combat and puzzles, allowing players to tailor the challenge to their preference.

The game features a semi-linear 'surreal labyrinth' comprised of Anne's distorted memories. Key areas include Anne's childhood rooms and other familiar locations twisted by her internal struggle. Exploration is dense and focuses on uncovering hidden secrets through environmental storytelling.

The game features a hybrid design, blending linear, cinematic sequences with large, open-area sandbox hubs. Key locations like the Vatican, the Gizeh plateau in Egypt, and the jungles of Sukhothai are expansive, explorable zones filled with optional side quests, collectibles, and environmental secrets.
