[h1]This time we jump in to let you see some of the true pearls of art that we didn't want to miss and felt obligated to include in the game.[/h1]

Art from the times of USSR is a very distinct form of art. Just by looking at it you feel in a certain particular way that is quite honestly difficult to describe. The range of colours and methods used to display different ideas and evocative feelings that you can find in the art pieces of this era is simply astonishing. Thus - we felt it's only natural to include some of them in the game, to give our audience a chance for some to relive the nostalgia connected to them and for other to get a grasp on a new, perhaps unseen before realm of art.

As you can see in the screenshots above - we tried to do so in a subtle yet attentive way. The art in the world of game tries to follow the reality very closely but we didn't want to simply throw it in the face of an exploring player. While performing your liquidation tasks you might find a moment to check your surrounding and notice something beautiful - please do pay a moment to behold those displays of skill. And be aware - those are closely recreated from the art that we have discovered to be in either Pripyat or Chernobyl NPP itself.

As always - we do tend to allow ourselves some creative liberties. In this case the original art pieces that we presented in two first screenshots weren't originally in the same room. The stained glass was indeed in the Chernobyl NPP itself, while the gorgeous painting originally was placed in the post office in Pripyat. However, while thinking about the right place for them to be, we allowed ourselves to think more about our players' experience than the historical accuracy.
[i]What are your thoughts about art from this particular period of time? Let us know in the comments![/i]
Kind regards,
