Inca (1992)
Inca is a 1992 adventure video game made by Coktel Vision and Sierra On-Line.
A 1992 action-adventure that drops you into a collision of Inca history, ancient prophecy, and pulpy science fiction, where the past and the cosmos are treated as one continuous mystery. The gameplay mixes dogfight sequences with on-foot exploration, and the setting draws on pre-Columbian mythology to frame a story about a warrior defending his people against forces that are partly earthly and partly something stranger. Rough around the edges, but genuinely unusual in its blend of ancient-world atmosphere and space-opera ambition.

A few thoughts on Inca
Tomb Raider: The Legend of Lara Croft shares the appetite for ancient civilizations used as adventure playgrounds, with the same mix of mythology and action. For movies in the same register, 10,000 BC channels prehistoric spectacle with a similar earnestness about lost worlds.
