Some ups, some downs. Much nostalgia.
Okay guys, nostalgic glasses off. For the new comers to this game: be aware since it's just slightly below average. For all the others like me growing up with that game it's five stars hands down. But those guys don't need a review. This very game has been one of my first first person adventures ever along with Zork: Nemesis and Journeyman Project 3. Let's point out the good stuff: The graphics won't win any record now but the art design is still beautiful if you overlook all those big pixels and stiff animations. But that's just how it was back then! The music is magnificent! There are some tracks that totally hook you in and even the timing from some beats are well placed. The story is fast paced, nothing ground breaking but still not the average story since a simple kidnapping is just the beginning and is folding up for a much nastier twist. But there *are* some minor plot holes. Such as places you find yourself like "where does that came from?" or "okay, how did they work out this?". Sometimes it's just headscratching. But minor, though. The negative stuff: Some poor written dialoges. Example? After landing in polar region, some talk is going. "... It's not like that, as a pilot I have a map in my head that learning requires 4 years." "It's pretty cold." "Then let's go. What do we look for, after all?" "I have no clue. Did you see the skies?" "Wonderfull. I think over there is a village." WTF?! Could they please stay at one topic for more than one sentence? There are many examples like this. Sometimes it's simply hilarious. But the worst thing about Atlantis: TRIAL AND FUCKING ERROR. You will die. You think Dark Souls is hard? Play Atlantis. There are often so many options with only one solution that you'll find yourself more than once dead on the floor or being imprisioned. Seriously. The narrator give some hints, though, after getting killed. The puzzles for themselves are pretty easy apart from two tough ones. Grab this game at sale and be aware of!
