( TSR had actually held the license for Indiana Jones in 1984, but their product The Adventures of Indiana Jones Role-Playing Game was not a big hit and TSR allowed the license to expire in 1994.) When WEG gained the license, they immediately published The World of Indiana Jones in 1994. Publication history Īfter WEG developed a standard role-playing game system in 1994 called Masterbook, they used it for licensed role-playing games based on Necroscope, Species, Tales from the Crypt, Tank Girl, World of Aden, and Indiana Jones. A pair of cardstock gamemaster's screens come with the book. The book includes a complete adventure, "Indiana Jones and the Masamune Blade": The player characters must trace the whereabouts of an archaeology professor, who has gone missing during an expedition to Japan to search for a rare artifact.
New role-playing material includes several new player character types such as local guide, spy, and street kid. There is also a chapter titled "Unearthly Nippon" that outlines various Japanese supernatural phenomena and creatures. Content includes an overview of Japan at that time, the military, society and culture, martial arts, and equipment that would be found in Japan at that time. Indiana Jones and the Rising Sun provides information about using Japan in the 1930s as a setting.
