    울트라 와이드 해상도는 중간에 진행이 안되는 구간이 있을 정도로 신경을 안썼음. 애니메이션이 뚝뚝 끊겨서 멀미 날 것 같음. 30분정도밖에 안했지만 소뽕이 너무 심함. 키보드 마우스 설정이 불편함.
    결론:하지 말라고 만든 게임

    Раздували что это погоподобный 3А проект, а получили игру еле дотягивающую до 2A
    c убогим лвлдизайном. В очередной раз русская студия обосралась, как и идеи совка.

    I can't recommend this game. Poor story, annoying and empty open world, Design is good but there is nothing else that can make you happy. Overpriced.

    I don't understand all the positive reviews. The story is very boring. And the graphic are much worse than in preview. I do not recommend the game.

    Первые минут 15 - лучшая часть игры.
    Обычный коридорный шутер. Советский союз тут постольку поскольку. Слишком много врагов, мало оригинального сеттинга, загадки раздражают и портят всю динамику. Мусор. Мне жаль потраченных денег.    Первые минут 15 - лучшая часть игры.

    Dull and boring, red corridor simulator. 1 score for optimization. I also want to note that the politicization of the game is sickening, the authors are hypocrites who promised to be without politics.

    The developers of Atomic Heart took BioShock 1, 2 and BioShock Infinite and transferred it to the USSR setting, bluntly copying all the mechanics of BioShock games. Atomic Heart also uses a lot of Russian songs, that were written in 90's after the USSR collapse.

    And a lot of people compare Atomic Heart with Wolfenstein: The New Order, Wolfenstein: The Old Blood, Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus, but Wolfenstein players play as a Polish Jew in the US army William Joseph Blaskowitz (BJ Blaskowitz), who fights against Nazis, not as a Third Reich soldier, but in Atomic Heart they play as KGB agent - it would be the same if they played as a Third Reich agent.
    And Atomic Heart shows the USSR in a beautiful light, while Wolfenstein: The New Order, Wolfenstein: The Old Blood, and Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus show the Third Reich as absolute evil.
    And Mundfish also leaks player data to the FSB.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The game is infused with propaganda from a time when millions of people were tortured and oppressed by racial hatred and tons of sexism. The game itself is a carbon copy of Bioshock. If you look at the game design as a whole, it is boring, poorly thought out, and meaningless. This game was not created for the purpose of being played. I don't know what goals they were pursuing, but I strongly advise against playing it.… Expand

    It is a cheap parody of Bioshock, but this thrash won't reach the real innovative game, it's just a very bad clone of it.

    Which is absolutely hilarious as Hogwarts Legacy is literally everything this game IS NOT.

    Writing:
    - This game's story is the definition of a placeholder. In fact, its just a bunch of MacGuffins instead to drive you from location to location.
    - Saying that the main "protagonist" is unlikable would be an understatement. Absolutely unrelatable, as he realizes what's happening several hours after the player does. The dumb lines he throws are all over the place (in this regard the game took over Forespoken BY FAR). It is quite noticeable the writers had very little idea what they wanted him to be, besides being 1) a some "KGB officer" (the Chekhov's gun never shot) 2) a "brutal" man (so they come up with a 11-years old boy in an adult body).
    - The "humor" in this game... Well, if you would laugh on somebody slipping on a banana skin, there is a chance you will appreciate some of it.

    Gameplay:
    - The "open world" (I would rather call it "open space") is absolutely empty and pointless. Clearly added only to tick the checkbox for "the modern audience".
    - After several hours in, fights and enemies become so repetitive and boring.

    Other
    - No FOV slider - this will make some players feel sick on regular monitors and is absolutely unplayable on ultra-wide.

    Summary
    You can clearly see that huge money were put into the game, but it's a shiny (and fairly well-polished) shell with nothing nearly pleasant inside. What was in advertisement stayed there. Would have never bough it even for 20 bucks and selling it for 60$.. it must be yet another cringy joke from the writers.

    I would advice everyone not to get hooked on the adds and trailers and just stay away from this piece of software.    … Expand

    Nothing special. Like many others are saying the combat feels very boring, the open world isn't really open, there's only like 6 enemy types in the whole game and it's very short for a full priced game.

    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.
