“my only real complaint is that the second half of the new atlantis campaign is really unsatisfying, but otherwise it's pretty good, especially by 2003 standards.”

“This game has been one of the games i have played over and over, it may be old but the joy it brings will last forever”
“Underrated RTS game, might be different to AoE but still satisfies that itch. Would 100% say that if you like the genre that this game is worth a revisit, or a first time play. Is a true classic.”

“If you're looking at this game after looking at the price of the "Retold" version of the game, get this one and you won't regret it. Voice acting is better, AI is janky but somehow also more consistent than the remake. You won't have the same nostaliga that I do but it's a hell…”

— a player, Steam review · 578 hrs played“My childhood game, although, i'm not too good at real-time strategies, i still enoy it! I like the story (Both Lost Trident and New Atlantis)! The game's fun, especially with friends! I recommend the game, it's not too expensive (i think), so yeah, here's that! Anyway, thanks…”
