I don't regret my time with Atomfall. It knows what it wants to be, with a reasonable scope and solid shooting mechanics. But issues with the skill system, its underbaked stealth, and an unengaging narrative are asterisks too large to ignore. Like the world it depicts, something exciting and unique lies at Atomfall's core. I just wish it wasn't walled off by my laundry list of frustrations.

Critic reviews
- 9.0As the secrets of the zone are unraveled, so too does Atomfall reveal a novel, engaging adventure inside a compelling world.
- 7.0Excellent story design stunted by clunky gameplay.
- 6.0While Atomfall should be praised for its accessibility settings and innovative “Lead” system, a plethora of design shortcomings frustrate in this survival-RPG hybrid.
- 7.0Atomfall is an interesting game. It might not be wholly unique in anything it does, but it combines its core ideas in a way that feels fresh.
- 7.0Fallout 5 may be a long time coming but the British-made Atomfall offers an interesting alternative, that has plenty of unique ideas of its own.
