The monetization practices of Cristian Manolachi/Atomic Fabrik have been criticized for exploiting others' work through unethical asset flips on Steam, characterized by low-quality games often presented in broken English or Russian. These games are quickly released post-launch and are accompanied by fake reviews, indicating a focus on profit over quality.
“Cristian Manolachi/Atomic Fabrik has shown a repeat pattern of unethically dumping other people's work onto Steam as a cheap, nasty cash grab.”
“They're all written in either Russian or broken English, appear almost immediately after the game launched on Steam, all have a direct Steam purchase of the game, and the accounts are used consistently to write fake reviews for asset flips and other cash grabs/scams.”
