I don’t really think it is a hard game to lead.
As I recall it is conveniently divided into chapters, and there are also no branching paths or anything like that, though there might be some things that you can discover earlier or later in the game, or possibly not discover at all? - It has been many years since I played it so I really can’t remember much of the gameplay, only the story and the graphics.

Anyway, I guess I could lead it!
(It would probably be harder/more embarrassing to drop out if I’m also leading it Wink)
But if anyone else want to take a stab at it, you are more than welcome.

SoccerDude, Iznogood has offered to lead Sinking Island (unless he meanwhile changes his mind - pleeease don’t!  Laughing )

I feel like I need a quiet 1st person game after Al Emmo so I’m going to vote for Beyond Atlantis (Atlantis 2).

Is anybody planning to play Atlantis 2 with the original disks? Obviously using an emulator such as DosBox. I liked the game. I have it in its original box. I wouldn’t mind playing it again. But I am not going to buy it again.

I’ve played it inside Virtual PC in the past—using a Windows 98 VM (host computer had 64-bit Windows 7).
I wasn’t planning to do that for this playthrough though.
If the DRM-free version didn’t behave on Windows 7, I’d try it in an XP VM.

You should be voting for Atlantis so you can rustle up some business when everyone buys all the sequels from your website! Grin

Soccerdude did you read my edit a few pages back about withdrawing my vote?
