Fun & addictive game.

Enough said.

I lost my registration code a while back with computer problems. All that is solved, except NO response from these guys.

You want service? Don't bother e-mailing them. I wasted $25 CDN on this game.

Buy a decent game with service from Pop Cap Games!

Don't waste your money on this!

The good: Very fun and addictive, gorgeous graphics, cool sound effects, easy to "pick up and go".

The bad: The music is....I really don't even remember it. Not bad, but definitely not catchy. But my big problem with the game is that it's TOO EASY. I feel like I could play it all day without ever losing a life. After half an hour or so, I just got sick of it; I wanted a Game Over. But it just wasn't gonna happen. So I quit.

I'm not sure I'll ever play the game again, just because....well, call me crazy, but I want a game I can lose. It's a fun game, don't get me wrong, but without extra challenge, it just gets old.

Cool game, but please make the arrow cursor disappear when playing the game!

I played Atlantis one time and didn't like it at all, then after being quite bored I gave it another shot. I was VERY enthusiastic about the game and immediately played my 60 minutes worth. I am curious about luxor after reading these comments and am now downloading it. GREAT GAME!

Same with me as Donna. I think you have to re-evaluate your minimum requirements. I have an old iMac G3 400 - the graphics are pooched. The title screen & sounds nice though. The gaming graphics & menu look corrupt.

Tried also on my ghost account with no extra additions, but it quit upon starting up.

Luxor is addictive and Atlantis is not.
The realtime motion and responsiveness
of Luxor makes it a much better game and
not really an imitation just a variation of
many games that came before it. Although
in my estimation Luxor outdoes all that came
before it.

Why? Not only the realism of motion and
the responsiveness (which is essential in this type of game) but also the increase of difficulty is based
on strategies learned in lower levels. This type of complexity that keeps one addicted is missing in Atlantis. Also the color scheme in Atlantis is very frustrating. Gamers expect difficulties to be discernible not frustrating. The yellow and orange need to be delineated a bit more. And the motion is very disappointing. All in all I would have to say that if you liked Atlantis....you'll LOVE Luxor.
The only person I know who has played Atlantis BEFORE learning about Luxor is my girlfriend's brother. He watched me play from a distance on
my Powerbook and said "Oh I have that game".
Ten minutes later I had to pry his sweaty paws off my Powerbook. He is an addict now to Luxor and
takes great satisfaction in the fact that he's risen
far ahead of me in the game. Play both demos and decide for yourself.

This game is great! Feels like an arcade game! Hard to see the scores though (a bit blurry)

About the luxor comment, luxor is already a remake of another game (Shuffle from MB in 1977)

Sorry, doesn't change the fact that this game is VERY much like Luxor, coming out within months of the latter's release, and even using the theme of an ancient civilization (Egypt vs. Atlantis). While it might not be a ripoff in the sense that the Atlantis guys took Luxor's code and slapped different graphics on it, it's still blatantly obvious.
