    A pretty FPS with a nice ambience that feels straight from the mid 20th century. The intro was nice to watch and listen to.
    However the combats are clunky and boring. There is no fun to be had the first two hours and I don't plan to ruin more time by playing further.
    What a disappointment it has been.

    The combat and mechanics are pretty fun, but the story, the puzzles and especially the ending are so boring and uninspired. The autosave not working was so much worse than everything else though. Especially when there's a closed room crowded with enemies and for 2 bosses inside it that can only be damaged in melee being the cherry on top.

    While the CEO of Mundfish and coworkers who worked on the creation of this game promote communism and neo-Nazi ideology through this game, it's difficult to find positive aspects of the game. It appears to be a part of Russian propaganda, sponsored by the Russian government, aimed at spreading their falsehoods through the gaming world.    … Expand

    The first hours are spent in laboratory corridors, but eventually the game opens up wide and actually mirrors another game with the numbers 451 in its DNA, which is the closest to it - the modern Prey. It's also the one that best shows what the game does masterfully, and where it stumbles on its ambitions. [Issue#326]

    Great level design, dangerous enemies, good gunplay and intriguing story come together to deliver an unforgettable game. [page 38]

    For a first try from a studio without any previous games, Atomic Heart is certainly an achievement albeit rough around (some) edges. Its aesthetic and mixture of well crafted action, puzzles and exploration is dragged down a bit by an abysmal open-world design (which thankfully doesn’t last long) and a rather predictable story. Nevertheless, the overall experience created the feeling that Mundfish is a studio that we should keep our eyes on in the future.
