Atlantica KH1

[Mr.Bones]

Does anyone got a map for it or somethin? Cause even after all these years later, i still wind up completely lost in this world.

this world is so ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ trash makes me so mad every time i get to it has the most convoluted map and worst movement system

[Nether Angel]

I just got there today and god I immediately just hate it so much. It's confusing and the movement just sucks.

[Ceriss]

Go to the trench in the big room to hit the palace, you need to find the room with the geyser in the center.

Palace is kinda obvious cause of the tridents pointing at it. Ariel's grotto is to the right.
To get to the Ship and Ursula you need to use the Dolphin in the big room. He'll take you straight to it.

That's all you really need to get the world done and over with.

In the geyser room I'm pretty sure you can smack an urchin to blow a hole in the wall and make a shortcut into it so you can reach the palace and that main room easily.

[ShuShay]

I stand by what Ceriss said.

Another shortcut you can make is between the ship and the grotto entrance. At the bottom of the ship area, enter the cave and activate the geyser. The stream will push you out by the grotto along with the chest that was blocking the hole. (The chest can also be opened.)

For this world, try to rely on magic more than physical attacks; it'll make the combat a lot easier.

Follow the Tridents then once you've been to Neptune, go to the area just outside the palace and go left to Ariels grotto.
From there go back from the Tridents and into the large open area by going up the upward stream in the middle of a room. Beat some heartless then ride the dolphin up the stream.
Once at the ship, get the chest with the Trident head and go back to Ariels grotto, there's a shortcut in the boat room.
Once you've done that you need to leave the area and go back to the boat bit. Sebastian can push a button behind a small broken boat behind the bigger boat. Follow this along.
Follow this path up and then when you're done, you go back to the boat and you can go to a room across the current.

That's actually my favourite World. Never understand the hate for it tbh but each to their own.

[J.P.]

Personally, I never really struggled with this world as a kid back on PS2. It's one of the bottom-tier worlds of the game, sure, but I don't hate it.
Boy was this world dirty in the sequel, though...

Unless you want to 100% the game, you don't have to play Atlantica to finish the story. You can do Halloween Town and ignore Atlantica. That's what I did.

There's Kingdom Heart gameguides out there, scanned in from the original gameguide books. Maps are included in those guides.

[Silyon]

Most of Atlantica is pretty linear, actually. Following the tridents (both forwards towards the palace and backwards towards the savepoint in the Tranquil Grove) or riding the dolphin (which is automated to drop you off at the shipwreck/Ursula's grotto) is the only way to get anywhere for most of the level. It's only after opening a number of shortcuts, such as from explosive sea urchins or the one geyser that dislodges the chest next to Ariel's grotto, that navigation can get a bit twisted. Just remember that the wall tridents will always point to the Palace save point and you should be fine.

While not my favorite, I always liked it. And honestly I had no issues at all navigating it this time around. Last time I played it was when the PS4 version came out. Actually got a little more turned around with Wonderland this time even though it's not that bad, I just was trying to do everything and forgot to knock down the teddy bear which was the only step I missed.

I really don't get the hate either. It's quite simple,
