Is Atlantis no Nazo still worth playing in 2026?

A labyrinthine platformer from Sunsoft, Atlantis no Nazo sends its hero to explore a hundred or so underground rooms linked by secret passages, searching for the exit while avoiding sometimes sneaky traps. The sprawling structure, the free exploration and the many secrets make it a baffling, demanding title, become cult in Japan for its strangeness. The difficulty is fearsome and opaque. For someone curious about offbeat Japanese platformers, a retro exploration fan or a collector, the title keeps a singularity and a mystery that are its whole charm.
