Verbatim Box Synopsis
The year is 1994. A powerful disturbance rocks the Caribbean. From its crystal depths rises the ancient island sung of in legend... ATLANTIS, the Lost Continent!
Stranded by the powerful maelstrom created by the continent's mysterious reappearance, a group of intrepid adventurers set foot on the island's forbidden shores. There, the daring raiders engage in deadly combat with savage plunderers armed with an arsenal of subtle, deadly traps -- and a doomsday array of atomic weapons trained on the capitals of the world!
