Behind the scenes[]
Indiana Jones in the Lost Kingdom does not specify when it is set but the presence of Ivar Reiss, who dies in The Further Adventures of Indiana Jones comic "Good as Gold"—his first appearance—would suggest that the game takes place during or prior to 1936. The context of the Marvel comic story, however, implies that Reiss and Indiana Jones are meeting for the first time which runs counter to the game's assertion that the former is the archaeologist's "archrival".
Some online sites have Ivar Reiss named as Erik Peter(s) in Lost Kingdom instead. With the title long since off-market, it's unclear whether or not this difference is from a different edition of the game or through an unofficial modification.
