Evaluation
Far Road Games officially announced on February 21, 2024 that Atomic Society would be removed from sale at the end of that week, and the studio would be shutting down. The post confirmed that the game reached its content-complete 1.0 release on August 9, 2021 after roughly seven years of development, and that following launch the team had "nothing more to add to the game." The game is now confirmed delisted — the store data shows no purchase options are available, consistent with the developer's announcement. Existing owners can still access the game in their Steam libraries, but it can no longer be purchased by new players. The studio closure announcement is the final word from the developer: the game is finished, the studio is done, and no further content or updates are planned.

About this game
Post Apocalyptic Town Building Where You Set The Laws
Can you rebuild a town that can keep hundreds of people alive after a nuclear war?
What kind of laws would you set - and how would you enforce them?
- SURVIVE. Starting out with nothing, slowly build a large settlement that can keep hundreds of people fed, watered, healthy, housed and entertained... if you can.
- CRIME. Citizens commit crimes and enact a wide range of social issues as you play.
- JUDGE. Act as judge over a range of real-world social issues including abortion, murder, vegetarianism, drug use, cannibalism, and several other controversial topics.
- PUNISH. Choose execute, long or short prison sentences, toleration and even encouragement for all issues that happen in your town.
- CONTROL. Create and control your own leader character. Use this person to help build your town, or explore the world for salvage and upgrades. Walk around your town up close.
- BELIEVE. Pick what you believe and share that with others through violence, exile or education.
- EXPAND. Convert ruined houses and offices into useful buildings or loot them for supplies. Research new buildings and trade excess goods.
