Atlantis 'Native': The Lost Tales

Atlantis Native brings back Atlantis: The Lost Tales (Cryo Interactive, 1997) on today's machines: Windows, macOS (Apple Silicon), Linux, and right here in your browser.

Seth, the queen's new guard, arrives in Atlantis just as Queen Rhea disappears. The whole adventure is there: the 360° panoramas, the cinematics, the talking heads with their 3D mouths in time with the voices, the seventeen puzzles and the end credits. It plays from the first screen to the last.

You need your own copy of the game. Atlantis Native is a new engine: it contains none of the game's pictures, videos, voices or music, which belong to its publisher. It plays them from your copy: the GOG.com release (English, French, German, Spanish, Italian) or the original CDs (English, French, German, Dutch, Swedish, Spanish, Italian, with or without Cryo's patch 1.01). The desktop versions can even play straight from your CD images.

Faithful, then better if you wish

• Faithful by default: the engine is a translation of the original, checked against it, picture for picture and sample for sample.
• HD mode: the panoramas and the 3D faces drawn at your screen's resolution, sharp subtitles, the interface art smoothed.
• Widescreen: the panorama fills a wide screen, the projection carried on past the original's edges.
• Fixes of the original's bugs, each one optional (F10).
• Full screen with F11 or Alt+Enter.

Play in the browser

Click to launch, then choose the folder of your game: its files are read inside your browser and never sent anywhere, and your saves stay in this browser. Chrome, Edge, Firefox or Safari, with a mouse and a keyboard.

Download

Windows 10 and later (64-bit), macOS 11 and later (Apple Silicon), Linux (x86-64). The builds are not code-signed: Windows SmartScreen may warn the first time (click "More info", then "Run anyway"); on macOS, open the app once, then go to System Settings, Privacy & Security, and click "Open Anyway".

Requirements

Your own copy of Atlantis: The Lost Tales: the GOG.com release, or the original CDs (or images of them).
