IDK, reading this really solidified the idea that it actually is just Fallout: Britain. Gameplay is incredibly similar, and there appear to be a lot of instances of "Fallout has X, so this game has X too." Kinda like "I will copy your homework but change it a bit so its not too suspicious."

Also, a spelling mistake in literally the first sentence is not a good look for whoever the Editor is.

I don't disagree, but my problem is the ways in which it clearly isn't Fallout. Specifically, FO has some deep lore that justifies the existence, mannerisms and internecine postures of the various factions, but here it's apparently just... Waves of nutters take the first opportunity to move into a radiological quarantine zone and set up shop as conveniently thematic gangs for... reasons.

"Just think about it lads! Not only can we live in a place that'll kill us on the cellular level, but we can wear theatrical facepaint - don't ask where we're getting a steady supply of that - like a 24/7 Kiss revival concert! It'll be awesome! There'll be matching top hats for everyone. Millinery is a real growth industry in here. Mind the mercury."

But other than that, it looks fun enough.

Edit: Spelling.
