The game environment where the “action” takes place is made up of a series of pre-rendered 360º scenes. Although some are slightly pixelized, the vast majority of locations are most impressive and make for a really involving and inspiring atmosphere. So, each location is basically a 360º environment with a maximum of four possible directions (north / south / east / west) depending on the location, although most locations only have north/south. Your journey will take you from the hot desert sand to beautiful Egyptian tombs, impressive temples, pyramids, dark caves, outlandish mountain sites, among many others that I will refrain from mentioning in order not to spoil the surprise. One thing I can assure you, they’re all beautiful, each in its own way."</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/images/web/2003/pc_capture1.jpg" /><br /><br />If you want to know more about this impressive piece of eye candy, make sure you check the PDACorps review out. It's pretty comprehensive and has a goodly number of screenshots to admire. So, any of you guys played it yet?

I have played it. It's great for all of you Myst fans. I haven't gotten very far, but it's beautiful. Acting is a bit cheesy thought :P.

Yep, I played it and finished it. Great game. Nice puzzles.
Not as difficult as Gilbert Goodmate or Fade but good fun.
Some scenes were a bit dark on my MDA II but further on no troubles. :lol:
It could be a bit longer though. The ending is very open :cry: but I won't tell you anymore :mrgreen:

Is this the chest puzzle? With all the drawers?
Well I had to say that I had to cheat on that one :wink: so I did a google search on Atlantis and hints and then I found a page with all the answers... :lol:

Hi Flooder,
You had 3 times a hint about the doors. I can't remember by head but if you follow all the three hints then you get to the next level.
Otherwise do the Google search.
Good luck :lol:

Guys, just a small request for those of us considering buying the game, please either start a new thread with these spoiler tips or keep the spoiler tips contained within private messages. 8)

It's a bit difficult to read through this thread looking for opinions on the game without mistakenly absorbing some of these spoilers. Thanks. :wink:
