The Mall of Atlantica Online
Dec 01, 2008
MMORPG.com Atlantica Online Correspondent Matt Plourde writes this overview of the mall system in NDoors' Atlantica Online
Travel the world and see the sights. Then kill the likes of Dracula and the mummies. In Atlantica Online, there are many real-world places and people that players will recognize - the Great Wall of China, the pyramids of Egypt, Shakespeare, and da Vinci are just some of the locales and characters that populate the world of this MMORPG that playfully blends fact and fiction. But there are elements in this game that won’t be so familiar to an MMO gamer, like turn-based action.
Atlantica Online makes use of “classic turn-based gameplay” to bring its MMORPG to life. And rather than the standard one character used in MMOs, Atlantica uses nine-character groups to allow players to interact with the world. They will have one main character and can assemble up to eight mercenaries to fight with them.
Combine the turn-based battles with the mercenaries, and that means players must use the limited time it has - up to 30 seconds - to move and manipulate all the characters, whether it be to attack, use magic, defend, or change formation. Having to make all these decisions requires both strategy and quick-thinking. In addition to fast-paced battles, Atlantica Online provides a deep RPG environment in which players can take control of a town like London and even form its own nation, then go to war against other nations.
Atlantica Online has been dubbed a “new adventure in strategic turn-based MMORPGs
