Official description
Only you can save the lost city of Atlantis, one of the greatest civilizations man has ever known. You command the three defense posts that guard the skies. As the dreaded Gorgon fleet descends on Atlantis, you must destroy them - or perish! 1 or 2 players can help defend the submerged city of Atlantis. The longer you last, the faster they come. Some enemy ships fly slowly but steadily over Atlantis. Others streak across the sky. Knock out a Bandit Bomber and annihilate its entire Gorgon squad. Blitz them!

'Strahlen der Teufelsvoegel' is the German release of 'Atlantis'. They changed the color a bit (it is red instead of green) and the enemies are monster-birds and not spaceships.
Ocean City Defender was pirated by Zellers and has improved graphics.

About special contest version Atlantis II:
No catalog #, rarity 10 Unbelievably Rare, 1 player, Uses the joystick.
Only 10 of these cartridges where made. They were given to the finalists in the 'Defend Atlantis Contest' along with paperwork certifying the authenticity of the game. Not all of these cartridges are accounted for. This special edition of the game allowed for score higher than 1 million, but no one has made it near that score. It has different faster ships and other designs to make the game harder than the prequel.
