Earth Atlantis Reviews
Professional reviews from gaming critics
Earth Atlantis mixes exploration and scrolling shooter elements to create a challenging, if occasionally frustrating experience. The map-inspired visuals are the most unique and eye-catching aspect of this game, but under the hood it's a good distraction that works best in portable mode when you have some time to kill.
Earth Atlantis does a lot of things right. The weight of controls are great and the play-by-play experience is good fun. While I wish they had evened out the bosses somewhat, they are still thrilling encounters that prove enjoyable. A couple of the bosses certainly need to be patched and this is why I can't recommend playing through Hunter Mode right now. With all due respect, dealing with a couple of those bosses is just a little too much. If you’re prepared for a few difficulty spikes and still want to go on a grand adventure, Earth Atlantis will provide a fun experience.
Publisher Headup Games have discovered yet another potentially amazing game that might be worth your attention. Developed by the relatively new developer, Pixel Perfex, Earth Atlantis is fun, side-scrolling shooter available on the Nintendo Switch. With an eye-catching art style, fast gameplay, and a unique nautical theme, Earth Atlantis could be a real treat for gamers looking for something a little different.
Earth Atlantis is a retro shooter with an “old sketching” visual style.
Earth Atlantis takes the world its built and makes us appreciate it for every detail. Despite some gameplay issues, this title does the best it can to provide players with a memorable experience.
Shmups generally test your understanding of the game and its various mechanics, but not Pixel Perfex's Earth Atlantis. Read our Earth Atlantis review.
