You wouldn't immediately think of a quaint British countryside town when you say first-person survival horror. You'd think rolling hills, occassional sunshine and a good ol' British pub wouldn't quite fit beyond the comedy of Shaun of the Dead. And yet, it's also perfect.
The British charm of this countryside setting works so well for Atomfall's unique approach to the survival horror genre. It's the juxtaposition of it all, but also the fact that Atomfall is based on real-world events. Of course, it's an alternate history, because as far as I know, rural Northern England doesn't have giant flamethrower robots.
