    Graphics are too notch. Game play and combat are very very fun and slightly addicting. Story is funny and edgy. And best of all it’s not like all most all new games are right now. Which is super politically correct and watered down with **** I could of done without The overwhelming communist tone. But that’s my capitalist opinion lol.

    Everything I wanted comes I this game. A weird world that is interesting to explore and honestly haunting. The gameplay is straight from the bioshock infinite but with a lot more impact. The dialog can be cringe worthy, but i appreciated the world building it provided. The music rocks my socks I do say

    An unexpectedly fun game. Game idea similar to bioshock, Portal and some classic shooters.
    This game is not for everyone, but it's great

    It's a good game.
    Kids who rate the game looking at the political situation in the world I want to point out that the game is rated 18+, so you have to wait another 10 years before you play and rate the game, but to rate not on the national characteristic of the developers.

    This game represents another (non-common) loock on retro-futurism i mean commonly when you think about this art style you can remember such games as Bioshock or Fallout and so on but all these games represent American retro-futurism here we got Soviet Union aesthetics. it permeates every aspect of the game. Recognizable soundtracks that can vary as remixes or be original as it were.This game represents another (non-common) loock on retro-futurism i mean commonly when you think about this art style you can remember such games as Bioshock or Fallout and so on but all these games represent American retro-futurism here we got Soviet Union aesthetics. it permeates every aspect of the game. Recognizable soundtracks that can vary as remixes or be original as it were. Recognizable elements of furniture from the Soviet Union that are probably still in your basement/garage or even in your room (I’m talking about CIS). And from this point of view, it is kinda impressive how this old technology represented and developed in something new in case of retro-futurism. But if we look at the graphical part of the game as it is you can notice that the open world has much less detail and looks kinda empty compared to closed spaces such as different factories, hospitals or theatres. So in conclusion audio/visual part of the game is very strong, especially from point of view of CIS players. The gameplay part is an interesting mix of first-person shooter and puzzle game, and to my taste game is kinda overloaded with puzzles it no so complicated but it is met too often. Arsenal in this game is no so big but offset by a large number of upgrades. The last thing is a plot of the game which permeates by a lot of jokes (some of them are kinda vulgar some of them can be understood only by CIS players) with some interest twists. Another great fact is that game can offer not only a happy end (i hate how often nowadays a game has only this option) but also a bad ending. As result we got game that like layered cake some of the layer you will enjoy so much some of them you will glad to miss but overal its original strong game which brings a breath of fresh air into the established niche of retrofuturism.

    P.S. I forgot to say that this game doesn't have any technical issues compared to the latest game releases, is it that hard to optimize games?

    Talking about game it's amazing. Very original and beautiful setting. Addictive game play. Good story. 2 things I don't like are sense of humor of main character, and eternal resurrection of robots in open world is more annoying thing than challenge.
    I can recommend this game to all fans of retrofuturism and all FPS games fans.

    If this was an AAA game, this would be a 6, maybe 6.5. But for an "almost" indie game? And the first studio's game??? This is a solid 9.

    It is a great game, the only thing I disliked it was some bugs. Two times I lost my save while I was playing and my character became stuck in the map lol. So when I loaded the game, my save was from 2 hours ago (and I saved a lot of times after that!). Some other minor visual bugs, but in general the game is beautiful and the story is very interesting.

    Este juego no le envidia nada a un Bioshock o a un DIshonored.

    La historia es buena y la ambientación, tanto los lugares como la música, son lo que la hacen espectacular. La jugabilidad tampoco se queda atrás. La calidad gráfica también es espectacular y no le envidia nada a otros juegos TOP del mismo género. Quizás deberían de haber más tutoriales o textos explicativos al principio

    Quizás deberían de haber más tutoriales o textos explicativos al principio que podrían ayudar a atajar ciertas confusiones. Aun así el juego no se me ha hecho complicado. Lo he jugado en dificultad media y los jefes finales no se me han hecho pesados (me he conseguido familiarizar con la mecánica y he jugado a bastantes juegos de este género). Podría haberlo jugado a dificultad máxima sin problema.

    PD: Este juego ha recibido un trato injusto al ser criticado por el hecho de ser, simplemente, ruso. Y es por eso que a nivel de Europa y Norteamérica (los países controlados por los EEUU y la OTAN) tanto desde los medios del videojuego como por parte de muchos jugadores ha recibido review bombing por el hecho de ser, simplemente, ruso.

    PD(2): Las revistas del videojuego ponen mejor nota a juegos que en calidad están mucho peor que este. Aka: Cyberpunk 2077 desde el primer día que salió; Fallout 4, Skyrim ANNIVERSARY EDITION,... ¿Porqué será? $$$

Probably, this is the first part, and in the second ability they will do much better, but so far I do not use them. More precisely, not as often as I did in Prey, BioShock and Dishonored. But, nevertheless, the game is very interesting and very cool. The game world is also very interesting. I like the micromanagement of guns, a backpack, this has not happened in my memory for a long time. I like all sorts of gadgets for guns, with additional damage to opponents. This moment, in contrast to the abilities, was done well. I love the cutscenes, they are beautiful. The plot is also very interesting, but for the most part it is the gameplay and audio diaries that give you. I missed that **** with Bioshock and Doom 3, I guess, where you could listen to the diary, get involved in the story and still play the game. But graphics are 50/50. This is Unreal Engine 4, and the shoals of graphics, because of which I want to say that these are Unreal Engine graphics are visible here to the naked eye. All the same, while different Home Engines, in terms of graphics, outperform Unreal. I hope the situation will change with the arrival of Unreal Engine 5 in games. I'm serious, you'll burn out badly if you stick to the local graphics in the game. If you want a grafonic game, on Unreal Engine, then you are in The Callisto Protocol. Music, not bad licensed, as well as mixed and Mick Gordon's music. Especially in computers and battles. In general, thanks to Mundfish for letting me return to 1998 and Half-Life, I hope that the second Atomic Heart will be in two or three years, and there will be less jambs, and more BioShock gameplay. Well, or Half-Life gameplay. 9 out of 10 Expand

    Finally a good Bioshock inspired FPS (it's more inspired by Biosock Infinite! Not the earlier more immersive sim games).
    A few things that I see as different from what the marketing said is that is not really open world, it just have some very open levels.
    The story and tone are really unique, the main plot doesn't re invent the wheel but is good and it's full of good character

    Last note something incredible this dev team did was invent a good looting system! AAA games should copy this! PLS more easy looting

You get different guns that calls for different play styles, and on top of that, each gun has dedicated upgrades that changes or adds functionality which makes it even more fun. Enemy interactions are fun, they usually take damage/get damaged realistically..

    Story and setting were more than good enough to captivate me through the end. Setting is actually rather spectacular, and story has multiple plot twists that hit you back to back. I was interested all the time. World is crafted with a lot of detail and lore and you can read all about it in in-game terminals.

    Open world is there, but it is not tedious as most open world games are. It is a condensed world that just acts as a tool to progress the story. You enter "hubs" called training grounds for weapon upgrades and additional loot, and these locations boast different challenges, platforming puzzles and so on. You do not need to do all of them; game specifically tells you what upgrades you will find in specific training grounds, which is a welcome feature. This way you can focus on the upgrades for the weapons you desire and ignore others. However game was so captivating that I ended up completing most of the training grounds, it simply was fun.

    Bads
    Well story is a bit cliche, and dialogue can get cringey at times (not all times! sometimes it gets very philosophical and makes you stop and think about stuff).
    Sometimes there are too much dialogue to a point it overlaps with stuff.
    Quest design is a bit archaic, mostly they're fetch/go grab type of quests. However overall gameplay loop and story makes it bareable.

    For the first game of the studio, the project is outstanding: it has huge artistic potential, the gameplay is immersive, and the battles are tense. But it is also not quite what many people waited for – it's a little creepy (in a good way), mysterious (mostly exploration and new enemies), immersive (hidden items, notes, puzzles), but also a little awkward here and there.

    The ugliest part is the dialogue: they tried to make the protagonist look stupid, but he is dumb, angry, rude, and constantly does things, that make you feel in a creep's shoes.

    Good game, interesting setting. The only minus of the game is that there is no distribution on Steam for Russia. The start price is justified. P.S. Developers should not suffer because of the disagreements of politicians, they are just artists, and for the most part they do not live in Russia.

Played on PC, medium skill gamer, started on medium difficulty then switched to hard for better experience.
    For anyone out there reading this - ignore other reviews that contain "bad optimization" (on PC; that might be a thing on consoles, I have no idea) and "soviet propaganda", since the game runs great and once you play the game and finish it you'll see what the story is really about.

    Well optimized beautiful game with good gameplay. Good story, strong role of main character, yet awkward voice acting (Filatova is bad in Russian) from time to time and lots of references and easter eggs for ethnical post-soviet players that makes poking around in notes, messages and audios much more interesting. Ambient music is good, combat music is great yet some gameplay stutters at large combat areas makes it stop, that's frustrating.
    Sidenote. Beating around the bush about sex is just great way to go to make fun of ideological facade of society. You may find it misplaced, I find it hilarious.
    Great game. 9/10. My score is based on fact that I'm ethnical Russian, your experience may vary.
    PS: I have no idea why does so many reviews compares it to BioShock, since there's nothing common between these two games except somewhat retro-futuristic setting and combat "powers".

    Отличная оптимизация, хороший геймплей и отлично срежисированная история. Сюжет хороший, но возможно не хватает развития в первой половине игры. Окружение и мир созданы с большим вниманием к деталям. Главный герой отыгрывает свою роль отлично. Российская озвучка великолепная, кроме Филатовой. Игра захватывает внимание. 9/10.

From beautiful visual style to excellent music and immersion in the game world. The gameplay is addictive, but it has drawbacks in the form that not all abilities make sense and not all items of equipment are useful in combat, besides this can be such a feature of the game, but I think that such a slow movement is rather a minus than a plus it would be better if the gameplay was faster and more energetic. I think there should be no questions about graphics and optimization on a PC, because everything is done well. There are such claims to the open world, such as the fact that Moskvich in the game is apparently the same in quality as in real life and explodes from three collisions, also the fact that there are no particular points of interest in the game, except for polygons, so after completing the story, continue there is no point in playing, but as I remember, the developers did not say that this is a new Witcher, Red Dead Redemtion or a new part of the Elder Scrolls where you can live. The combat is good, but as already mentioned it is a little slow and needs more variety. Despite the fact that the reviews do not pay due attention to the plot, I am ready to say that it pleasantly surprised me, especially the ending, which gives a good plot to continue, I also did not predict all the plot moves in advance and concluding the topic, we can say that the plot is good concentrated, well remembered and not squandered for 100 hours or more. There are not so many characters influencing the plot, but everyone has a character and is more or less interesting, I don’t agree with the claim that the main character and glove talk a lot because it better reveals the world and characters, I can’t help but agree that the main character is a bit of a gopnik , however, this is explained by the plot and makes it more expressive, and of course, one should not forget about the Ballerina Twins (because of which even Tibetan monks would refuse the Abstinence procedure), Eleanor (vulgar refrigerator) and Baba Zina, who became not only symbols of the game, but also memes. In conclusion, I want to say that the game turned out to be interesting and enticing, because you do not have time to get tired of it and it captures you with its atmosphere, design and musical accompaniment, it is also worth mentioning that boycotting or vice versa praising the game because of its political opinion, as well as criticism of the game, even without really knowing anything about it, is stupidity and complete disrespect not only for the authors, but also for art in general Expand

    Great game, I haven't had this much fun playing a game in a long time.

    The game brought about very pleasant emotions upon release because I associated it heavily with Cyberpunk, with all its development problems, delays, and difficult launch. But it turned out to be an amazing game.
    Setting: This is the most important part of the game. It earns a big like from me because the setting is incredibly interesting, new, and the developers have done an amazing job of conveying its atmosphere. I would like to see more interesting games set in a retro-futuristic setting with Soviet or Sovietpunk decorations.
    Gameplay: Very enjoyable, intuitive, and lively. I want to try out different weapons and abilities. There are enough combinations to build different character builds. Each player can experience their own gameplay style. There were some boring, or rather, tedious moments, but these are normal for AAA games. After all, the game is huge and making it perfect is very difficult.
    Graphics: The game looks stunning on both PC and consoles. The textures are in high resolution, and you can even read the smallest newspapers, which adds liveliness to the game world.
    World: The story locations are very interesting, and different secrets (usually loot) are scattered everywhere. Each location is worth exploring, but to be honest, after 6 hours, it starts to get a little tedious. The open world is uninteresting and unnecessary for the game, so it's definitely a minus point.

    Отличная игра, давно не получал такого удовольствия от игры.

    Игра вызвала очень приятные эмоции на релизе т.к очень ассоциировал ее с Киберпанком, куча проблем с разработкой, переносы, тяжелый запуск И так далее. Но оказалось, что игра великолепная
    Сеттинг: Это важнейшая часть игры. Только за это игра получает от меня жирный лайк т.к сеттинг невероятно интересный, новый и у разработчиков получилось невероятно круто передать его атмосферу. Хотелось бы видеть больше интересных игр в сеттинге ретро-футуризма с декорациями СССР или проще СоветПанком.
    Геймплей: Очень приятный, интуитивный, бодрый. Хочется пробывать разные оружия и способности. Достаточное количество комбинаций для построения билдов. Каждый игрок сможет испытать собственный игровой опыт. Были и скучные, я бы сказал душные моменты, но они абсолютно нормальны для AAA игр. Все таки игра большая и сделать ее идеальной очень сложно.
    Графика: Игра выглядит потрясающе как и на ПК, так и на консолях. Текстуры в отличном разрешение, можно читать даже самые мелкие газеты, что дает живости игровому миру
    Мир: Сюжетные локации очень интересные, по всюду раскиданы разные секреты (чаше всего лут), каждую локацию хочется осматривать, но, признаюсь честно, после 6 часов начинаем немного надоедать. Открытый мир неинтересный и не нужен игре за это минус бал однозначно

    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.
