Adventure classics like Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis, LOOM, and The Dig live again as LucasArts has re-released some of its most popular PC classics via the Steam digital distribution service (steampowered.com).

The company plans to release more games in the future, while the initial 10 offer a good mix of timeless old schooler, lost sleepers, or a few modestly good but formerly-overpriced titles.

These 10 include (all prices USD) Armed and Dangerous ($9.99); Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis ($4.99); Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (Graphic Adventure) ($4.99); LEGO Indiana Jones: The Original Adventure ($19.99); LOOM ($4.99); Star Wars Battlefront II ($19.99); Star Wars Republic Commando ($9.99); Star Wars Starfighter ($4.99); The Dig ($4.99); and Thrillville: Off the Rails ($19.99).

Future Steam-Lucas announcements can be expected via twitter.com/lucasartsgames.
