What kind of game play does it have?

The trailer(demo) makes it look like a point and click adventure or worse. I love the look of this thing but if it has the game play of a DVD I can't buy it.

Hi,
Atlantis Redux is an adventure game.
If you know "Dreamcatcher" or "The Adventure Company" games like "Egypt" or "Atlantis" it is the same kind of game, a Myst-like.
Check www.tacgames.com to learn more about The Adventure Company games and what they look like.
Or watch this trailer showing the game running:

It was looking at the video that was the try option on clickgamer that confused me. As there was no signs of a game. Thanks for the links I'll go look.

I had seen the other vid before. At least it had someone playing or rather swapping things over. Anyway the sheer scale of work is obvious.

Hi,
I got this error when I tried to email you the video:



Anyway here is a link to the video:

Hi Johan,
You're right, I just realised it after posting....


Vincent.

The game's quality is really good, amazing graphics! The quicktime vr-like camera turning is not that bad once you start playing .

Also, for anybody who bought the game too, create a SAVE folder in the ATLANTIS folder if it's not already there. It might be fixed by now but when I got it they seem to just forgot about that part .

Some ingame screenshots for your eyes only :

Main Menu:


Ingame shot #1 (where you can rotate the camera):


Ingame shot #2 (fixed camera, closeup of object):


Movie shot #1 (when moving from one to another area):


Ingame shot #3 (person talking to me):


Ingame shot #4 (puzzle!):


The puzzle (as seen in the last image) has some sort of bug in it the 2nd time I tried to play it (the first time my savegames didn't work yet ), but it worked the first time .

The game runs wonderfull on my A620BT running of a 256mb CF card, although the sound in the movies sometimes just thinks he has to play faster then the movie itself .

Hi,
The bug Miracle reported (last picture in his post) has been corrected in the last version available from clickgamer.
Those who had already bought it will receive shortly by email a new .exe file to fix it.
Those who had the "save" problem will receive an email very soon explaining how to fix it. Miracle just explained it.

I bought the game, and if you like immersive adventure games, then it really deserves your attention.

Some things I'd like to see (perhaps in future updates) :
- a possibility to skip dialogues and cutscenes I've already watched once
- an in-game option menu to adjust sound volume and screen brightness
