Throughout Atomfall there are a handful of recipes that you can use to make your time in the quarantine zone a little easier. These crafting recipes are small consumables, such as bandages or shivs, that can be used in sticky situations. By finding the crafting recipes throughout the Atomfall map, you can create these helpful items straight from your inventory, making it a much more cost-efficient way of obtaining them than trading with merchants.
