A continuation of Imagic's Atlantis for the Atari 2600: a fixed-position shooter where you have to protect the sunken city's three towers by firing on increasingly aggressive waves of invading ships. It keeps the original's structure but ramps up the difficulty and pace, rewarding reflexes over strategy. It's a good representative of that school of territorial-defense shooters that dominated much of the console's early catalog.
