from Fry's Electronics Summary: In a strange twist of fate, a beautiful young woman is forced to travel down the corridors of her own past lives, in order to better understand the evolution in human consciousness that is taking place now ..... and her own role in it. This is the fascinating background story for Cryo's latest addition to the Atlantis series, and it makes for an enthralling adventure game!
The story begins in the near future. The year is 2018, somewhere in the vast desolate reaches of the Sahara desert in an area known as the Hoggar. First we watch as a maniacal man makes the discovery of a lifetime: a Crystal Skull, the long hidden key to the 'Secret of the Ages', and therefore also the key to absolute power.
Then the scene changes. It is 2 years later and we see a young woman: an archaeologist who is driving across the desert in search of an ancient well, where legend says a hidden Egyptian city was built. Suddenly a startled animal leaps in front of her vehicle and, swerving sharply to avoid it, she crashes the car and knocks herself unconscious.
She comes to in the camp of the handsome desert nomad who has rescued her. He is a Targui, and as she soon discovers he is a man on a mission. He tells her to rest and he will take her back to civilization in the morning. For tonight he must kill the armed men who have taken over the site of that same well (the man with the skull and his henchmen), who are denying his people the water that is their lifeblood. But when he leaves to do so, unbeknownst to him she follows ..... and your adventure begins.
