The lost city of Atlantis is under attack! Wave after wave of Gorgon vessels are approaching, each armed with weapons capable of destroying a part of the city. You are in charge of the command posts at the edges of the city and need to defend it from the invaders. The various gorgon craft will keep flying by on the screen in varying numbers and in different flight patterns. At first they fly high in the sky but then progressively lower. If an enemy makes it low enough before you destroy it, it will use it's weapons and destroy one of the buildings in Atlantis. As you progress in the game, the enemy craft will keep increasing in speed. The game ends when all remaining buildings in the city have been destroyed. Read less

Decent Atari Fixed Shoot Em Up, But Didn't Keep My Attention

Look: 8/10 As basic as it is, and lacking my usual favorite Atari 2600 colors, the enemy sprites are great. I love the rainbow color look. That boosted this up. Otherwise, just typical/functional look.

Sound: 5/10 Annoying. And with all the Atari potential... disappointing.

Look: 8/10 As basic as it is, and lacking my usual favorite Atari 2600 colors, the enemy sprites are great. I love the rainbow color look. That boosted this up. Otherwise, just typical/functional look.

Sound: 5/10 Annoying. And with all the Atari potential... disappointing.

Play: 6/10 I only played to this point, even tho I was still going strong. It was already getting old, with the enemies increasing in speed. enter image description here

It's decent controls, tho I wish you could shoot multiple bullets at once. Basically you just shoot from the 3 points and try to time accordingly. It's fun for a bit, but gets old... real quick heh. I respect it and all that, but fixed shooters like this and Missile Command just aren't my thing.

Feel: 6/10 The look is great, well really just the rainbow vibes especially with the enemy sprites. But otherwise, it just isn't "my thing" tho it's one of the better fixed shoot em ups.

Attachment: 6/10 Moving on. Not much to say.

Completion: 13k Score Playtime: 10mins
