Atlantis
Memory training through exploration
About Project
Antlantis is a legendary city-state that tragically sank to the bottom of the ocean. Legend has it that the inhabitants of Atlantis were the keepers of an unimaginable wealth, treasures that disappeared with the city and all its people.
Our adventurer hero finds the lost world of Atlantis and faces unique puzzles created by its inhabitants protect their treasures. To solved these puzzles, our hero must quickly memorize different combinations of symbols.
Atlantis is a first-person puzzle quest that employs memory-training game mechanics. Each level consists of several puzzle rooms with gradually increasing difficulty.
For VR Jam, we will show 3 levels of Atlantis. Each level will feature a different game mechanic, but all 3 levels focus on improving memory. We will collaborate with cognitive neuroscientists specializing in VR to help us develop game mechanics that improve memory and benefit from the immersion of VR.
Controls
Controls of the game engage all input methods provided by Samsung Gear:
- Selecting interactive items by gaze and activating by tap
- Swipe for rotation of the elements Controls are absolutely adapted for the game tasks and very intuitive for the player.
Mechanics

Innovation
The main advantage of the Atlantis is combining absorbing gameplay with training of the memory. Thanks to vivid setting of the Atlantis the player would not be bored by monotonous training but make a journey into fairy world.
