No Logic Needed – Atlantis 2: Beyond Atlantis (Universal) Review

I am very happy this was ported to the iOS. I have never actually played the original so I was quite surprised when I found out having played the original just now, after playing the iOS port, a lot was cut out of this version. For instance, there is a particular puzzle that require you to actually think about placement and numbers in order to be solved. I don't know why this was cut out of the iOS version, but simply clicking the very puzzle itself solves it. I found this to be a huge disappointment. The images are a little blurrier and really could be made crisp again. This would also aid in all the puzzle processes, if those were ever brought back to this version. Overall, this is a port of an original point-and-click fantasy adventure/puzzle game (similar to the Myst series). I personally can't see anyone who had not played any Atlantis: The Lost Tales games to be able to keep their interest in this particular title. If you missed out on that great gem of a game, I can't say for sure whether this game could capture an audience all on its own. I, however, very much enjoyed it despite the fact I was robbed of the puzzling that is essential to the game. 3/5
