Welcome to PlayingHardball

Please notice that Trudograd is a sequel and contains many references to ATOM RPG. It is therefore recommended to watch my Let's Play ATOM RPG first. You can find the complete ATOM RPG 1.1 playlist here:    • PlayingHardball: Let's Play ATOM RPG ...  

ATOM RPG, THE POST-APOCALYPTIC INDIE GAME FOR PC/PS4/Xbox-Series
Trudograd, just like ATOM RPG 1.1 is a post-apocalyptic role-playing game featuring turn-based combat. Players have to make tough choices and survive in an unforgiving world full of human survivors and (mutated) wildlife. The world of ATOM RPG is set in the former USSR after a devastating nuclear war. It features a unique satirical (oftentimes rough) humor and great storytelling.
The game is inspired by classic role-playing games (CRPGs) like Fallout 1 and Fallout 2, the Wasteland series and Baldur's Gate.

If you are interested to take a look at the Wasteland games you can find my introduction and review for Wasteland 2 here:    • Wasteland 2 Director's Cut - Introduc...   and the playlist for my Let's Play for Wasteland 3 here:    • PlayingHardball: Let's Play Wasteland...

The video game ATOM RPG was developed and published by AtomTeam, an indie studio with a team (mostly) from several Eastern European countries, in 2018.

The sequel ATOM RPG: Trudograd continues the story of ATOM RPG. It was released by AtomTeam in 2021. This game features some stronger SciFi elements.

TRUDOGRAD/ATOM RPG, THE BACKGROUND AND GOAL
Nuclear war between the Soviet Union (USSR) and the Western Powers has ravaged the planet. In the post-nuclear apocalypse the player controls "the cadet", now after the storyline of ATOM RPG a Major of the secret Soviet ATOM organization. The Major is sent out to the famed and infamous city Trudograd, the biggest remaining settlement in the former Soviet Union after the war. The Major is on a vital mission following up on the information provided by the Mycelium society during the events in ATOM RPG.

The city Trudograd has been mentioned multiple times in the first game. Caravaneers' gossip, quests and NPCs referred to this place as a source of technology, but not of hope for ordinary people. Players were not able to travel there. The game takes place during a winter period, consequences of the climate change since atomic bombs fell.

NEW HERE?
My callsign is Hardball, PlayingHardball. I have always loved gaming. I am passionate about games as forms of art and ways of exploring narratives in interactive ways. I have been playing video games nearly all my life, on the internet for a few years now. I enjoy a great variety of games but generally lean towards games with a unique and engaging story (like Mass Effect, Disco Elysium, The Witcher, etc), strategy/tactical games (like XCOM, Panzercorps, Total War etc), and RPGs (like Baldur's Gate, Pathfinder etc). Of course, I am always looking for great indie games too!
