Atlas Fallen echoes other mid-00s slashers with fun melee combat and cool ideas, trapped in a run-of-the-mill open world. Our review:

If looking back at Atlas Fallen feels slightly foggy, that's at least partly due to its well-worn post-apocalyptic fantasy backdrop, in which an oppressive God has divided the human population between the mistreated"Unnamed" and everyone else who's blindly religious. Playing as a poor Unnamed, you soon stumble upon a chatty gauntlet that holds both immense magical power a long-forgotten Avatar-looking God whose buttcheeks are always on show.

While the excuse to beat up baddies is sub-par, the actual monster-slashing-thrashing-lashing is the game's highlight, both for its stylish visual splendour and for its frantic intensity. The two-in-one gauntlet lets you talk to a God and turn sand into devastating shape-shifting melee weapons , which obviously looks cool, although pulling off the magical feat is fun, too.

Even after I memorised an attack pattern and could practically react to it with my eyes closed, no two encounters really felt the same. By the time Atlas Fallen's midpoint strikes there'll be so many projectiles flying across the battlefield, little sand hounds leaping toward you from every angle, and a massive wrinkly worm digging through the ground at your feet.
