Rediscover the Lost City of Atlantis

Montreuil (France), August 2, 2012. French publisher Anuman Interactive is continuing to update installments of the legendary “Atlantis” adventure games license and announces the release of two new titles, "Atlantis 2 HD" and "Atlantis Evolution" (coming soon) as part of its Microids collection for PC, Mac and iOS.

Last January, Anuman Interactive announced the release of a reworked and tactile-friendly version of the third installment of the "Atlantis” series, “Atlantis The New World”. Now two new installments of this adventure game series, “Atlantis 2 HD” and “Atlantis Evolution”, have been given a new lease of life on PC, Mac, iPhone and iPad.

In these two new titles, players will embark on adventures that will bring them face to face with the people of Atlantis, in high-color landscapes from the lost city of Atlantis.

In “Atlantis 2 HD”, players step into the shoes of young Tibetan Ten (a descendant of the hero of the first Atlantis installment). His adventure will take him to Tibet, Ireland and even China so that he may complete his assignment - to get to Shambala and defeat the Bearer of Dark, evil incarnate. In “Atlantis Evolution” (the fourth episode of the saga), players portray Curtis Hewitt, an explorer from the start of the 20th century swept up by a whirlwind during a devastating storm at sea, and propelled into this mysterious world where technology is everywhere he looks. Here, he will find the people of New Atlantis, who are enslaved by bloodthirsty Gods, and he will have to save them from this terrible oppression.

As in the other titles in the Microids collection, “Atlantis Evolution” is a first-person adventure game where players enjoy a 360° view of the 3D environments. They must explore these environments in order to collect objects that will prove useful during the adventure and which will be automatically stored in an interactive inventory. Adventurers also have access to a quick inventory where they can equip these objects before using them, in interaction with the surrounding environments and the characters they meet during their trek. For example, when Hewitt Curtis is almost devoured by a massive carnivorous plant, he can use a branch to block the plant's jaw and thus get out alive. Players must solve enigmas as they progress through the game to unblock various game situations. For example, in “Atlantis 2 HD,” when he finds himself in Ireland, Ten must reconstruct a symbol concealed on a chapel wall in order to get a wand that will be essential for the next part of his quest.

As soon as players leave the game, an automatic save system allows them to pick the game up later at the exact place where they left off. Also among the features is the Compass Look function, which players can activate on iPhone and iPad thanks to the gyroscope, and which will allow them to explore the environments around them by pointing and angling their devices.

“Atlantis 2 HD” is available from July 31, 2012, in EFIGS (English, French, Italian, German and Spanish) in the Games category on AppStore and on all major download platforms. “Atlantis Evolution” is soon to be released.
