I was having fun with this game until I ran into this arcade game trying to kill guards and gods before they shoot me down. Any idea if there are saves somewhere and if they would work with the Big Fish version and in Windows 7? I've spent about 2 hours so far with a break in between. I'll keep trying in this fashion but I don't know if I'll ever get it.

This site is not one that I have ever used and is unfamiliar to me, but it has some saved games for Atlantis Evolution here. I went so far as to download the file and then scanned it with Malwarebytes and it came up clean. There appeared to be many saved games that were numbered rather than given descriptive names. As I said, I don't have any prior experience with this site, though.

When the game came out, Jenny100 reviewed the game - here. I thought she wrote a well-balanced and objective review. Not sure why you are playing this when you could be playing Gabriel Knight 2. Just kidding - I know you will get around to that one eventually. And who knows, maybe you won't even like it!

I'm sorry I can't find my saves. I don't even remember which computer I played it on. If you compare the walkthrough at Big Fish with Marita's walkthrough of the original at http://www.gameboomers.com/wtcheats/pcAa/AE.htmand you see things missing from the Big Fish walkthrough, then you can guess that the Big Fish version has had parts removed and the saves wouldn't be compatible between versions. If the walkthroughs match up, then saves from the original might work. Also, if the Big Fish version uses autosaves, then it's different from the older version and saves probably wouldn't be compatible between them.

I read Jenny's review before I started the game and I am using MaG's walkthrough for guidance. So far it seems to be the same. BUT, can you tell me about the very beginning of the game (disc version) with the water vortex? When I first bought the game on disc I installed it and started it and it seems to me that I got dizzy IN the water thing. In the Big Fish version you are not actually in it and no dizziness. Am I remembering wrong and just imagined it that way for some reason? I still have the discs but Big Fish seemed the easier route. You save at will but I've not actually seen them. When you go back in the game you start where you left off. I've had no reason to try to load a prior save. Thanks for checking anyway Jenny for your saves. Still no luck and already getting tired of trying.

OOOHHHH. I got it!!!! Of course, even following the walkthrough I'm getting killed over and over now. I don't think I understand the walkthrough directions. I need to see if I have a printed copy which will be easier to use. I used to print them out whenever I bought a game. Shoot. I can't find my printed WT and I know from my games list that I have one. I used to have them all in one place in alpha order but somewhere along the way some got moved here and some there and I can't find this one, of course. Well, I managed to make it to the sky palace and exited the game for tonight. Totally using the walkthrough now.

I've got as far as the "lines puzzle" but THIS may be the one that does me in. I.DO.NOT.LIKE.THIS.PUZZLE! I have only been at it for a few minutes but my arm is hurting and I am more aggravated than I was after hours of the shooting game. It is not fun and feels impossible to do.
Well, after that rant I got it fairly quickly after all, but my arm does hurt and I would not ever want to do a puzzle like that again!!!
