About the game
Game Overview In Atlantida you control a faction of the people of Atlantis that, after a series of catastrophes that turn their once glorious civilization to a semi-barbaric state, must move to the safety of the continent to avoid perish in the island inevitable collapse. There are 13 turns, in which you must explore the island to gather resources, develop your city and discover technologies and advances in order to be able to send your population to safety. The winner is the first to save all her people or the most efficient to save them in the moment the island collapses. Game Development Even though the Atlantida already works as intended and the general idea is defined, it is still subject to changes. The game was developed directly for the yucata.de website, aiming to benefit from multiple plays which can provide a fair amount of players' feedback and suggestions. It is possible to play it "live", though, using the print and play files and rules at the Files section. Online Play Yucata (turn-based)
