Art director Ryan Greene explained in an <i>IGN<\/i> interview that, although the game shares some thematic elements with <i>Fallout<\/i>\u2014such as its post-apocalyptic setting and dangerous robotic adversaries\u2014it differentiates itself through its unique approach to storytelling and gameplay.<\/p>\n<p><i>“Once you spend some time playing it, you realize this is something completely different,”<\/i> Greene said. <i>“Plus, one of our owners, Jason Kingsley, is a huge Fallout fan.”<\/i><\/p>\n<p> <\/p>\n<h3>Atomfall’s Unique Storytelling Approach<\/h3>\n<p> <\/p>\n<p>Unlike <i>Fallout<\/i>, <i>Atomfall<\/i> does not follow a single, overarching main quest. Instead, its narrative unfolds in a nonlinear and fragmented fashion, allowing players to explore multiple interconnected storylines at their own pace. A central mystery ties everything together, encouraging deep exploration and immersion. Moreover, decisions made in Campaign Mode influence how side quests develop, making every playthrough feel dynamic and unpredictable.<\/p>\n<p><b>Source:<\/b> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gamespot.com\/articles\/atomfall-isnt-british-fallout-but-its-own-thing-for-sure-developer-rebellion-says\/1100-6530128\/\">Gamespot<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It’s often compared to Fallout, but the creators of Atomfall insist their game stands on its own.
