TRIVIA

This is a special contest version of Atlantis. It was sent to the high scorers of the Defend Atlantis contest so that they could determine the top four scorers. The top four players from Atlantis II would be flown to Bermuda for an Atlantis shoot-out and a chance to win $10,000. The contest was won by Andrew Levine (fifteen years old at that time), scoring 1,968,800 points.

While the game graphics are the same, it is much faster and fewer points are awarded for hits, making the game much more challenging. The actual scoring graphics are slightly different as well.

The cartridge looks identical to Atlantis, though a sticker with Atlantis II typed on it was stuck at the rear of the box.

It is said that only 93 copies of this game were made.
