Quick Links
The combat isn’t the easiest part ofIndiana Jones and the Great Circle. At multiple points throughout the story, you need to fight massive bosses that are much harder to knock down than the Nazis you’ll find in the open areas of the game.
During the story, you’ll need to fight the Guardian Giant in Gizeh, and it’s one of the toughest fights in the game. Rather than just swinging wildly at the big guy, you need to be a bit more considered about how you attack. There are also some things you should do before you even begin approaching him.
How To Light The Room
The main gimmick of the fight is the lack of light in the arena.You need to creep around quietly to try and avoid the GuardianGiant’s attacks. The first thing you need to do islocate the pillar in the centre of the room, which you interacted with previously, and get your bearings.
Around the arena, there are three pressure plates - one on each side of the room and one up some stairs opposite the pillar. Try and crouch walk over to them tolight them by standing on them. That’ll then make the fight a lot easier than it would otherwise be.
How To Beat Guardian Giant
Now, with the room lit, you’ll be able to fight the giant properly. Either let him approach you or go after him, being sure to stay in the bright areas as much as you can.
You need tofocus on parrying with LB, countering his attacks whenever you can. Also,pick up the metal poles on the ground aroundyou and use those for extra damage against the big guy.
Like in any fight in Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, do not punch more than twice in succession, as you’ll be hit in return. Attack a maximum of two times before backing off and waiting for another opportunity.
Once you’ve beaten the Guardian Giant, you canpick up the medallion from his body and put it into the pillarto progress to the next part of the story.
