THE GAME KEEPS BREAKING - ATOMIC (BROKEN) HEART - PROBABLY LAST GAMEPLAY
Naturally, Atomic Heart is drenched in the Soviet-era iconography you might anticipate from a nation hidden far behind the Iron Curtain in the middle of the 1950s, though admittedly, the lens through which you may view all this Soviet symbolism today in 2023 is a little different than it was at its announcement and initial reveal back in 2018. Of course, since I was raised on Bond films, Stripes, and Rocky IV while geographically remote and politically irrelevant in the southern hemisphere, my perspective on such an overtly Russian backdrop is bound to differ significantly from that of someone with roots in Eastern Europe. An alternate-history shooter in the vein of BioShock and the Wolfenstein series from MachineGames is Atomic Heart. It's a sort of retrofuturistic journey back to a fictitious past that has been corrupted by absurdly sophisticated technology; a setting where science has made the supernatural a reality and robots are now widely used. However, Atomic Heart is not the only shooter that freely borrows ideas from. There is also no denying the influence of Half-Life and Portal's puzzle-solving, as well as an attempt to include Arkane's popular first-person stealth style.
This lengthy, difficult, and fantastic-looking shooter has us bathing in the blood and gears of intricately designed adversaries, both biological and robotic, and killing them with an outstanding variety of combat options. It is an eye-catching blend of super-powered shooting and first-person puzzle solving. It's true that when it comes to melee fighting or its traditional fetch quests, it's not as clever as it thinks it is, and the tale doesn't quite land, but the voyage itself is breathtaking.
