In Indiana Jones' Greatest Adventures, the player takes Jones through the original three Indiana Jones films. The story goes through the films in the order they were released, with The Raiders of the Lost Ark coming first, The Temple of Doom following and The Last Crusade falling after the previous two.

As Indiana Jones, players jump from area to area, fighting or avoiding enemies along the way. Players may opt to combat foes using Jones' whip, however, like other games, evading enemies conserves health in the long run. Players are constantly assaulted by varying foes, depending on which adventure they are reenacting. For example, while playing through The Raiders of the Lost Ark levels, players fight Walter Donovan, whereas in The Temple of Doom, players will fight the cannibals of Pankot. There are a total of 28 levels and the game is single-player only.
