Unfortunately, the trap of falling into a poor rhythm of accepting failure and pushing on to the next save is a glum inevitability. It is the back-and-forth trade-off of such living that makes 60 Seconds! Reatomized a fairly balanced glimpse into life underground. Prepping for the day soon falls into a strategy of deciding which family can lay waste to the wasteland and which three are going to hoover up resources. Another issue to be dealt with and another family member to be disposed of.įamily is very much the core of 60 Seconds! Reatomized, which nails its setting with great graphics that feel suitable for the claustrophobia of a bunker and the strong blur of joviality and nightmarish encounters. Every expedition runs a risk, random events dealt with poorly also crop up. If a member of the family isn’t back after so long, consider them dead. Tiny changes can make the difference between life or death, making this game both an unfair agony and a tense bit of fun. Sending out sick men to see if they can scrape together some soup and a gas mask in a rundown theatre sounds adventurous, but it is the torture of waiting, time passing as cold feet set in. That tone and style is a natural and solid element to 60 Seconds! Reatomized, a game that relies just as much on the smart simplicity of its resource management as it does on the era it derides for their over preparedness. As much a game of chance as it is a series of tactical risks and slow-burning developments, 60 Seconds! Reatomized soon lends itself to the nuclear paranoia of the final bomb dropping down on civilization. Survival, naturally, is far tougher than any family from the 1950s would suspect. A skill and resource management game where the chance of procuring more tinned goods and fresh water is a slim dream running through an Atomic Era family of four. Throw the relatives and some soup down into a shelter and hope for the best. It is good of Robot Gentlemen, the studio behind 60 Seconds! Reatomized to provide a drill of how the nuclear armageddon may go down. Preparing for the apocalypse is seeming like more of a necessity than a choice these days.
