Legendary globe-trotting adventurer Harrison Atlanta has been recently been reported missing. A world renowned archeologist, Professor Atlanta dedicated his life to uncovering ancient relics and solving mythical mysteries from civilizations long forgotten by the world.

His most recent and elusive project (codenamed “Project: Atlantis”) remains shrouded in mystery. Could this secretive new project have something to do with his disappearance?

Only a select few have ever ventured inside the Professor’s private study; a veritable cabinet of curiosities and treasures from times gone by. Perhaps the answer to this mystery lies within?

You and your team are elite detectives, and you have been contacted by the Professor’s assistant, Abigail. She is worried about the Professor and fears a dangerous fate may have befallen him! She needs your detective skills to comb the Professor’s study for clues and uncover the Professor’s fate!

Where is the Professor? What was he working on? And what exactly is “Project: Atlantis”?

We played the play-anytime digital version of this game and we really enjoyed it.  The game uses the Telescape software very well.  We found that everything worked as it should, and was clear and easy to understand.  The puzzles were logical and, thankfully, there were no red herrings to frustrate.    It was good fun, would recommend.  🙂

Finding the lost adventurer who was working on Project Atlantis was fun! 

This was a traditional lockbased game, but with a few surprises along the way. The signposting was great (maybe even too obvious) until a few misdirections that we think were intentional. 

The game is built on the telescape platform and we only had one problem along the way. We opened a drawer and it was empty - we think we saw an item (book) for a short time, but then it was gone. It did not show up in inventory. At that point in the game we got stuck and used the hint system to go on - and the hint system worked well, except it didn't explain how we were supposed to find the solution. The rest of the game flowed and we were happy again. 

The game had a low pricepoint compared to some other games we have played and it was a bit short, but that fit well into our day, so again - we were happy. 

All in all a straght-forward game with a small glitch. We still had fun.

story-drivengreat hostingquite difficult

Another really pleasant experience with the folks at Island Quest.  A lovely GM who kept things moving along.  A fairly traditional room with quite a lot of locks, but some very good tie-ins with the theme.  We were also really interested to hear about the speculation that Lanzarote is the real site of Atlantis!  I would rank this one a little below their really excellent magic market game, but both are definitely worth doing.

value for moneycleverstory-driven

I’ve done escape rooms in person at island escape and enjoyed the originality and the thought put inti their games. 

I was impressed with the use of the 3D room map with interactive elements via Telescape to be able to have a closer look at items as our host discovered them.

We were a group of 5 and all had chance to suggest where to explore and be the lead detective. Helena the host was very welcoming and helpful and quickly made the experience comfortable.

The rooms puzzles were very clever, well themed to the story and nicely paced with a few suprises along the way. Definitely recommend!

My family and I was fortunate to be one of the first to experience this virtual escape room. Having done an escape room before we knew what to expect. However, it blew our expectations. Helena Pegge was our games-master and our eyes and hands in the room. She worked the room for as as if we were there. Wherever you are in the world I can not recommend this virtual escape room enough. It's a great way to bring up to 6 households together for an evening of fun. We can still make memories in these challenging times.

Thank you for creating a great experience for my family. ♡

We will be back!!!

We played the online version of "Project Atlantis" and we loved it.  We've played lots of Escape Rooms, and this one kept us busy to the very end!  We only had 30 seconds left on the clock (2 players)!  The host was lovely and the puzzles were solid.  I would definitely recommend it.

Reviews by escape room review sites

It's always fun to do a traditional type escape room with puzzles we are quite familiar with. There was one tricky one that even trapped us for a second. We enjoyed sleuthing around the professors office and eventually finding what we came for but we're still unsure of the professors whereabouts...Hopefully he'll turn up one day? Or we can just keep what we found? Finders keepers!
