ABOUT THE GAME

ATK is a 2D adventure role-playing game that takes place in the ancient "Three Kingdoms" period in Korea's history. Players will inhabit various roles as they adventure through the Three Kingdoms and beyond! What makes this game so special is the community that creates and drives storylines with each other, the events players host for each other, and the multitude of collaborations that define and evolve the game. Its nostalgic graphics and gameplay require very low system resources.
