A large vault in Fallout Shelter. |
Once you figure out the basics and get your residents assigned you can choose to send someone out to explore the wasteland. Residents are needed to explore the wasteland because they can bring back valuable items like outfits and weapons. Outfits provide stat boosts for your residents and weapons are needed to help them fight off the occasional raider attack. Your intrepid explorer can stay in the wasteland for any duration of time and will generally bring back better loot the longer they are out. They can be equipped with Stimpacks and RadAway to help them survive while they are beyond the walls of the vault.
As your population of vault dwellers grows--through babies born by assigning male and female dwellers with higher charisma to the same living quarter or new dwellers showing up at your vault--you unlock more rooms to help your vault function. A medbay allows your dwellers with higher intelligence to create Stimpacks, a storage room provides a place to keep your outfits and weapons, and eventually you can unlock rooms that will allow you to raise specific skills of your dwellers.
I'm enjoying this quirky little mobile game. My vault has been attacked by raiders twice and things looked bleak for awhile, but now things are going along pretty smoothly. My iPad 2 seems to struggle with this game and I've had several lockups, so those of you with older devices might have some difficulties. For a free game it's not too bad--there haven't been a bunch of advertisements or entreaties to make micro transactions. It's got that signature Fallout feeling that makes you want to explore the wasteland.
