    Sinceramente es un juego con una ambientación brutal unos gráficos muy buenos, un protagonista carismático que sus diálogos me hacen reír bastante, una banda sonora excelente y unos enemigos repetidos pero originales. Lo malo es la curva de dificultad pero por lo demás no hay cosas muy malas

    So atmospheric setting! Guys, this is a huge layer of human history and culture, I think, very interesting to learn and horizon. The shooting is a bit boring, but I love the locations, the dialogues and the immersion in the world. Dear Mundfish, please keep creating!

    Gran juego, infravalorado por ser ruso y estar en Gamepass.
    Bonita ambientación, buenos gráficos, buena dificultad y gran banda sonora.

    I've been waiting for this game for 2 years and finally got it. As I see it, most people put 10, but the game is not perfect, you have already heard bugs and other gameplay shortcomings, only small complaints, for example, the choice of difficulty level (If you have played other dynamic shooters and Dying Light on max difficulty, the game will seem easy), predictability turns, except forI've been waiting for this game for 2 years and finally got it.

And the most important minus for me is a boring open world, yes there are polygons that are interesting to clear, but I would like more, secondary tasks from the same baba Zina, and non-story locations are of the same type.
    Anyway, this is a quality project, it was released quite ready and the plot, dialogues, humor, characters are all at the highest level. Hopefully more open world add-ons will be added in future DLC and patches.    … 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

    Atomic Heart has the potential to be a captivating game, with its intriguing setting of a retro-futuristic Soviet Union and impressive graphics and sound design that immerse the player in this world.

The game's combat system has also been praised as excellent, providing players with an enjoyable and challenging experience. However, the game's narrative falls short of its potential, with a lack of depth in the characters and storytelling that make it difficult for players to fully engage with the plot. Despite this, the game's strong gameplay mechanics help balance out the weaker aspects of the narrative. No entanto, it's important to note that in some aspects, Atomic Heart can be considered superior to Bioshock. The gameplay, graphics, and enemies, for example, are strong points of the game. Although there is a lack of variety in the types of enemies, the destructive robots with torn-off parts and the organic enemies with detailed gore provide an interesting combat experience. Additionally, the enemy moveset is impressive in its variety, making the bosses of the game worthy of FromSoftware games. In summary, Atomic Heart has its strengths and weaknesses, but overall, it is an interesting game that deserves to be explored by players seeking a challenging combat experience and a unique setting. With its impressive graphics and variety of enemies, it is possible that Atomic Heart will carve out a prominent place among games in its genre. Some poor ratings for Atomic Heart can be attributed to a boycott movement, supposedly motivated by the Russian government's involvement with the game's developer company. Furthermore, many Bioshock fans are unhappy with the game because of its lack of "wokeness" and considering the plot twist to be inferior to that of the Bioshock franchise. However, these fans are ignoring Atomic Heart's superior gameplay.… Expand

    An amazing game, in the atmosphere of the USSR. A game that dared to show that people could also live well in a socialist society (which propaganda still demonizes). Without widespread denunciations and executions "for a joke."
    Sometimes the game presents a positive kringe.
    Thanks to the developers and the publisher!
    Glory to the working peoples of the whole planet!

    Cult dystopian games come out every 10 years.
    BioShock Infinite came out 10 years ago.
    10 years later, in 2023, the Soviet RoboShock - Atomic Heart is released, which I pre-ordered and have been looking forward to since the very first trailer. All expectations are justified.

    Хорошая игра среднего сегмента с выдающимся и уникальным дизайном, шикарным саундтреком. Боевка хорошая, но баланс иногда страдает, и видно что игру затачивали под клавомышь, на геймпаде некоторые враги и боссы слишком шустрые. Из минусов отметил бы пустой открытый мир и затянутую первую половину игры в плане сюжета, но во второй половине все гораздо интереснее.Хорошая игра среднего сегмента с выдающимся и уникальным дизайном, шикарным саундтреком.

    A well-optimized game, which is a rarity these days. The story is great, the graphics are great. 10 points because it's a good release, unlike other recent AAA games. And because of the ballerinas. Finally, someone was not afraid to share beautiful female characters.

    По вопросам сюжета я даже расписывать не буду, ибо и сам ничего не понял. Зато могу расписать по техническим аспектам

    Боссы. Блять, их надо переработать. Миша, всё хуйня, давай по новой. Они слишком похожи на обычных мобов. У них нет слабых точек, я не могу отстрелить роботу конечности или повредить хоть как-то его механизм работы. Это тупо долбёжка, пока у босса хп не кончится.

    Боссы.
    Блять, их надо переработать. Миша, всё хуйня, давай по новой. Они слишком похожи на обычных мобов. У них нет слабых точек, я не могу отстрелить роботу конечности или повредить хоть как-то его механизм работы. Это тупо долбёжка, пока у босса хп не кончится. Да, круто, босс имеет уникальные атаки. Но, мои ж вы зайки, этого не достаточно. Босс-файт предполагает разработку какой-либо уникальной тактики. В механике первого босса было предусмотрено разбивание статуй на арене, зачёт чего можно было пройти Ежиху без единого выстрела и получить ачивку. Круто, но на этом креатива у разрабов закончился, потрму что остальные боссы одолевались банальным нанесением урона просто по корпусу робота. Опять же, беру в пример Хорайзн - там можно было роботу выстрелить в колено, око, пасть, нанести критический урон и как-то сломать робота. Это интереснее, чем 5 минут играть в стимулятор уворотов, непрерывно стреляя из калаша

    Повествование
    Игра очень долго раскачивалась после быстрой завязки. Во время этой самой раскачки, информацию нам подавали через диалог главного героя с перчаткой. Мне было и так трудно вникнуть в новую неизученную вселенную и понять все её термины и законы, так меня ещё буквально во время стрельбы нагружают кучей информацией про предприятие и ебанутые планы местных властей и учёных. Они прям слишком много информации передавали посредством разговора гг с перчаткой. Часть этой инфы можно было бы показать в кат сценах, задействовать других персонажей, чтобы игрок буквально не сошёл с ума. Большую часть времени мы проводим на едине с перчаткой и монстрами. Вообще, остальные не игровые, но важные для сюжета персонажи, почти не используются в игре. Только лишь в завязке и развязке. Середина получилась очень одинокая с точки зрения сюжетных моментов

    Зато могу похвалить сеттинг, геймдизайн и оптимизацию. На релизе игра выстояла достойно.    … 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]

    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.
