Wake up...you're dreaming.

Aside from the awesome turn-base battle system in Atlantica Onine Gold, which I will discuss in more depth later in the review - lovers of the fantasy genre will notice almost immediately that Atlantica Online Gold actually has a storyline! You are a descendant of the once great Atlantains, a race of proud people that through their hunger and lust for the substance Oriharukon - a rare and powerful material that once gone, sunk their great city Atlantis - lost everything, including their lives. You have been charged with finding and restoring Atlantis, and bringing peace and prosperity to the land. To do so, you must embark on a perilous journey through time and space, from the Pyramids to Beijing, searching for clues to the location of your lost city - I know, it's awesome. You begin the game in the dream world, and learn of your ancestry from the three sisters, who are counting on you to find Atlantis and save them. After a short and easily manageable tutorial you will be sent to the real world with a bunch of bodyguards, and begin your search.

Assembling your Army.

Once again sticking to true old-school style RPG gaming, Atlantica Online Gold  will see you controlling not a single character, but an entire party. You will begin the game by choosing your main character just like any MMO, but soon after you will be asked to recruit yourself mercenaries - fighters for hire that will make up the bulk of your party. During the tutorial you will be asked to select three Mercenaries from a list that will be added to your party - ranging anywhere from Archers and Monks, to Witches, Exorcists, Inventors, Oracles, Vikings, Beast Trainers and a heap more, there really is no shortage of class types to experiment with. Throughout the course of the game you will be able to recruit these other mercenaries from towns, managers, drops from monsters and completing certain quests. Although in the beginning you will only be controlling a party, you will eventually be leading a small army of 9 troops handpicked, trained, and levelled by you. It just doesn't get any better than this!
