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.

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.

The game features a variety of 2D stages based on iconic locations from the comics and show. A key feature is the 'Arena Shift' mechanic, where a special attack can be used once per match to knock an opponent from one stage to another, such as from Chicago to the surface of the Moon, creating a dynamic and chaotic change of scenery.
