About the game

What you do in a play session

You know the legend of Atlantis sinking in a single night? In Atlantis Exodus, you're right in the middle of that catastrophe, but with a clear goal: rescue as many citizens and as much knowledge as possible before everything turns into coral and sand. You take on the role of a king orchestrating the evacuation of this legendary civilization so that your people's legacy isn't erased from history.

The heart of the game is an innovative rotation system that keeps everyone on their toes. Forget the predictable routine of 'I do this, then you do that'. Here, conditions change constantly, and action possibilities rotate, forcing you to adapt your strategy in real-time. If you planned something for the next turn, the wheel might spin and your opportunity might change, requiring quick reflexes and flexible planning.

Beyond the Rondel, the game blends tile placement with the management of powerful abilities that can only be used once per game. This creates those high-tension moments: 'Do I use it now to secure this bonus or save it for the final turn?'. Turn order isn't random either; it's stat-based, meaning how you develop your character directly impacts who goes first. It's a medium-heavy game, perfect for those who enjoy thinking several moves ahead and don't mind an extra layer of technical complexity. If you love mythological themes and mechanics that challenge you to improvise while the city sinks, this is the game for you.
