Requiring a second mouse, they offer two-player excitement on a single computer. In addition to Quest Mode, it offers a pair of two-player alternatives, Team Quest and Competition. Its art deco visuals, industrial design, cool particle and steam effects, cinematic retro-evocative soundtrack and addictive game play combine to create an enjoyable experience. Other power ups exist, but you get the idea.Ītlantis – Sky Patrol is a pretty slick release. The Power Ball shoots a single multicolored ball eliminating whatever orb it hits, Rainbow Hammer fires several multicolored balls, Rewind makes chains move backward, Color Scanner destroys all orbs of a single color, Soul of Atlantis annihilates all orbs in a single vertical column and Orichalchum Bomb takes out everything in a fixed radius. Power ups are used immediately when caught.

Special 'shooting gallery' stages appear every so often, too, allowing you to collect extra coins. Accuracy extends an aim-improving beam, Speed boosts shot velocity, Bonus Magnet augments bonus attraction power, Rewinder increases rewind of the payoff ball (multiplying coins dispensed) and Disruptor increasingly delays the release of new chains. When a doomsday device is destroyed, it releases machine parts, coins actually, that you trade for ship upgrades. Oh, by the way, expect moving parts and tilting tracks to thwart your progress on some levels.īonuses take two forms in Atlantis – Sky Patrol: machine parts and power ups. Chains, on the other hand, are destroyed by combining three or more orbs of the same color until all matches are cleared. Protective doors that open and close are added eventually, making a hit more difficult. Initially, one is enough, but soon two are required. Static orbs require hits from balls of the same color. While the focus should be on fixed orbs, eliminating those stops chain production, play consists of a balancing act between the two. Targets are stationary orbs and moving chains. Clicking the left button fires a colored orb while clicking the right swaps it with the next in sequence. Game control is entirely mouse-driven with your 'ship' moved horizontally across the bottom of the screen via the mouse. At that point, destroy any remaining orbs in motion and the doomsday device is history. Once you do, the generators cease operation. To succeed, it’s critical to destroy the static orbs. If they reach it, you fail and the game ends (though, progress is saved). At set intervals, these chains are spit out by generators and make their way along tracks to an exit point. Your goal? Disable a series of 111 devastating devices, a task that’s not as easy as it sounds in this frenetic marble-matcher.Įach device, or level, is comprised of stationary control parts – sphere generators, meandering tracks and static orbs – and moving defense mechanisms – chains of colored balls. Yet another Zuma-inspired game, sufficient alterations and additions make Atlantis – Sky Patrol uniquely derivative and not a simple copycat. Beginning in Canada and moving downward through the United Sates, Mexico and South America, it’s not long before the trail of catastrophic contraptions leads you across the Atlantic to Africa, Europe and all points east until you’ve circled the globe to eliminate every last one. Over 100 doomsday devices were discovered and the responsibility for neutralizing these Atlantis-born mechanisms falls on you. But, that’s as far as the similarities go.Ī member of Sky Patrol, you’ve been called in to deal with a deadly threat. In like fashion, Atlantis – Sky Patrol offers an alternate-history, sci-fi storyline that could easily serve as the plot for a sequel to Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow.

Wells, both employed fantastic Victorian-era tech that simply wasn’t possible at the time (or even today).
