A role-playing game based on the Indiana Jones movies was produced by West End Games (WEG) in 1994, called The World of Indiana Jones. It was designed by Brian Sean Perry and was offered in a boxed set, and several adventure modules were written for it. Two sets of pewter miniatures were marketed for use with the game.

The setting of the game is historical, 1930s pulp era. Players can choose to set aspects of the game at any point in the mid-to-late 1930s. Some adventure packs establish a particular timeline, while others are left to the player's discretion.

WEG published The World of Indiana Jones game using its Masterbook system. The supplement Indiana Jones Adventures (1996) included conversion rules for using the D6 System instead.

Characters edit

The game gave players the option of creating their own characters for The World of Indiana Jones setting.
