    This game is a classic example of a chic idea, in the right hands. At least for me personally and for those who are not familiar with the Bioshock universe.

    Великолепная графика и оптимизация. Боевка на любителя, но мне нравится. Из того что мне не понравилось, это иногда не оправданно длинные и иногда кринжевые диалоги.

The game turned out to be very juicy and high quality. I hope that Mundfish has enough money, motivation and script to continue and create a new franchise. those who write that the game is bad or something else, then it's not so clear. On the one hand, I agree that the balance in complexity suffers a lot, there are unfinished moments, but it's all just ridiculous compared to all the pluses. On the other hand, there are people who rate the game only because it was made by Russian developers, and this is the only thing that infuriates them in this game. I do not regret a single cent that I spent on this masterpiece. I recommend everyone to buy! Expand

    El juego me ha encantado, tiene sus cosas flojas, pero al pasarmelo todo me ha dejado con muy buen gusto.
    Lo Mejor: La ambientación, los disparos son muy satisfactorios, los puzles, el mundo explorable semi abierto (entiendo que a muchos no les guste o les confunda) y la historia esta bien.
    Lo Peor: Las partes de plataformas o parkour totalmente innecesario. El Guante habla demás.

What is the most important! No grind. All new games are sick of grind. This game gives you just enough time to complete all the story. It's not long, not boring, not repetative. I like it!

The studio's dedication to creating unique and immersive gaming experiences is clearly evident in every aspect of Atomic Heart, from its stunning visuals to its intricate storyline and engaging gameplay mechanics.

    Atomic Heart is a game that truly delivers an immersive and engaging game experience. From the moment you start playing, the game's stunning visuals and unique atmosphere draw you in, transporting you to a world that is both familiar and completely foreign.

    The gameplay mechanics are top-notch, with a variety of weapons and abilities that allow for a fully customized approach to each encounter. The game's storyline is equally impressive, weaving a complex and intricate narrative that keeps you on the edge of your seat.

    But what really sets Atomic Heart apart is its attention to detail. Every aspect of the game, from the sound design to the character animations, is executed flawlessly, creating a truly immersive world.

    Overall, Atomic Heart is a game that I would highly recommend to anyone who is looking for a truly exceptional gaming experience. Mundfish has truly themselves with this game, and I have no doubt that they will continue to produce exceptional games that push the boundaries of what is possible in the gaming industry. If you're a fan of high-quality, immersive gaming experiences, then you owe it to yourself to check out Atomic Heart, and keep an eye on what Mundfish has in store for the future.

    Being based on something doesn't mean that the game is trash. I like to see this game as a meal your mother prepared you when you were a child and loved it and now you can eat it again 15 years later and still enjoy it like when you were young.

It is not at all like ordinary games and completely destroys stereotypes about the USSR and Western propaganda, it turns out not to be as scary as they show, people also live there and judging by the game, there can be serious progress with robots :)

    I want to express my gratitude to Mundfish for this creation. Over the past ten years, not many beautiful, interesting, exciting games have come out. But this game is one of that list.

    Atomic Heart about smart heads and cold hearts.

    I'm already waiting for the DLC and the sequel :) It's especially cool if the story of the twins is revealed there, who has completed the game knows what I'm talking about.

    Pros:
    + Beautiful visual, very nice picture and beautiful characters.
    + Quality sound, ambient sounds, soundtracks and voice acting, especially Russian voice acting. Yes, yes, the voice for babushka Zina is actually suitable.
    + An interesting story, the plot is passed in one breath. *SPOILER* thought out to such trifles as music from the future.
    + Hardcore game, or rather the strength of even simple "Vovchick" makes casual players cry.
    + Large variation of weapons and skills.
    + Quite interesting "side quests" that help the game interact with the game world, although it may seem to someone that it is bring - give it. This is an RPG game.
    + Twin robots.
    + There are no stupid Western agendas of the 21st century in this game.
    + There is humor with different overtones. 18+ game.
    Cons:
    - The main character has a hairstyle that is not typical for 1955 in the USSR - this makes the look at the character not entirely authentic.
    - Bosses are actually quite easy.
    - **** Pie" - the protagonist's redundancy.
    - Manual saves are already too much, sometimes they can roll back the game progress by 30 minutes back, due to the oversight of the player who *died*.

    For Mundfish's first game, this is a very good result. This gives hope that game developers know how to make games. Note to other AAA game developers.
    We are proud that our Russian guys were able to do such a miracle, thanks again to Mundfish!

Где у разработчиков всё ещё осталась фантазия и остались острые зубы для того, чтобы не стесняться делать так, как хотят они сами.

The last few years I literally had gaming impotence, and at the same time, when I played this game, I was happy as a child. I really don't understand the negative reviews, it seems to me that these people haven't even played this game and judge it by scandals related to it, such as politics or a scandal with the sexualization of something Expand

    Good optimization, the atmosphere of the Soviet Union, all this is quite unusual. Very reminiscent of "Bioshock infinite" and "Prey" in terms of puzzles. Well done developers, you can see that they tried. I recommend to buy.

    Good experience.
    Amazing atmosphere.
    Yes, many gamers will not be able to understand all that the game offers, but these are just their problems.

    One of the best releases for the last few years. Awesome visuals, really great combat, fresh setting, we didnt see much USSR-like games, looks cool. Story is ok, but nothing special. Game is like compilation of bioshock + metro:exodus + dying light for me.

    Awesome game! Very atmospheric. It do not demonize USSR, but shows good and funny part of it. It has a lot of funny link that is understandable only for people who lived at that time. Believe each person who remember that time do like this game. But there are some bugs and visual artifacts. But it will be fixed.

    Fun gameplay and cool mechanics, also an intriguing plot, all within a stunning world with a nice art direction, just like Bioshock. Detractors just review bomb this game because it does not fit their narrative, but with Bioshock they didn’t seem to have a problem (pretends to be shocked). Both are great.

    What an amazing game! The amazing atmosphere of the Soviet Union, where people lived in kindness, joy and loved each other, it reminds me so much of my childhood - cartoons - "Well, wait" on all TVs in the game, great music by brilliant Russian composers and popular singers of that time, just like Alla Pugacheva.

    As far as I've played, the game is a very good game. I don't understand why it got such a low rating. If it's because the russians made the game, you're seriously a racist

    AAA game made by newbie developers from the CIS.

    Atomic Heart uses concept of USSR in 50-s. The feeling of nostalgia for most post-soviet players will make you feel great, everything is made very well in terms of atmoshpere. Developers used common sense making characters in game. You can remember a lot of characters that you meet during the walkthrough. Some humans, your smart hand,

    Atomic Heart uses concept of USSR in 50-s. The feeling of nostalgia for most post-soviet players will make you feel great, everything is made very well in terms of atmoshpere.

    Developers used common sense making characters in game. You can remember a lot of characters that you meet during the walkthrough. Some humans, your smart hand, even some robots. I like the design.

    There are a lot of jokes, dialoges, text stories and audio records. Bad thing that some of them can be skipped just by walking into random map trigger, which causes any audio to stop, so players have to wait if they want to know everything about this world.

    Gunplay is amazing. You can customize your abilities, upgrade you character, upgrade you guns. Hitreg is made pretty good for both melee and long-range weapons. Players have to grind a lot of resources to keep up with strong enemies. Grinding is important thing at the begging of the game, because robots are very thick and it's difficult to defeat them using non upgraded stuff. Mid-game, players will have important upgrades, that'll make gameplay way more interesting.

    Some puzzles are quite interesting. Some puzzles are required to open additional paths and items, some to continue the story.

    The optimisaton is great. Most GPUs can handle this game easily on High settings 60 FPS with 1080p resolution. The bad thing - there's no full ray tracing, only some parts of NVIDIA technology.

    If you like Bioshock series or Metro Exodus, this game might be good for you.

    You may disagree with me, but I got more pleasure than from God of war Ragnarok, you can rightly ask why? Because Atomic Heart doesn't pressure you with seriousness or philosophical questions

    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]

    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.
