ATTAATL(I’m not going to be typing that over an over again) doesn’t really tell you what do in game. You start off staring at a white space with something that looks like a giant mesh ball in front of you. Right… Until of course you realised the title is ‘Activate The Three Artefacts And Then Leave’. Gotcha! But it’s not as simple as that.
You see ATTAATL is a maze game unlike any other. It’s also an optical illusion that can ruin your eyes if you stare at the monitor too long. Not sure if that’s the effect the designers were going for but whatever. The giant ball you see in front is made out of a collection of cubes that I can only describe as epilepsy inducing.
As you explore this giant spherical thing, you move in the opening and explore the cavernous innards of this ‘hypnotic death star’ thing. The sound starts to grate, you hear static and then you find more caverns, you move deeper inwards. Then you hear a more melodic sounds than the static you’ve been hearing. Something other than a cube.
You move closer and it moves, the colour of the room changes. You’ve activated one of the three artifacts. Now go find the other two and then try to leave this hallucinogenic environment. Considering how eye numbingly painful it is for me to stare at the walls of this thing, I doubt I’ll find my way out. Can you?
