## What is Flight of the Amazon Queen?

"A great game, that'll give you hours of fun and leave you feeling good. We love it!"
-Mr. Bill's Adventureland

"Walks on the fine line between Monkey Island and Indiana Jones without falling."
"A well-executed adventure."
- Leading MobyGames reviewers

The year is 1949 and you assume the role of Joe King, a pilot for hire who is given the job of flying Faye Russell (a famous movie star) into the Amazon jungle for a photo shoot.
Of course, things never go according to plans. After an unfortunate turn of events they find themselves stranded in the heart of the Amazon jungle, where Joe will embark on a quest to rescue a kidnapped princess and in the process, encounter a dangerous temple, fearsome Amazonian warriors, and a powerful mad scientist intent on taking over the world!
It's up to you to deal with the imminent threat of world domination … but be careful, or this may be the last Flight of the Amazon Queen!

### 4/5 — Best game ever made

*2026-01-15*

Best game ever just one small glitch

### 5/5 — The GOAT

*2025-06-10*

I’ve played it over a 100 times and is the best game and I recommend to buy it before playing Broken sword or Syberia.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2024-09-09*

Good story line. Clever challenges.  And makes you feel part of the adventure

### 1/5 — Bloqué

*2023-12-02*

Impossible de continuer le jeu car impossible de faire partir le gorille malgré avoir recherché sur les soluces, les phrases pour le faire disparaître n’existe pas

### 5/5 — Was wollt ihr

*2023-08-09*

Ihr meckert über die damalige Synchro und merkt nicht mal das Christoph Walz die Hälfte gesprochen hat, das is kein Spiel das ist eine Legende 🤓

### 3/5 — Moyen

*2023-03-05*

Les énigmes sont moyennes, trop besoin de faire des aller retour dans des mondes bien trop grand.
Ma référence est day of the tentacle qui est sublime.
Amazon Queen est moyen.

### 5/5 — Top Notch Retro Adventure Game

*2021-08-22*

This game was a welcome surprise. I bought this in a bundle to get the Simon the Sorcerer games and I’m glad I did.  I would rate this up with the lucasarts or wadjet eye games in terms of quality. It’s more story driven and less puzzle focused which I prefer.  I would put this in my top 10 adventure games available on the App Store. Only (nitpicky) issue was with the inventory. Used items aren’t discarded but only 4 are shown at a time so by the end it’s a ton of scrolling through useless icons to get what you need. But not that big of a deal.

### 4/5 — The best out of the series

*2020-07-03*

Found this game more enjoyable than the Simon sorcerer series. This had a more subtle dialogue that didn’t waffle on as much - could of used a map to move between locations which would of made it less tedious, and a 5 star game.

### 5/5 — Grandios

*2020-05-29*

Bitte mehr von solchen alten Spielen!! Danke

### 5/5 — Classic

*2019-11-13*

Up there with Monkey Island, Indiana Jones Fate Of Atlantis and Beneath A Steel Sky and I remember playing all of these on my Amiga. Not sure about the new graphics to be honest and the voice acting isn’t great (never had it on my Amiga) but play it in the original form with just the music and I’m back in 1995 and happy.....
And with Disney (Arseholes) now removing Monkey Island (Thanks Lucas) off the App Store, there is absolutely no hope of Fate Of Atlantis so Amazon Queen and Steel Sky are just as good now as back then.
