Essentially I found the implementations of many puzzles annoying. As in, I’d figure out the solution but implementing it was tedious or unclear (the hot air balloon, that awful cave maze, submarine navigation, the Atlantean maze section…).
When it was good I enjoyed it but much of the time it let me down. Perhaps I had excessively high hopes but people praise that game so much. I replay the first two Broken Sword games every few years and love them but Fate of Atlantis was just kinda meh for me.

You have to try playing it as a child in the early 90s, or as an adult in 2025 but on drugs
