Atlantis Rising

The players are citizens of Atlantis working together to build a mystical portal before the island sinks beneath the waves. They place Atlanteans across eight areas to gather resources, harness mystical energy, and search the libraries for powerful one-time effects. Areas closer to the sea provide greater rewards but face a higher risk of flooding, while misfortune cards can destroy island tiles and strand workers for the turn. The players must also defend against escalating Athenian attacks and manage limited energy to predict or prevent disasters. Variable portal components set the difficulty, from Easy to Cosmic.
