Atlantis: The Lost Empire – Trial by Fire is a 2001 first-person shooter game developed by Zombie Studios and published by Disney Interactive. It was released on May 18, 2001, for Microsoft Windows. The game is based on the film Atlantis: The Lost Empire.[1]
The first levels correspond to Atlantis: The Lost Empire – Search for the Journal, which was distributed separately weeks earlier in 2001, as a demo to promote Trial by Fire. It was released for free in children's magazines, DVDs, Kellogg's cereal boxes, and in pharmacies.[2][3] The game was also offered as a free download through Disney Interactive's website in June 2001.[4]
Gameplay
This game mainly follows the events in the movie. The player begins on the USS Ulysses as the Leviathan is attacking, and must escape through the underwater cave system on a subpod, evading Leviathan spawn. The player must navigate through the caverns to Atlantis, and solve puzzles to reach the crystal at the end of the game.
