Another entry in the long running “-fall” series of games.
(For real, it’s weird how so many game have “fall” in their name if you start paying attention to it. Everything be fallin’.)

Kind of like -ly and -hub in domain names, or -kit in software libraries? :)
-fall seems to have taken over from -craft
Well, when you think about it, it makes sense. It's a versatile and cool sounding word format or whatever you call it. You can use it for literal stuff, such as Titanfall, where robots fall from the sky or comets or whatever. But also in a collapse kind of thing, like here. And fallen civilizations and apocalypses are a popular themes, so..
A few years ago I think I'd agree, but I feel like at this point it's a super lazy naming scheme, to be honest.
Don't have a good name? Just slap "-fall" on the end of some noun.
Risefall
Guysfall
Redfall was trash, checks out
Nounfall
Not to be confused with the german -fall game No Unfall.
Not to be confused with the Soulsborne edutainment game Nounfall.
Game looks cool. I just hate promo videos where they have someone from the company explain it. Just give me a trailer or straight video, I don't need someone selling it to me in the most corporate HR way possible.
Looks like a British Fallout. Cool!
It’s like stalker and fallout had a British baby. I’m intrigued
