    A shockingly tasty looking game for its time. It had everybody drooling at its gorgeous visuals. I had no PC back then but I was stuck looking at the pics shown in games magazines. Another fantastic looking adventure game released two months before Indy IV the same year : Darkseed, with many visuals supervised by HR Giger himself.

    I was expecting a more detailed analysis, you didn't even showed that picture from the Azores island which they painted over it, there was no analysis of Crete at all, no Montecarlo, no Thera island (beautiful backgrounds, you have to play without Sophia). When you reached the lava maze you just skipped it, it's one of the most moody backgrounds ever done. You also didn't notice those weird pixels that are like hanging from the final atlantis building, what are those supposed to be ? wires ? And finally, you never mentioned the color cycling technique used all over the game, from the lucasarts logo, to the water effects in crete, to the lava in atlantis.

    What I remember being the most impressed with about the art style of this game, apart from how richly they used their 256 colors, was how they also used palette cycling to provide very smooth background animations for trickling water, lava effects, and (my favorite) the spiral light fixtures in Atlantis itself (like at 12:00). They even used it to gradually brighten pitch-black environments, like your eyes were getting used to the dark, to give you a little help when you were struggling with "find the light source" puzzles. It's all ancient history now of course, but at the time it was obvious that this was a labor of love for the artists, animators, and programmers.
