    it's a great game. it's a pity that it gets negative ratings just because she "supports the war." no it doesn't support that. questions?

    Great game: great setting, great jokes, interesting gameplay. After 11 hours in the game, I want to play more and more. It's funny to see so many negative reviews, although we know why :)

    A breath of fresh air in today's monotonous swamp. Great cheerful action, chic soundtrack from Mick Gordon and Soviet pop, worthy statement from the Russian developers

    He jugado 7 horas y me encanta. La ambientación, las batallas, las mejoras para el PJ y armas, trae frescura este titulo

    Отличная и очень красивая игра.
    Я вижу много смелых решений, много труда и стараний разработчиков.
    Хорошо вписанную музыку, интересных персонажей, неплохой юмор. Масштаб и наполнение уровней - отлично! Я не блукал и мне было интересно исследовать мир. Боёвка - отлично! Противники дают жару, требуют осмысленности в бою, грамотный менеджмент оружия и боеприпасов. Смело! Дерзко!

    З.Ы.: Жаль, что неприязнь к Советской стилистике мешает многим людям разглядеть в этой игре действительно качественный продукт.

    I downloaded Atomic Heart this morning and didn’t notice the day have passed. It’s the first time a game has pulled me in like this

    If I were to describe the game in one word, it would be "good".
    Dev version leaked a while ago had problems, most of which like combat balance, audio bugs, too little loot, interaction bugs and others were mostly fixed at release. Overall, great job with finishing touches, considering only a few months have passed.
    Graphics are good, 8-9/10, Mundfish really did their homework on this

    Dev version leaked a while ago had problems, most of which like combat balance, audio bugs, too little loot, interaction bugs and others were mostly fixed at release. Overall, great job with finishing touches, considering only a few months have passed.

    Graphics are good, 8-9/10, Mundfish really did their homework on this one. For the most part, the game looks amazing.

    Audio is great too, if we exclude the bugs (most of which got fixed anyway), I'd say it's a firm 8/10 for overall audio and 9/10 for sound design.
    Combat system has its problems, overall it's good and fun, but it takes a lot of time to adjust to it. Powers and upgrades are well-made, can't say anything bad about them. Problems are mostly noticed in guns and dodging (mostly guns). It's not critical, but still, 7/10 for guns, 9/10 for powers, and I guess 7-8/10 overall.

    The game is undoubtedly fun when it gets going, got lost in some locations a few times, but it's not much of an issue considering that they are very well-made. And here's for the next point.

    Design. Here I'll address something.
    This game stands on the vibes, vibes of idealized retro-futuristic Soviet Union.
    If there is any ideology in the game - it's anti-Soviet one, just like in every other game since the beginning of gaming as we know it. Bad party, lies, etc. This game has nothing close to propaganda, some flattery towards China is all I noticed, and that is most likely for Chinese players.
    But man, VIBES, vibes in this game are fantastic. Devs have managed to hit a nostalgic Soviet spot like no others did before.
    You can walk through locations and see the inspirations they took in, for example Buzludzha and VDNH. They nailed everything they could about design and environment.
    After all, that was the plan from the beginning. 10/10.

    I could go on and on with this game, but I'll stop here. I decently recommend it to anyone who is into this kind of games.
    My score is probably between 8 and 9/10, but I'll score 10/10 just to counter the zeros from people who for whatever reason believe that 15 years of all the Developer's hard labor and tremendous work their big and multinational team have putted into this game should be scored 0 because this game gives "wrong vibes" to them.

    Beautiful graphics, good music. Twins...
    Good storyline and good melee combat.
    Such a mixture of bioshock and Soviet punk.
    A lot of people underestimated the game due to "sponsoring the Russian Federation." That's why I bought the game twice.

    Всем привет! Давно такого не было. Классный шутер да ещё из России. Ребята проделали огромную работу. Сетинг не заезженный, музыка шедевр , геймплей приятный. В общем всё отлично , особенно то что в последнее время из игр ничего интересного сильно не выходило.Всем привет! Давно такого не было. Классный шутер да ещё из России.

    Lots of people crying just because it's a Russian game.

    Atomic Heart is one of the best games of the last years with graphics, music and dubbing of 10.

    Great gameplay. Was more expecting a straight forward shooter but it’s much more than this. Starting with amazing graphics to plot twists. Recommend

    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.
