<div align="left">When <a href="http://atlantica.ndoorsgames.com/"><em>Atlantica Online</em></a> adds a new update, you know it's going to be a unique tie in to the history of the world.  This update is no different, as <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/category/atlantica-online"><em>Atlantica</em></a> adds a brand new, reality bending dungeon to their mix -- <a href="http://atlantica.ndoorsgames.com/center/event/200909/main.html">Vincent Van Gogh's Gallery</a>.<br /><br />Van Gogh's paintings have been collected by his friends, and have been put on display together in a local church.  But, when the paintings start to react with one another and open doors into other dimensions based on Van Gogh's work, it's up to the players to find out what's going on and what drove Van Gogh to madness before his death.<br /><br /><a href="http://atlantica.ndoorsgames.com/center/news/notice_view.asp?list_seq=1225">Other aspects of this expansion</a> include the addition of the Minstrel Paganini (the woman shown above), a brand new music wielding class based on the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Niccol%C3%B2_Paganini">17th century violinist Niccolo Paganini</a>.  The level cap is also being increased from 120 to 130, which also means that a few of your mercenaries will bet getting upgrades as well!<br /><br />All in all, this looks to be a trippy addition to an otherwise solid free-to-play title.  We applaud the use of Van Gogh's paintings as the new dungeon because, quite frankly, it's a pretty unique concept.  Enjoy your decent into madness, <em>Atlantica</em> players!  Don't cut off your own ear!<br /></div>
