Atlanteon -- Supposedly a game.

Atlanteon is supposedly a game about underwater combat between mer-people. It has had so so so much promise, but instead, they made it a game about math. And I use the term "game" loosely. The box, while somewhat flimsy, has some pretty artwork, and a neat plastic tray for holding the pieces, which are cardboard tiles and wooden markers:

Play is essentially placing a few scorable tiles, then trying to place your own tiles adjacent to it in such a way that the numbers on your tiles sum out to be greater than the numbers on your opponent's tiles. That's it. I played it with my brother twice, to make sure that it absolutely sucked, and then put it away and never touched it again. Inexplicably, some people enjoy this game... But then again, some people inexplicably enjoy enemas, so I can't be too surprised.

If you happen to be someone who looks for excuses to get a colonoscopy, but really don't have the money for regular colonoscopies, you can find Atlanteon for about $5 here or here. I tried to find a picture of someone playing the game, but this was the closest I could find:

FUN: 1. There is no game here. It's just an exercise in math.

THEME: 1. It could be a game about proctology for all the theme matters.

QUALITY: 2. The wooden pieces are nice, can't lie about that.

ART: 2. Lazy reuse of art with different colors.

INTERACTIVITY: 3. If you use the game as kindling for a bonfire, it could
                                   have some nice interactive components.

COMPLEXITY: 1. Can you add? Then you can "play" Atlanteon.

LUCK: 1. No luck. Just lay tiles down and add.

I recommend this game to you if you look forward to your next appointment with your proctologist.
