Atlantica has been the most drastically changing world throughout the ''[[Kingdom Hearts]]'' games. In each game its gameplay is completely different. In [[Kingdom Hearts]], [[Ariel]] joins [[Sora]] as a party member and things carry out much like in any other world, with the exception that the controls are different to fit Sora's new form. In ''[[Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories]]'', Sora doesn't change form at all, and the world is treated just like all other worlds. In ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]'', possibly the biggest change, only two areas are able to be traveled and does not further the story through gaming battles, but through songs.

''Kingdom Hearts'' gives Atlantica a sprawling design that requires certain special abilities to navigate successfully.  [[Sora]] and company arrive in the '''Tranquil Grotto''', where Ariel and Flounder host the swimming tutorial. From there, the party travels forward, practicing battle in the '''Undersea Valley''', following the trident marks to their final destination. One exit leads to the ironically-named '''Calm Depths''', which plays host to a swift moving current that pushes Sora and his party around unless they use Ariel's dolphin friend or obtain the [[Mermaid Kick]] ability. Following the trident mark here takes the group to the '''Undersea Cave''' with a strong current of its own. Making it past the current leads to the '''Undersea Gorge''', a vast area which leads to several other places in Atlantica. On the opposite side of the gorge are the entrances to '''Ariel's Grotto''' and, under the crate, the end of a hidden tunnel that leads to the '''Sunken Ship'''. Somewhere in the middle is the entrance to '''Triton's Palace''' and the '''Throne Room''' within.  Also there, but easily missed, is the '''Undersea Garden''', hidden to the left of the Palace entrance.
