Atlantis: The Lost Empire – Trial by Fire is a 2001 first-person shooter game developed by Zombie Studios and published by Disney Interactive. It was released on May 18, 2001, for Microsoft Windows. The game is based on the film Atlantis: The Lost Empire.[1]

The first levels correspond to Atlantis: The Lost Empire – Search for the Journal, which was distributed separately weeks earlier in 2001, as a demo to promote Trial by Fire.

Gameplay[edit]

This game mainly follows the events in the movie. The player begins on the USS Ulysses as the Leviathan is attacking, and must escape through the underwater cave system on a subpod, evading Leviathan spawn. The player must navigate through the caverns to Atlantis, and solve puzzles to reach the crystal at the end of the game.

Reception[edit]

Trial by Fire was met with mixed reviews, as GameRankings gave it a score of 56.22%,[2] while Metacritic gave it 50 out of 100.[3]

The game was rated 5 out of 10 by IGN, which called the levels "incredibly short, small, and fairly uninspired" and recommended to avoid the game.[1]
