What is Atomfall?

Set in Northern England five years after the Windscale nuclear disaster, this single-player, first-person survival-action game takes place across an open quarantine zone. You explore the countryside, investigate its mystery, scavenge supplies, craft and barter for gear, talk with residents, and fight with firearms or melee weapons.

For you if...

+you enjoy scarce-resource combat mixing firearms and melee
+you prefer investigation driven by exploration and conversation
+you want a solo story where choices have consequences

Not for you if...

−you expect a deep character-building RPG or vast sandbox
−you want clear quest markers and closely guided objectives
−you prefer cleared areas to remain free of enemies
