About this game
Fallout Shelter puts you in control of a state-of-the-art underground Vault from Vault-Tec. Build the perfect Vault, keep your Dwellers happy, and protect them from the dangers of the unforgiving Wasteland. Create a brighter future… underground! Select from a variety of modern-day rooms to turn an excavation beneath 2,000 feet of bedrock into the very picture of Vault Life. Get to know your Dwellers and lead them to happiness. Find their ideal jobs and watch them flourish. Provide them with outfits, weapons, and training to improve their abilities.
A well-run Vault requires a variety of Dwellers with a mix of skills. Build a Radio Room to attract new Dwellers. Or, take an active role in their personal lives; play matchmaker and watch the sparks fly! Send Dwellers above ground to explore the blasted surface left behind and seek adventure, handy survival loot, or unspeakable death. Find new armor and weapons, gain experience, and earn Caps. But don’t let them die! From time to time, idyllic Vault life may be disrupted by the dangers of post-nuclear life. Prepare your Dwellers to protect against threats from the outside…and within. Vault-Tec has provided the tools, but the rest is up to you. What are you waiting for? Get started building your Vault today for FREE.

Reviews
Best base-building game on mobile, hands down. The Fallout theme is perfectly captured. Lunchboxes are tempting but not essential to progress, which is fair. Runs smoothly on my device.
It's fun for a while, but gets a bit grindy later on. Waiting for resources or dwellers to return from the wasteland takes ages. Needs more engaging late-game content maybe?
Great concept and execution. I enjoy the S.P.E.C.I.A.L. system and matching dwellers to jobs. However, incidents like fires and radroach attacks can be overwhelming early on. Good game overall.
Still playing after years! The developers keep adding new quests and content which keeps it fresh. Love collecting legendary dwellers and pets. A classic mobile strategy game.
Fun to build and manage, but sometimes the dwellers' AI pathing is a bit weird, especially during incidents. Crafting takes a long time too. Still, a very solid and enjoyable experience.

Incredibly addictive! Love managing my Dwellers and expanding the Vault. Sending teams to the Wasteland is always exciting. Sometimes resource balancing is tough, but that's the challenge!
