Best Mobile Game 10/10. I have played MANY MANY mobile games, I’ve been a whale in most of them spending thousands and thousands of dollars. The most I spent on a game was $14,000+ and I quit every single one of those games. However, the one game I keep coming back to is this game. This is NOT a money grabbing game. The thing I love the most about this game is that you can have fun all you want and play with ALL the contents in this game without spending a single dime and it won’t take you years or months to get to it. I have not found another mobile game like Fallout Shelter... I did spend around $100 on this game because I love spending money on mobile games.. but that’s the thing. I only spent $100 and got SO MUCH for it. This game is so generous and the sales are amazing. 40 boxes for only $10 when it’s on sale!!!! That’s amazing!!! In every mobile game I’ve played other than this one, it’s $10 for 10 rolls and most of the time you don’t even get the best rarity in all ten rolls. But in this game, it’s a 50/50 chance or better! I absolutely love this game and the devs. Thank you so much for making such a wonderful game and please please please keep updating it. You guys are doing amazing and I really hope you are getting the support you deserve and even more.

Greatest Mobile Game, Also.... I’ve been playing this game for years, and I mean it. I’ve tried many different set-ups and came up with lots of ideas, I’ve also noticed that it hasn’t been updated much in content. Maybe making small updates, like adding a higher max level to the vault’s dwellers? Or more levels to the vault itself? Those are just some ideas. Though I understand it may be asking a lot, and the developers may not read this, but what if they added trading? Nothing too into it, but that you could set up trading routes with your other Vaults or even groups like the Brotherhood and specific Raiders. All containing varying degrees of trades respective to their groups. Maybe even another Vault to claim? Or an outpost of sorts to keep up with more, or unique, building? Although, I know the idea of another semi-Vault is a big stretch, the idea of trading and an outpost would open up a continuous opportunity in guise of lack of new missions. I know I’d be interested every time I got a trader from a specific group that I allied with. Or got an update on the outpost every week for how many caps it’s raked in. Overall though, while I don’t believe there’ll a content update, I do think regardless this game is still good. Though something that’ll be continuous, like what I mentioned, would potentially make up for the lack of new content. However, I know the game in all is great and I highly recommend it to anyone who hasn’t tried it.

A great game but need some little improvements. My shelter is already maxed in rooms and has 200 dwellers but I want to propose some improvments. As I said I have 200 dwellers but time to time I get dwellers from the lunchboxes. I cant get them to leave and I dont want to kick any of my dwellers because all of them are high levels already. I also propose a fireteam mechanic. When there is an incident: for example, deathclaws. I dont want to assign my dwellers one by one into a room, there should be atleast 3 fireteam options where we can group 2-6 dwellers and we can just select the whole group to a certain room. Another one is the dwellers on the wasteland, we should be able to command them to use stimpaks and rad-aways even if they are not in those special areas like the okd cabin or nuka cola factory. Lastly selling or recycling. I have alot of junks that needs to be sold or recycled, but the only option is to do it one by one or just sell or recycle all of it. We should be able to input how many we want to sell or recycle to prevent that exhausting tapping by selling it one at a time just because you want to clear space but dont exactly want to lose all of it. That would be all. I would appreciate it if th developers would atleast read this. Thankyou.

I Love This Game, But... I’ve been playing this game for about half a year, and I adore it. It’s something that I keep coming back to when I have nothing better to do, and the Quests are great. I have a few suggestions for it: First, could we get some kind of Online mode? A few of my friends play this game, and it’d be great to be able to send food and water when they’re running low, as well as weapons or armor, or maybe even caps. Plus, you could add Quests where several Vaults send dwellers to get a lot of loot. It’d be a great addition to the game. Another thing I’d love, and I mean LOVE, would be some New Vegas items added to the game. Most of my favorite characters and items come from it, and it would add a ton of new content. You could have Quests going to Vault 22, add some of my favorites like Arcade Gannon and Ulysses as Legendary Dwellers, and even bring in some new Room Themes. Finally, and this is the one I want most, PLEASE add a layout editor. I’ve got a bit over a hundred Dwellers, and I want to move a few rooms around, but it costs THOUSANDS of caps to move the elevators and rooms, and it takes forever to move all the Dwellers around to get to the new place. We need a layout mode to fix these little issues that turn into massive problems. Anyway, thanks for listening to my thoughts, bye

Great Game but Here are Some Suggestions. This is a fantastic game! I just recently got into it again, after I deleted it a while ago. It would not be an understatement to say that I’m addicted to playing! It’s that fun! But there are some improvements, more like suggestions, that I would love to see implemented in the future. For one, I think the dweller max should be higher than 200. My vault is rapidly growing and I would love to keep it that way; relentless. That said, another thing that would be cool is more building room, both down and wide. Although tedious, it would create space for 200+ dwellers (*wink wink*). Summing up my first two points, just add more space. Thirdly, I think there should be a multiplayer aspect of the game. Right now, my friends and I are totally into this game. We are each growing our vaults at a fast rate. I think that somehow fallout shelter should implement some online or multiplayer thing, like vault wars or something. Just something to connect us to the other fans of the game. That’s it, if you read this far I would TOTALLY RECOMMEND!

A good game but can use some variation. I have played the game back in 2017 and have seen this game progress in development. It is a pretty decent management game that requires some future planning and understanding of how to manage people. It has added some exploration to it along with a good amount of quests. The game throws some challenges at you with random events happening such as raiders, fires or creature invasions to keep you on your toes. While the game itself is good and the concept is fun, I believe the game needs some variation in the designs for the rooms. Each room looks the same and seeing the same design for every room can get a bit stale. The room may change designs as you add more room tiles to each room and as you upgrade them but they all end up the same when you max them out. Some randomization in how they look can add some flavor into the game graphical wise just like how the dwellers all have different models and customizations for their clothing through outfits. Personally I also think the food room shouldn’t be a restaurant or diner since it makes no sense how they would generate food from just having a diner. Farms or greenhouses to me would make more sense. Otherwise in general this is a pretty good game and I look forward to seeing what more is in store for this game!

Favorite game! Except when moving a dweller. I love this game. It’s a great time waster. Very fun to build your own vault layout and build your dweller special levels with different jobs. I enjoy it tremendously. However every time I go to move a dweller to another station whether for different work or a raider attack, I run into a glitch. The dwellers little silhouette will disappear and the dweller won’t move or the silhouette will get huge and go to the right of the screen causing me to scramble to find another dweller to double tap so the huge silhouette disappears. Then I’ll go back to the original dweller to try again but have to go through the same process again because of the silhouette. I thought it would make things easier if we could just double tap the dweller to highlight them then double tap the station we want them to move to, might be an easier way to move them? But still, this game is great. It’s the first game I start my days with and it’s the one I end my day with. I truly enjoy fallout on my phone and my Xbox. You guys still did a great job with it. Thank you!

Very quality but needs improvement. This game is amazing! Me and my friend are in a competition right now for the game. I play the game all of the time and I may be addicted. The game does need some improvement in a few fields though. First of all, I hate the fact that you never ding legendary weapons in the wild. Exploring is one of the most important parts of the game but one of the most dangerous and unpredictable. If I have my dweller out for 3 days, I expect him to pick up other things then legendary junk. My idea is that you can find legendary weapons and cloths out in the wild but also when you pick up an item you don’t like, you can tell your guy to drop that item. You can do this by looking at the hotbar and taping the item he should drop and having it say do you really want to drop this item. This makes it so you can have them out longer and not bring home useless crap. And the deathclaw raids are too much. Make them more rare so we don’t end up suffering. Otherwise this game is amazing, that’s only two things. I 100% recommend this app. Thank you for reading. Please list as helpful so it can get noticed and these problems can get fixed!!

MY FAVORITE GAME OF ALL TIME!!!. Let me just tell you this, this game has everything it needs to be the best. You have to build production systems like, water treatment plants, diners, and obviously a power generator. If you build more of the same thing the production goal drops. You have to put dwellers inside them to work, and they level up which make them better and you collect the money. Every once and a while a mysterious man appears and if you tap on him he gives you pretty much my lifetime of money. You can build living quarters and put men and women in them. After about five minutes the woman is pregnant and she still can do her job. Sometimes there will be disasters and you have to solve them. There can be raiders, fire, radroaches, or deathclaws. This game is packed with lots of fun. I recommend it!!! Note: You cannot move rooms, you have to destroy them 😢 Other note: Radiation spreads and is killing all my dwellers like flys, I can't do much of anything in this game anymore then just staring at extremely depressed dwellers that are dying by the second, This game was fun at first, but... now it's making me depressed like my dwellers.

Major Annoyance. The game is a good time crunch; not incredibly involved, not incredibly deep, but a good place to tinker around trying to make every detail perfect. I only have one major annoyance that leads me to turn off the game immediately... I hate bottle and happy. I need a way to throttle them off; they come at the worst times. You just successfully rushed a group to bring up their happiness? Oh wait, whats this?! Nope, no you didn’t... Bottle and Cappy have come to ruin your work, guess you will have to wait three annoying minutes for them to go away. Make them turn off-able PLEASE, we are being punished for playing your game and saving your mascot dudes. Also; the chances are never correct. You have like a 14% chance to have an incident, but you still have an incident. So you wait till next log in, back to 14%, guess what, another incident. I could understand failing 1/3 - 1/2 of the time if I was rushing with a 30-50% incident rate, but I only rush with like a 10-14% incident rate and they fail all the dang time, often several times in a row for one room, making me bring the whole room down to 75% happiness when I wS just trying to top of one of the dwellers by 5%. I don’t think they are correct at all on failure rates, or there is another factor that I have not considered. I have tried making sure they only have a short time left, that each dweller has 7+ on all stats, etc... but none of it works, fail very consistently when rushing.

A good abandoned mess…. I’ve been playing this game for years, and restarted it plenty of times. It cures my boredom’s and sparks my mind to wonder in a creative way of thought like “what are my dwellers like?” Or “What food are they serving at the cafè today?” I find myself playing it CONSTANTLY and it’s also perfect for when you need to relax and sit down for a minute. But…I noticed something is lacking. There hasn’t been any MAJOR updates, at least that I know of, for a good while now. Bethesda abandoned us worse than they did with Fallout: 76 (I take that I still enjoy’d heavily apon release and still do😅) and it’s just…weird. I get they’re working on other projects and this game 8 years old but it still has a lot of fans. I just think we need content, like we aren’t getting getting Fallout Shelter: Online (atleast not in the U.S) soooo maybe take that game and add the online features here? Or release the whole game here? I get it’s a bit to ask but I’m not the only one who thinks this, half of these reviews are the same opinion as mine. All in all it’s a game with potential that the devs ignore. May I wish YOU (whoever’s reading this) a good day/night, and enjoy what we have now. It might be what all we get…

Good game; low intelligence. This is a really good game. Maybe one of the best ‘pay to play’ games around — because you’re not really hindered if you don’t purchase advancements. One thing I hate, however, is the unintelligent movement of the vault dwellers. If, for example, you have two training rooms and one dweller maxes out in one of the rooms, moving him to the other room forces one of the dwellers to trade places with the newcomer. But you would think that it would swap with a dweller that could USE the training in the new room. Instead, it usually chooses someone who might already be maxed out in that room — meaning after the swap you’re right back in the same situation as when you began... with a maxed out dweller that needs to be moved to a different training room. So to work around this endless loop, you have to first choose someone from the second room and manually remove them so that the dweller who is maxed out in the first room can go to the new training room. You can then manually move the previous guy into the first room since it now has an available slot. If they would just fix that one AI issue and allow the auto-swap to be useful for once, it would make the game much more enjoyable.

Hard challenges no reward. I get so excited when i finally have more than one lunchbox challenges to complete, i just collected 14 rare outfits and 14 rare weapons at the same time, i was supposed to receive two separate lunchboxes , but no after taking a week to complete these i only received one lunchbox and it contained my second repeat vault dweller and my 6th ghost costume. Its an even bigger joke when the one time i bought any lunchboxes on sale they only contained resources and nothing to write home about, i have also completed quests that should have rewarded me A lunchbox and i am not receiving them at the end of some quest. Too bad the Modders that are responsible for making your other games playable cannot fix this one for you. Instead of sitting in an office doing nothing but making empty promises and actually put time into developing your games people would actually respect Bethesda but this company will always remain a greedy joke like every other failing gaming company. One game a decade and a lazy mobile game will not keep your players coming back your will be left in the past and forgotten about the TV show will probably just be a complete slap to Obsidians lore just sellout already.

Still a little buggy. Over the past few days, after watching an ad, it doesn’t close or let you exit without crashing the game. After restarting, the button to watch an ad and gain a bonus is still usable. No bonus is paid. There are still bugs with dwellers dying while exploring when they use a Radaway, and it kills them instead of removing radiation. A dweller shouldn’t die while exploring while they still have Radaways AND Stimpacks. They should also use Radaways a little sooner, maybe around 40% radiation. They also return to the vault with increased radiation levels, higher than the level they had when they started back to the vault. The tooltip says they do not gain levels while returning. In some cases, after collecting loot from a returned dweller, their health immediately drops to zero and their portrait switches to “dead”. I can immediately spam a Stimpack to keep them from actually dying, but this shouldn’t happen at all. The 11 Perception bug still exists, where a dweller with 10 P has a certain pulse rate on the crit animation while on a mission, and 12+ is slower, as expected, but 11 is as fast as having 1 P.

Fun game, but…. I’ve been playing this game off an on for years, and really enjoy it. They’ve made some good updates to the game that make it even more enjoyable and give you more to do. However, there is one major issue that has existed for a very long time, and that is the incident rate when rushing a room. It will give you a percentage chance of an incident happening if you were to rush the room. If that percentage is 30% or higher, you are basically guaranteed to have an incident, every single time. It seems to be about 50/50 when the incident percentage is around 25%, and anything under 20% is usually pretty safe. The ONLY time I’ve had a rush succeed when the chance of incident was over 35% was during the tutorial when it makes you do a rush and it’s always successful. To make matters worse, failing a rush increases the chance of incident, which makes it to where I never want to even attempt to rush a room. I did an experiment once with a room that was at 27%. The rush failed, of course, so I tried again, and again, and again. Each one failed and I stopped when it approached 50%. I either have extremely bad luck in this game, or that incident calculation is incorrect. Now, the only time I rush a room is if the option to watch an ad to guarantee the rush is up, but often that will be disabled and counting down into negative seconds, so I mostly just ignore the rush feature unless I need to do it for an objective.

Best game ever. So this game you should make another one of it but like a more upgraded version of it like more realistic and you should make him the main guy actually able to walk around to see what’s going on and you should put it in first person. Mode and let the vault guy go out and explore but then it’s real list of legends realistic so that he can find more dyes to help him make his vault bigger and you should also make sure when he comes back. He should have to be able to let the man say go in and then go say I’m gonna go back you keep this place running again or just let him have the option to come back in and check on it and then go back and find more people to get his ball bigger, so yeah that’s what I think. I think it should be called staying down here for 50 years or fall out shelter for or one or two but yes I do love this series. You should keep it going and I’m gonna give you a five star so keep it going, it’s the best game ever so that’s all I think what you should do but please send her my request as a as a notice like what you should do so yes that’s all I think in the Bible that the mother is it the next song no show you show me that add this little smiley face thing has to say you’re people are getting a Saadi satyr happy and you know oh so bye have a good day please consider doing this again. Please consider all my things what I’m saying.

Love it but some things should be added. I love playing Fallout Shelter but there are many things that would be great to have. Perhaps a info panel to see dwellers relationships so you don’t have to write it down and get lost. It would also be nice to move rooms to different spots when you want to change your vault up a bit. It would be cool when you have a female and a male in a living room to be able to choose different choices to make them fall in love and if you choose the wrong choice there’s a chance they can’t fall in love. Although, it is not a necessity it would be cool to do when your waiting for time to pass. Maybe different things could pop up where you are asked a question and which ever one you choose could end badly or good. I am unsure if the institute is in the game but if it isn’t it would be cool if the institute can take your dwellers after completing a certain quest also it would be cool if the vault door can have an update to keep the institute out perhaps the radiation detectors or metal detectors would be really cool to have on an upgraded version of the vault door. I hope you take these thoughts into consideration and maybe add them in the future.

Updates. There is a slim chance any developer will see this but listen.. I’ve played this game for almost 5 years now I’ve re downloaded it quite a few too and I just started it back up not long ago and noticed almost no changes it’s almost sad how many people have got this game and played it and you guys have abandoned it. I grew up to who I am now playing this with so many friends and we would all share crazy ideas of what they would add next and let me tell you they were creative this game just has a special place in my heart and nothing could change it I would kill to become a developer and make some changes that’s how desperate I am but I fully understand you guys have other projects but just to like see some new weapons or outfits and references to other games would be sick! Some things I would add are the exploring feature have more unique encounters or new loot when exploring new dialogue anything like that would be killer, also maybe some like new rooms or just new weapons if that’s too much and when crafting guns maybe have it be more hands on rather than just pressing build and waiting I have no complaints for this game hands down my favorite mobile game ever worthy of 5 stars and probably in my top 3 of the best games I’ve ever played one including Fallout 4, anyways this is me signing off if the developers don’t see this maybe someone else will and decide they will leave a review too about it anyways keep working hard Bethesda 👍🏼

I saw what someone else wrote. I’ve been playing this game for about 3 1/2 to 4 years now on and off because I’ll get to a point where there’s nothing to do and it’s just the same repetitive game over and over NOTHING has changed I understand you guys have these big games your working on but those games are for people who have money and can buy a good PC,Xbox one or whatever the new one is, or PS4/5 then you guys got this game it’s an awesome little ideas you guys came up with but it feels like it was just a trophy u guys wanted for 2015 I think it was and then put it in the old used toy box we the gamers like it still if only there was just some new weapons,suits,dwellers,rooms, even if you don’t want that just add more upgrades for the ones already in place. Irk I’m not a programmer or anything but I haven’t spent a decent ammount of money on it and every time it’s a waste cause I end up just forgetting about it. Also if there is a way you can let’s us connect a profile to Facebook or to an email or just to the play store or AppStore so if we do end up uninstalling it later on if someone wants to recover their progress and money from that original vault they could cause right now it doesn’t have one or at least I haven’t found it. Thank you for your time if you did end up ready this 4 stars from me but it’s def top 3 games. P.s number one is clash of clans lol

Dwellers Not Grateful. I want to say that, I first played this game four years ago.. so addicted and spent quality time in taking care of each dweller and listening to their needs. Raiders attack’s kept killing dwellers, and regardless of all efforts, you reach to a point where you can’t revive them and you loose hope. 2 weeks ago I decided to give it another try, download it and start new. Same old habits, roaches and raiders kill almost half of the population. You quickly run low in water and power supply, everyone gets sick. I provide shelter and upgrade rooms so these dwellers can have cozy bed rooms, full equipped dinners, game rooms, fun places, yet the moment you can’t control water supply they say things like “my skin is glowing” “ my fingers are falling” “I feel a hand is growing from my stomach” really?! After every thing I have been doing to make this a dream shelter. They are just demanding! I hate the fact that rats fill empty rooms, that’s is just disgusting and ruin the idea of a perfect shelter where I am spending so much caps in upgrading rooms and stuff ... I saved a lot of caps to upgrade vault door and yet raiders can break in.. what on earth you are taking my caps then?? I wish all these dwellers can find another vault and end up with a villain who watches them burn alive

Great game however…. The game is otherwise very great its a fun game its not too time consuming considering how you have to wait for dwellers to grow up wait for dwellers to go and come back from the wasteland and etc. The only bad thing i really don't like about the game is how stressful it is the more dwellers you have and the bigger your vault becomes the more problems come like outsiders attacking your vault or rad roach infestations etc. Things like this can easily kill everyone in your vault if you not throughly prepared and most of the time you dint encounter such problems so they catch you off guard it can be a real killer to your vault. Because if everyone in your vault dies then you basically F’ed if you don't have enough money to revive your good dwellers then your gonna be in a jam for a long time lets say you have 70 dwellers and 60 of em die and you only have 1500 caps its gonna take so long for all your dwellers to be revived and not only that you wont have any dwellers to work so your vault goes under. Thats the only problem that occurred to me and it was hard to handle!

Great edition to the Fallout series. This game is awesome. In my opinion, getting five stars is great, and it means that more could be added to something to make it better, and there are few changes that need being made. That is the case with this game especially. Fallout shelter was a great idea but has a couple of problems. At least with my iPhone, when I am looking around in my vault I accidentally pick dwellers up. I have IPhone X and everything seems to work well, and the enemies need no changing at all. Although I would like a mode where you can rearrange your vault, it is not needed. I think all around a genius idea, and I do not feel like I need to purchase anything at all, (although I have,) definitely a fantastic game. Truly the Culver’s of the IPhone edition games. Disclaimer: this game is more enjoyable when you buy in app purchases!Anyone who says that you do need to pay to get far on this game, I will say, instead of just complaining, be a little more specific and helpful. If you really thought that, you could say, this game should be pay to get but you start off with more stuff. That is what I think of Fallout shelter, I hope anyone planning on getting should definitely get it.

Great game, BUT.... Why the 4/5 stars? The game is great, but, it doesn’t hit the key points it should’ve. I see many people complaining about the 200 cap and how it crashes because of so much going on. Although annoying, it was expected. It’s a mobile game, it’s not going to be perfect. Something they can add that will be PERFECT, is a rebuild mode where you can rearrange everything that you already have built, like in Clash of Clans, where you can rearrange your base all over again like it’s nothing. This problem is becoming bigger because we might not like how our layout is because of some stupid placement we did when we first started. For the love of god I don’t know if anyone else has this problem or if there is a fix but I don’t know it, but dragging dwellers from outside to the bottom is extremely annoying because it glitches so hard, if I can have the option to just click them from room to room instead of dragging that’d be great. Quests, the only part that keeps me going, add more, that’s it, just add more. Other than that we’ll see where it goes. And hopefully, if ever, some type of multiplayer, maybe to quest, maybe to trade, give limited amounts of supplies or whatever. Multiplayer isn’t fallout it but he got mobile why not or at least be able to do that between your own vaults would be nice too, just like settlements in Fallout. Great game overall, just keep adding things for us to come back too. Thanks for taking the time to read this.

Great game, but.... This game is a great, addicting, and skillful game. It also requires lots of patience. But one annoying issue with the game is that you can not replace the rooms of where you put them, because, in the beginning, you put everything everywhere because you have no clue what you are doing. But as your vault becomes bigger and greater, you realize you need to move the rooms, but sadly you can not. To avoid that please read this: try to have every level be it’s own level, and have its own certain rooms, but only one room per level. To make that more clear, here is a example: have one floor be only living quarters, another only power generator, another diner, and so one. But make sure those are the only things on the floor. I recommend not to have 2 or more different rooms on a floor because you can expand a room if you put the same room next to each other. If you listen to that advice, I think your good and the game will be a spectacular ride to go through, challenging you and letting you have lots of fun! I strongly recommend on getting this game!

Needs alittle TLC. Don’t get me wrong, this is a great game but it’s pretty easy most of the time. As soon as you’ve unlocked all the rooms there’s not much else to do apart from finishing quests and getting recipes. I know the devs are busy on other projects but there’s so much potential for this game to be bigger. Such as adding in new rooms like a pet daycare to train pets and raise their stats, different types of production rooms that utilize some stats like Endurance and Charisma for producing crafting materials, maybe even a monitoring room where you can designate and create specific teams of dwellers. Adding new dialogue or even giving the overseer the ability to interact personally with dwellers to raise happiness. Adding more variety to incidents and attacks like radiation leaks or bloatfly infestations. Even giving fun seasonal events and limited time weapons/outfits. It’s a great game to begin with but not a whole lot of work has been keeping it up to date. Even if it means whole new sequel like Fallout settlement where you can build different houses and buildings would be amazing, y’all have a great thing going here. Don’t let time and lack of care reduce this game to just another app taking up space. I have had a few problems with trying to move dwellers and the camera/movement wigs out making it difficult to swap them around, heck even adding to where we can search items and dwellers by name would be fantastic

This game is very well designed... BUT. This game is so well designed with the art and activities... BUT I gotta say... this is the most STRESSFUL game I have ever played. I was constantly low on food and water causing my dwellers to have low health and then I was bombarded by high level monsters, especially the Deathclaws. With my food and water almost always being at 0 or close to 0, I had to rush a lot but even if my risk level was 28%, almost all of the time my rushes would fail, resulting in a high level monster attack. (Also, it wasn’t like I had bad dwellers or anything. All of my dwellers were assigned to the correct places and given good clothing and good guns). Since my dwellers were already low health, the high level monsters basically took them out in one hit. In my experience, the Deathclaws are impossible to kill. I’ve always had to move my dwellers to a different part of the shelter to escape them but the Deathclaws always ended killing off a good majority of my dwellers. In the end I couldn’t take the stress anymore and deleted the app after a huge Mole Rat infestation killed off almost all of my dwellers. So, in conclusion, I think that this is a very well made game BUT it is not for people who cannot handle the large amount of stress and frustration.

👍👍👍. I downloaded this game because I heard of fallout 4, and I don’t have a console or pc. So I found this, and this is a AWESOME GAME, it has an afk element, so you can collect stuff when you’re not playing, PLUS an adventure element with the quests you can complete, It’s the all in one party pack, it has tower defense (when you’re defending from RadRoaches, Raiders etc), and some adventure and role playing when you go on quests, PLUS tycoon and resource management (for obvious reasons), an all around good game, plus some NON mandatory pay to win, if you’re into that sort of thing, ONE drawback would be it can be hard to start for the first time, some beginner tips- Don’t build to many rooms, you will lose power quickly, and water is important, or else people will get radiation and die ☢️, and if an accident happens and you drop your device in a toilet, your vault will be on the cloud, so if you log in from another device, your vault will be there, and if you delete your vault, it will be there when you re download it, love this game, and if you say it’s bad, you are bad at the game, and didn’t play it through properly

Outstanding game but there isn’t enough variety outside the vault. Needs some new areas to explore I loved the scenery in the fallout games and on fallout shelter. However every quest is either (1) Building or (2) Cave. Now those are fine but more variety would be good I’ve played it until I got bored a year ago and I’m playing it again because it’s such a good game. I just feel like it loses something after a while, new scenery and fight mechanics maybe would help save the game. Have some open areas, explore towns, meet more characters. And Definately new villains, mutants, bloatflys and ants, perhaps brotherhood outcasts. And I know this is a lot but what I enjoyed most about the fallout games was finding different areas most of which were open. This game the only thing that really changes is the rewards on missions and with the exception of the horsemen quest which was well done by the way are basically the same. All in all it’s an outstanding game but it needs more to keep me playing. Also a story missions, they leave much to be desired I like the goofy take on fallout it is different from the main games but please Bethesda has made my favorite games and this one could use more updates and new content. Also change up the dwellers grind, more conversations and maybe different movements and interactions.

Good game but profound late game flaws. I really like the game, it does a lot right with balancing and mechanics but certain things make the game unenjoyable. The game operates well, but one reoccurring mechanic seems to dulls things. Certain disasters can happen that require an immediate response or the problem and consequences will worsen. It could be a fire, a raider attack, ghouls... I’m at population 60 so I’m getting deathclaws now. It’s not bad, but the problem is, consistently, I get deathclaws everytime I log in. I can’t take it. I deal with them but the punishment is severe and repetitive. I get through after waiting a couple of minutes for my dwellers throughout the vault to shoot them as I heal the injuries, but when this happens everytime I log in, it becomes a nuisance. It seems to just be on a timer, which is ok if it’s spaced out more, but it isn’t. I log in every couple of hours throughout the day (3 times) and 90% of the time there’s an attack I have to deal with. It’s too much, it’s too inconvenient. I can’t enjoy this really good game. It’s a shame but I might just stop playing because of it. It’s just so TEDIOUS. The very least they could do is switch up the disaster, but it’s always deathclaws. I have them attacking me right now. I’m just so fed up that I decided to write about it instead, so that the developers may hear my plight.

Amazing game but needs some changes. Alright I’ve been playing this game ever since I was like 5 and I loved it it was just a blast of fun and always kept me entertained now that I’m 15 I can say the game is still as amazing as it was back then but now I realize there could be so much more potential in this one idea I have for it is a kinda multiplayer mode where you can raid other vaults and such you don’t have to do it but it’s an option and on top of that I think it would be fun to be able to do a thing I call a adventure which is kinda like a co-op version of a quest where you take two dwellers and then go on a big quest or do something like a battle mode where two people pick out 3 dwellers to fight each other for a reward of some kind I think it would be really cool to have that.I guess that’s all I have to say I have no problem with the game on how it is now but I’m just saying it would be a cool addition anyways developers if you see this please take into thought what I said you don’t need to do what I just said any kinda fun update will do and I hope you have a splendid day because your games made my childhood

Deathclaws are an unfair tear down of all resources. I have gotten this game & spent money on this game. Over the years I have enjoyed it and just when I am building up my vault and things are going well ( i always had just spent money on boxes or something) and the deathclaws come through and kill 3 floors of my people. I don’t ever have enough money to revive even half of them, meaning I lose all my outfits and weapons as well, so I will get aggravated with the game and I uninstall it and put it down for a year or two. One day I forget how aggravating it is and I start playing again- I will not do that again if the game stays as awful as it is. You should have more challenge as the game progresses but not to decimate your resources for half of your vault with no way to defend against them (no gun or level seems to kill them) so that you have half of what you have worked for for weeks still remaining in seconds. Until they change that I won’t spend another penny on this game and won’t recommend it to anyone, in fact I will tell them how pointless it is to play this game and warn them not to spend any money on this game! No one should have to spend time and money on a game to have a random attack take out half of what you have built.

Amazing but some thoughts for updates. I love this game don’t get me wrong but after I put so much time into I kind of got bored of the game. I like the quest and all that but what I was really looking for was a more rooms and more things you could do at your base. Maybe add some fallout 4 and fallout 76 things into the game. I mean why not all the players would love it and there’s nothing saying you can’t do that lol. Or maybe surprise us with something else big added to the game that will keep us busy for a while. If not that’s cool it’s still an amazing game. What if there where factions you could partake in like certain quest in like there is in all the other fallouts. Or caravans that came and stopped by every now n then you could trade with and they could bring you some cool stuff. Orrr like maybe a way we could tame a horse or like find some mad max looking car to make traveling faster and have better defenses while traveling. How about a alien abduction side quest where your on the zeata space ship. We also love references to the older games lol those are fun. I have a lot more ideas but I don’t want to be rambling I don’t even know if you guys are updating the game anymore but if you are takes these into thought and if you like my ideas contact me and I’ll tell them all to you 👍

Radscorpions are a pan and some thing you might be able to add. So I’m having this issue we’re I fail a rush or it’s just random but I repeatedly get radscorpion attacks. It gets so repetitive that I don’t play it much anymore. I stay on to long I get a radscorpion I rush a room and a radscorpion comes in. Then they keep moving around and I can’t focus on killing it since I have a ton of rooms and I send a dude to defend and the radscorpion moves. They also take power away instantly like 30 seconds I’m down to like no power I can fill it up pretty easy but another one will come in and I will have to get my power up again. It’s so annoying to defend to the point I just leave the game. Thats why I give a three star rating it would also be nice to be able to move the rooms around because it starts to cost a lot of caps to destroy them rebuild them. This ones a little stupid but I think it would be nice to have a nuke quantum maker that takes like a day to get one and you have to find a recipe from the wasteland or something. I loved this game to death till I had the radscorpion attacks constantly but I still love it. Thanks for your time if you read this I would appreciate if you could look into some of these. Have a good day!!!!

Halloween! And what I can look forward to. (First of all I love this game and appreciate all the challenges it poses- it truly requires vault management and strategy to strive in this game, and just annoys me when people bash the game for over building and overpopulating only to complain about the over-inflated difficulty they themselves caused) HALLOWEEN, hopefully new things come from this, I’ve had this game for a while but I haven’t really picked it up since this month. I am heading for end game and I’m already feeling the end of things to do, my mission lists are becoming increasingly smaller and I hope this update comes with new missions like the previous years brought, but hopefully there are future updates to retain some freshness to the game. Don’t get me wrong, I’ll continue playing no matter what, but maybe new “off-holiday” missions, new wasteland events, and if we are lucky new weapons enemies or dwellers.. (but I most care about the first 2 things I mentioned) Hopefully bathesda can try to revive this game, but with the coming of 76 I can imagine this game only becoming more dead, or even possibly being bombarded with 76 weapons characters, enemies, events, clothes, missions... something I can look forward to if it ever happens. (Most likely after 76 has been out for a couple years) but non the less this game is great and anything that ever is pushed out into fallout shelter is a win in my book.

Me hating when:. I like the game, but I hate the broken stuff like the mysterious stranger in a elevator and also this: RADSCORPIONS! They consume way to much power then I don’t have enough like why. I understand that the more power and the more rooms you have, the more power is consumed, but having 1800 power to 500 makes no sense. Plus, three deathclaws, that doesn’t even make sense in any fallout games and I had 6 dwellers die and have average happiness go to 48% and the vault failed cause of radscorpion and deathclaw. So please just make the radscorpion easier to kill, I understand, the radscorpion is a tough one but them making your dwellers really unhappy by giving them radiation then having no stimpaks and RadAway is like plague inc where greenland is fully healthy and Iceland closed their seaports. So that’s why I give it 4/5 experience and also, I want build mode like clash of clans like please, build mode will bring back your fans of fallout shelter and add more quests please like do you not want your only mobile game to die; then I probably suggest you giving them what they really want.

An Honest Opinion. This game is a very well produced byte-sized version of the ever astonishing FALLOUT series. The first time I played this game I didn't really seem to fall directly in love with it... much like the first time I played fallout in general... It seemed too drawn out and lengthy to enjoy right off... but I was very much mistaken... With the regular Fallout, and again with this tidbit from Bethesda,.. It is Astonishing and Magnificent. I encourage everyone to give this game a chance (not just the fallout fans) and once you find yourself on that first in-depth quest, you will surely agree that this is a masterpiece of great proportions, micro-sized. I'm giving this my full fallout approval of 5/5 stars! Whenever there's a time to wait in the real world.... that is the perfect time to launch a quick fallout mission to leave you wishing... your ride took just a bit longer to arrive! A must have for all fans of vibrant graphics and hilarious fallout classic humor. Thanks for reading and just don't take my word for it!!! Make this adaption apart of your permanent mobile collection. I Did.

Fun, but there are things I would love to see in game. I love this game, I love the fact you can spy on your vault dwellers and see what they’re saying. And how now you can find places in the wasteland and explore them. And how there’s quests. But there are things that I would love to see in game, and if by any chance the developers see this review would take into consideration. The setting for one has been the same since day one, well, not exactly the same, but still same. I would love to be a different place the vault is located, like in fallout 4 how vault 111 goes straight down instead inside a mountain, and the outside be in the woods, or near water. And I would love it if u could make your choices in the wasteland, for instance. If your exploring dweller says there are raiders near but they go away, I would like the choice to attack, or if there was an abandoned building you can explore like a quest, or if you find a friendly ghoul you can bring the along with you and receive a quest, and maybe bring them to the vault. But with consequences. Maybe they’re a traitor and have constant attacks, or they’re friends but bring radiation, but can fix that. Finally, armor. With the armored vault suit I think it would be cool to have different levels of it, like level one is leather, level two is raider armor, level 3 meter, level four is synth armor. Again if you see this please take into consideration.

Loved it for a long time, but..... I loved this game for a very long time, working my way through the missions and up my stats. The problem is that once you finally get to a point where you have some really good weapons and some all-10... there’s nothing to do. There’s no higher challenge that actually makes all that work meaningful. All assaults are reliably stopped - you don’t even have to pay much attention. You can’t build past limits on rooms. Your population is capped, and you can’t turn survivors away, so you have to either kick one of your good people out into the wasteland, or else leave this sad line of refused refugees (which, in today’s world, has become a triggerey concept). I mean, at least be able to turn them away vs sacrificing one of your own! I haven’t touched the game in over a year. I have other idle games I’ve been playing for longer, and I’m still playing them, because they’re truly endless. I wish the devs would add more at the top end. Let us build proactive external defenses. Multiplayer. Alliances. Attack other Vaults. Or best: find a way to achieve peace and win by good lasting alliances, feeding the mutants, and divesting all weapons. (Ok, that’s a hippy pipe dream, but the rest!)

BIG HINT IN REVIEW. First of all, this is an addicting game. It is great. There is just one major problem that resulted in me giving this game four stars. Whenever you leaver, your dwellers still use up supplies such as water, food, power, etc. Therefore, you have to play it about every 30 minutes. For people who have to sleep, go to school, do homework, etc., it is extremely frustrating to come back to a vault depleted of supplies. There are two ways to fix this problem. 1. Your dwellers don't use resources while you are absent. 2. There is someway to collect resources while you are gone. If this problem gets fixed then it will be an automatic five stars, because like I said this game is great besides for that one big problem. This is my second review. Once you get a lot of the supply rooms, you don't have to worry about not having supplies. It is much easier to get supplies. Plus BIG HINT. LUCK INCREASES CHANCE OF GOOD RUSH!!! For people who have not started, REMEMBER THIS HINT. It is crucial to the progression of this game. Well good job Bethesda. This game is a one of a kind.

Really enjoyable game. Perfect game to play whenever whether it be just to check up on your vault, or send your dwellers on some quest. Very enjoyable! But, I would like to offer a suggestion to improve the game if Bethesda would like to take this into consideration. What if you were to have a variety of different conflicts or disputes within the vault that could be solved and each one could pop up when you reach a certain amount of dwellers (for example every ten or so) and will say something like, “Jimmy wanted a comic that Brian had, Grognak Issue 14, but didn’t want to trade anything and instead stole it from Brian. What should you do to reprimand Jimmy?” And will have options like “Blame Brian for not giving it to him, Do nothing, limit his rations, or Exile him from the vault”. And certain actions will have consequences like for example if you exile him a diner might refuse to work in protest of his unfair treatment and you would need to pass a speech check which would be kind of like rushing a room or, wait 24 hours for them to start working again. I know this is a lot and would be a lot of work, I just thought it might add another dimension to the game and make it even more enjoyable than the already enjoyable game it is. Thank you!!

Amazing, 1 problem that happened. This game IS amazing. Just started playing 2 days ago! I had a very annoying thing that happened to me. Since I haven’t made the overseer’s office, I couldn’t go to quests. I build it today and it the the thing. It guided me to what to do and all but it chose a character that somewhat sucked and his armor was bad and he also had no weapon. I couldn’t interact with anything except for the begin quest button. So I basically wasted the 20 colas it gave me and I had to bring the character back so I can redo the quest. I then used another 5 colas and another cola to bring my BEST character back from exploring, And I had 9 colas left. This was annoying. The game chose a character that sucked at the quest. Finally, I sent my best guy and the other sucky character with PROPER equipment and sent them back to the quest. Problem is I couldn’t rush them to the quest like when I was forced to just sent my guy with nothing special in the beginning, and I needed 10 colas to rush them to the quest! So yeah..... That aside, keep up the good work with the game! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Op creatures in missions or highly underrated missions.. Been playing this game almost since release if i remember correctly tho i could be wrong but i have been playing it for a while and honestly it was funner back then there were no ads or anything especially when those ads weren't the same rewards over n over, but i was able to put up with them. But after getting back into the game for the fall and thanksgiving events this time around ive noticed the missions are severely underrated. I would send dwellers with decent amount of good gear and health and stuff with lvls 5-10 higher than the recommended and decent stats but each time and they get one shotted by all the creature type enemies in a mission that u wouldn't expect creatures in. I literally could barely even completely the vault birthday quests let alone some of the tg or the bot missions cuz I kept getting slaughtered! It would be a lvl 9 missions with no gun requirements i would send 3 lvl 15-25 dwellers with outfits to boost their stats and guns at least 10+ and still getting slaughtered. Idk whats going on but seriously need to reevaluate ur missions and play test them plz. These creatures are literally 2 shotting my dwellers and mowing them down within a few turns on the first room. By the time i get the the actual objective im all out of stims and barely get any back.

Great game.. As most people claim, no, it is not P2W. I have had this for 2 days and have over 20 dwellers and Weapon Workshop. Everyone in my vault is armed, I have done 3 quests, and gotten a rare dweller (His name was I think Richard Price). This is a great app and if your dwellers die from raiders, stop whining. It's a FALLOUT GAME. I have not paid for a single thing and have a few dwellers with high stats. Not a single person has died (one did on a quest, revived) in my vault. Don't listen to people who rate it 1 star and say "you have to pay to win this is so bad it's too hard!" Like I said, it's a fallout game. It doesn't have to be easy, does it? In conclusion this game is good to fill in time, enjoyable, and at its best, moderately hard! Another thing, if dwellers don't come, use the LIVING QUARTERS. And if you make it far enough, you will get the radio station. They come every 2 hours unlike naturally, and it literally takes a few hours for the mating technique for dwellers. So yes, this is a good game, don't listen to the 1 star complainers. There is one bug but might be easy to resolve. Sometimes it will tell me someone is in the wasteland when they aren't, but yes, it's a good game.

Curb Your Expectations; it's a game. For what it's intended to be, it's a pretty good little game. If your woke sensibilities get all offended because of gender roles in a game like this, then you probably have bigger issues than writing game reviews. Unlike real life, it's just a game. Grow up. Minor beefs that I have are with the game mechanics, which just seem to make it easier to get slaughtered. When you direct a dweller to a new room, usually to stem some ridiculous emergency, they always--ALWAYS--run to the wrong end of the room they are in before running in the right direction. This wastes critical seconds of response time. It's stupid and aggravating. Also, while in fights on quests, the dwellers will arbitrarily stop fighting to run around the room Willy Nilly. In a close fight, this can be fatal. It too is stupid and aggravating. If the dwellers would just stop running around like extras in a Spongebob episode, things would get done better with less carnage. It's not cute or funny--it's just annoying. It doesn't make me want to buy bundles; it makes me want to quit and go read a book.

I can’t do anything. I have had problems with this game on 2 platforms,Xbox and noble. First it starts with idiotically strong mole rats wiping out half my vault, and now I’ve had the same problem. I got rad roaches in 1 room,ONE, and I gave every dweller in that room a powerful gun. The roaches still spread, and they’re not supposed to spread in a room with dwellers. It took about a minute to get rid of the roaches in the ONE room with weapons doing 7 to 22 or more damage, there was maybe 4 dwellers in there with really good weapons. It spread to many other rooms and eventually I killed them all. Right after I killed them all another group of rad roaches appeared. After it all went down, about 3 or 4 dwellers died, in which I had to exploit a glitch to get the caps to revive them. The glitch got me a bunch of caps and lunchboxes, but even after getting several power plants, diners, and water plants, i was still struggling to get enough supplies. I was getting supplies left and right from lunchboxes yet I still didn’t have enough. There is no way 40 dwellers need almost 300 or 400 food, and about 20 rooms shouldn’t need almost the whole bar of power, nor does 40 dwellers also need 300 or 400 water. It is very difficult to get the supplies I need and to fend off attacks, in which that is why I am rating this game 1 star. I loved fallout 4 Bethesda, I know you can do better.

Mostly Amazing..some suggestions. This game is great. I love the fallout series and I feel they have done it great justice. I have Dogmeat in my vault and that makes me smile. Micromanaging you’re vault is pretty satisfying generally with some issues maybe if you try to expand too quickly. But a great game overall. I wish there were more/new cosmetic options added for the barbershop and armor/clothing options occasionally or acquired via quest or something, since at a certain point making your dwellers look interesting and acquiring new named characters from the game are mostly what there is left to do once you hit the vault cap. Above all I wish the population cap was higher in general. I’ve run into problems when the line outside the vault gets too long where I must evict dwellers to let my dwellers return to the vault. If you are at max capacity and lose one of your dwellers to a pregnancy she is stuck that way indefinitely until space is made for the child. These conflicts are my biggest complaints at the moment. Some birth control options would be good to deal with the population cap issue. Being able to send dwellers between vaults to trade with other players or something would be a cool addition also I have several vaults for different family members it would be cool to be able to send dwellers to other vaults. Definitely worth playing

Survival mode. It’s broken. Attempted three separate vaults and all of them resulted in either fire, radroach or raiders wiping out everyone. It’s primarily due to the rate in which these catastrophes occur. Fleeing from fires is one route, pregnant woman tend to survive in that aspect, but doesn’t protect your resources. I’ve found the ONLY way to manage is to keep the game closed and intermittently open the app to collect stims. Ergo avoiding playing to be able to heal and survive seems extremely counterproductive to encourage people to attempt survival mode. I’ve played this game some time ago, but without survival and didn’t run into many issues. Most I noticed was the frequent deathclaw attacks. My biggest complaint and honestly the best fix for this issue is simply by just decreasing the rate in which your vault is potentially in peril. Between collecting resources, I spent most of the time clicking on each dweller and checking their life, weapons and armor trying to strategize who can be utilized in response to the disasters. Basically just anxiously waiting for the alarm to sound. I can understand making the mode harder, but not on the verge of being completely impossible..

Please add the following. It would be AWESOME and make the game more challenging... but mostly challenging... if you added room durability so during disasters the rooms durability lowers. When a room’s durability drains completely the dwellers will run out of the room and become on “coffee break”. When all dwellers are out the room will start to collapse and the room with fill with dirt and it cost a small amount of caps depending on the rooms level (like dwellers). Here’s how the durability deplete will be for these rooms: power: the generator explodes and destroys the entire room. Water: the water tanks break causing the room to flood and blast doors close to prevent vault flood. Food: room collapses under all the dirt and gets crushed by dirt. Vault door: the vault door starts to fill with radiation and a blasted door closes to prevent radiation spread, 1 Minute later the door breaks und pressure from radiation (a breaks like it was under attack and broke open) when the door breaks dwellers can’t: explore, do quests, and guard the door. Thanks for reading this (if u did) and I hope you add the list. Thanks

Indirect Inbreeding and age play. I’m very concerned about this, I’ve loved this game for many years and started playing as a child, and have spent a lot of real money into my investment because the game play itself is very very good. People around me were also concerned about this so they urged me to write this: Dwellers can have kids with indirect family (not direct family) like aunts/uncles/nephews/niece as long as they’re both adults. This is also stated in their wiki page. I’ve also created a family tree after day and night of planning to avoid it from happening, but then it escalated to something else: Age play, like literally, a dweller born decades before their partner can still mate with eachother; The child grew up next to an adult which is their future partner, it’s quite predatory and traumatic when you think about it. I know that the dwellers can’t age when they become adults or die from natural causes - but it unethical, it violates their rights as people, albeit virtual. Another thing is that Dwellers must procreate or their happiness goes down, I wish there were other ways instead of paying every time for pet crates so I don’t have to put dwellers together again. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying it’s a bad game, I’m saying that there are updates that needs to happen. Please consider adding a few things. I know that the devs has added in the past that direct family members can’t recreate, which is something I really really appreciate.

Pretty good but...(additions). I just want to start off by stating that I love this game and I hope that I can continue playing it for much longer but I do have one issue. When rushing rooms even with the incident probability at 27% and all 6 dwellers in the room having formal clothing on an incident will be caused on my game. The reason I bring that up is because when I'm low on resources due to a deathclaw attack or ghoul attack it's hard to recover over time so when I rush a room and a single radscorpion comes out but goes through my whole vault with every dweller armed with weapons that do between 8 and 17 damage and with almost every room other than my hospitals and science centers having 6 dwellers it is a bit annoying due to how much power the scorpion saps from the vault. It's especially annoying when in a mission it takes three dwellers only about three shots(attacks) each to bring one down doing between 12 and 17 damage it doesn't make sense how a room of six armed dwellers with a high level and high health to not only not be able to beat a single radscorpion but also almost everyone in that room nearly dying I think that's a bit overpowered. Highest level dweller is lvl. 33. (Additions) Future updates should allow for more than one vault/settlement per game so that the maximum for dwellers can grow.

Awesome game but a little confused with outfits. The game is one of the best I’ve played, you’ve really done well with developing. The only thing I don’t get is why is power armour so bad in this? In the other fallout games it’s always been one of the best but in this I keep losing it because my dwellers swap them for rare outfits that are somehow better. Could you make the power armour a little better? It’s one of the most aesthetically pleasing but it still doesn’t make sense that a fancy suit is better than a giant set of armour

New content!. I first played this game back in 2015 and absolutely loved it, I was also playing Fallout 4 at that time too. I left the game as it got to a point of no advance and need real engagement but now 5 years later I’ve revisited it with Fallout 76 and it’s got new content which will make for another good run. Unfortunately my previous Shelter was 2 phones ago on the same account but I can’t revive that..

The mighty have fallen.. Latest update just pushed this game off my phone due to new advertising spam freshly implanted into this game. Now I have to wait 30 seconds through unskipable ads for other mobile games, everytime I have a vault dweller explore the wastelands, every 8 hours (not in game, it’s based on your clock). This game already had a monetisation model built into the game!! But now as they are rolling out “FALLOUT SHELTER ONLINE” I guess this is being framed more and more to be the free to play crappy version! This was the last way I found it comfortable and acceptable to support the fallout franchise since the disgusting actions throughout fallout76, but now that does it!! I’m done with the fallout universe and Bethesda studios!

Great game!. I’ve been playing this game for a few years now and i luv it! I would recommend this game for people who like post-apocalyptic games or fallout in general. One thing i would like to be added, is the ability to customise two or more dwellers at once in the same barber shop. I found it a bit irritating that i had to buy more than one barber shop to customise more than one dweller at once

broken ad feature, buggy game. Was going smoothly, just opened up a second vault, loved the game, then suddenly a bug appears of having to wait more than 300hours to watch an ad! what’s worse is there’s zero solution to fix this & upon researching this problem has existed for years, you haven’t mastered this bug over years time? really guys? this game is pretty big i’m shocked they’d let this fly. The app also constantly sends me false notifications, saying such and such have completed a task, but when i click the notif to check, the task hasn’t been complete. Would love some help on how to fix these problems, i’d definitely change my review if this could be solved.

Pretty dam good. This game is certainly a gem in the filth of the App Store I love the style and look but I had and idea that I think would be really good in the game as an attack there should be Enclave vertibirds that drop 2to4 Enclave soldiers that attack your vault and there should be faction base such as the insititute the great knans or minute settelments and you should have and a reputation that can go up or down depending on your dwellers actions that you can make and for example if you anger the insititute the send synths after your vault if you added something like this it would be pretty awesome and amazing

PLAY THIS GAME!!!.

Addictive game. Great game, love the references to the fallout games and the mechanics of the gameplay are fun. I used to play it years ago when it first came out. Defoe loaded it recently to find new additions such as quests, overseers office and more. Where it looses the 5th star for me is that you can’t move the rooms, you have to destroy them and rebuild them where you want which is such a waste of caps to build the rooms and get them upgraded. I just don’t like having to redo the rooms just to make the vault the aesthetic that I want. If they introduced a “move” room system, I’d bump it to 5 stars. Sorry.

Enemies way too strong. Dear Bethesda I really like your game it is AWESOME! But there are a few things I would like fixed. First thing is that can you make the enemies a bit weaker because i have a level 34 dweller doing level 15 missions and the enemies are way too overpowered whenever they attack it takes at least 2 or 3 shots with my plasma rifle and they take a quarter of my health especially radscorpions please fix this I usually burn through stimpacks just to do a mission. The second thing is can you add characters from New Vegas I would love Ulysses or Casear. And finally can you add grenades for dwellers to throw hope you read this.

Good, but there’s a bug that’s been bugging me. When I click on the Quests List, there’s only one dweller who it’ll let me select. There used to be two, but one of them died because I was sending two dwellers on a three dweller quest and the Children of Atom squashed her like a lone radroach. I can’t do all my quests with just one guy! Please fix this. Apart from that, it’s as good a game as I could expect from what it is. Hardly life changing, I wouldn’t recommend it to a friend... but I also didn’t pay any money whatsoever for it, so:it’s pretty darn good for a time waster.

Fallout shelter review. This is a truely wonderful game worth playing. This game is full of awesome challenges that you have to overcome in your vault. I find it as a fun experience to be able to collect weapons and armour during your adventure. Having a little trouble with your vault, well you can always start again which is also fun. You get to learn from your mistakes in this game and soon you will have started the greatest vault yet. I give this game 6/5 stars.

defeated. I had finally gotten my vault on the uprise, two lvl30 guards at the door both with robot companions that deal extra damage, four lvl20+ men all fitted with armour and rifles that do large damage, I even went through the trouble of levelling up all males and equipping them with guns, however, this still wasn’t enough for deathclaws. my first encounter and even with upgrades to my vault door and all said preparation from previous raids. this. they lasted about 20 minutes, killed every guard and ran through each room twice. I was left with about 5 people left after I had around 50/60. this destroyed all motivation I could possibly have for the game. I have on and off picked up this game over the years, but this experience absolutely diminished everything inside me that could ever bring me back to rebuild what I had. thousands of caps worth of damage. my power and food and water are always low, despite having 3+ massive rooms for each completely filled with everybody that fits and exceeds the requirements for whichever field is needed. it was briefly fun, but it feels like a chore to play.

Love the game. Hi developers I never ever played games until my husband patiently showed me : he also plays iOS fall out : I am addicted to my iPad fall out : however been playing for ages now : don’t do the quests both hubby n I don’t like them : I would like to see ability to move the barracks later in the game : also to have more interesting customisation eg in hair n outfits and look of vaults furniture eg eg as same colours of rooms gets very boring : when u get boxes late in game wild like better guns and robots eg but apart from alll this love the game

Has better quests then fallout 4. No way Bethesda, cya later you ruined this game with the big play advert button on the game screen that catches your eye constantly. I hate what Zenimax has made you do. Fallout Shelter was paid for by the Fallout 4 marketing budget. It has paid itself 100 fold and yet your seeking to drain our pocketss with this gratuitous act. Just after you started to fix two years of mistakes with F76 Wastelanders DLC I cannot believe you’ve done this to your customers. Shame on you _______ I would like it if some DLC could be provided. Maybe more then one vault or being able to make subway like tunnels between vaults. More mini games and random events say earthquakes damaging the vault or opening up new areas. Also more things to build. Maybe stuff on the surface. And maybe instead of raiders more lore based opponents like brotherhood or outcast coming to confiscate your energy based weapons.

Such a great game!!!!!!. This game is very fun to play and I find myself playing it all the time. I had a look at other reviews and some where quite confusing. One said that mole rats are annoying and another said the Deathclaws and Radscorpions ruin the game. I have versed all of them and they are not that hard to defeat. You just need to know the pattern for the Deathclaw and the Radscorpions tell you which room they will attack next. Not too hard. (You just need a few stimpacks at the ready). I just love this game though. I am now looking at buying the board game. I also love the idea of Mr. Handy, it is a work of art!!! A review said that the game plays on in the background. I don’t see this as a problem and if I’m worried some thing bad will happen I will just close it (by double clicking the home button and then swiping the app up) and this works perfectly fine. This game is also one of the first games I actually enjoy and it has no Ads!!!!! The only time you would watch an ad is if you want to get either caps, nuka-cola quantum bottles, crates, and pets (and you can select the option if you want to watch the ad). Another time you might watch an ad is if you wanted a guaranteed rush which you can select. If you are still reading I am quite impressed as this is a long review, but a long review is a detailed review. I would defiantly recommend this app if you are interested in getting a very fun and entertaining game. Thanks for the app Bethesda!!!!

This is the best game. I am still a noOB at it I got 23 pets and 10 rooms down and 5 across and I wish Thad they would add fist of your dewlers explore it the wasteland plz one review I hope of first person 😶😍👨‍💻😜😂 have a go I’m a 8 year old plz FRIST PERSON 🤯 and it really is better life underground and the rocks block you from building your volt go on have go thanks 🙏 creators 1 quick question if there is first person mode is person put it in the settings plz yes no maybe plz play this game thank you creators

Fun but please add an edit mode!!!. I remember getting this game when it first released as I love love LOVE the fallout games. This one (being a mobile game mind you) is really fun!! Most idle builder games are boring and smash you with ads, but this one only gives you ads if you want to guarantee a rush so it’s nice to see. The only issue I have here is the room building, you see, it’s been a while since I played this and didn’t realise you can expand a rooms size by two if you build it next to another so I’m stuck with a few rooms that are of the same caliber and cannot double it’s size unless a destroy a few and move it that way. Please add a edit mode where the people working in that room disappear and you can move and expand rooms with your leisure. Other than that this game is really fun and addicting!!!

Great Game. I love the fallout series the idea of the world being totally destroyed by nuclear war and having to scavenge the wasteland for survival I have played and finished Fallout4 game repeatedly at least 10 times. But the different view of this game with the vaults and sending dwellers out to find recourses I would like to see something else added like a turret defence system and I loved the ability to send dwellers on quests but I think there could be improvements in the quest area like more quests and maby even a way to find and collanize a second vault to control. Heno1164

Bugs and Glitches. Fallout Shelter is an amazing game and I have been playing it since 2017, however on my main vault, which is relatively new, has been experiencing bugs and a major glitch that’s has ruined the vault. When ever I try to send one of my dwellers to the Wastelands, they will head out and search but the logs won’t show up and they don’t collect anything as well as not taking any damage (didn’t apply to quests). Please try and fix this glitch in a future update of the game.

Played years ago and back into it. This game is so much fun. I never played the fallout games, and downloaded this for the heck of it. Recently, got back into the game and forgot how much fun it is. While, I still think it deserves 5 stars, I would love to see more development on the game, more rooms and things to do. Sometimes the quests can get boring and repetitive action, so something more varied there would be awesome.

Awesome game. I was really surprised how addictive this game is. I never spend money on games I prefer to slowly accumulate points by playing but I admit this game got to me and I was tempted to buy lunchboxes! I was so happy with this game but one thing really upset me !! You can only have 200 dwellers in the vault so if/ when a new one shows up or you accidentally leave a man and woman in the barracks and she gets pregnant you have to evict someone or leave someone stranded outside or leave the poor woman pregnant forever. It’s awful to evict someone they all worked hard for the vault - surely there’s like a nice way to send them to another vault or something ?? Especially if you have other vaults where you don’t have enough people ? Other than that I love it and I suppose it’s realistic that you can only have so many people and have to choose but I found that so harsh evicting people!

Great Game, Here Are Some Ideas!. Here are some ideas: 1. Franchises so when you have a really big shelter, you can open a second one to keep yourself busy 2. It would be great if there was a plot like a backstory and little mini animations for reaching something 3. Go to different places like open shelter in different environments 4. Resolution like going somewhere to escape the wasteland or curing the contamination or building a dome around your shelter so you can go outside

Glitch 🙁. Im quite surprised that a game that has been on the AppStore for quite a long time still has a TON of annoying glitches that just aren’t fair. It has happened to me quite a few times now that all the legendary loot I have collected on quests and then click collect that I don’t get them. I have looked a few times before I collect them and I see that I have enough storage to hold them and if I check the log where you have a look over all the weapons you have collected, these items do not show up.. i don’t know what it is but it is very frustrating and disappointing that the game never gives me my legendary loot... PLEASE FIX THIS.

Great but needs quality of life and bug fixes. I play on iPad air 4th gen and it’s very unresponsive at times and the same bugs pop up often. Such as when sending a dweller to explore, the caps and stimpak icon and numbers will merge together so i can’t see what i have collected properly. The touch isn’t very responsive either just feels very clunky at times. Great game otherwise, just needs a clean up and bug fixes. Especially for iPad (but i come across similar bugs on my iPhone as well)

AMAZING!!!. This game is so good I play it all the time but maybe you could add a few things like grenades. I was thinking also you could get an option for people to pair up when they go exploring in the wasteland because they’re always complaining about being lonely. Also could you add more lunchboxes? You get about five at the start and then rarely see them after that. The game kind of gets boring after you get 30 or so dwellers and I think it’s really exciting opening them. Otherwise this game is awesome (and a little bit addictive) so great job! Thanks for reading 😋😋😋

Best game ever!!! But.... I like this game a lot and I thoroughly recommend more people should buy it. There is one small complaint I would like to make though. Whenever I make a good vault and am going well I get a mole rat attack. I hate this because even if I equipped everyone with weapons still about half my people die. The the developer fixed this I would be really happy and I think a lot more people would play it to.

It's alright a little more to this game. this game i have to admit that this game is great but hard why don't they have an update with 3D Graphics and adds defences outside the vault like some gates, barracks, guard towers, artillerys, guards, security cameras, fences and traps. The game should have some ghouls like in the other fallout games and new weapons, dwellers, new currency, millitary barracks in the vault and new rooms like a room with some security monitors to access the security cameras and have a military grade of security and a lot more things added to the game and please make the game a little less hard.

Running low on supplies!. Hey Bethesda! I love your game and have a recommendation. It is a probably really requested and really needed thing you have to add! Auto-collect/Pause Game feature! Auto-collect would be a feature that automatically turns on which (obviously) collects your supplies for you while AFK. Or, the Pause Game feature would like freeze your game in time until you come back this could be automatic by the way. Please add this because when I am doing something and can not get on I get on maybe an hour later. I get on and I find my supplies at zero! Bethesda please add this feature! (Also please don’t make these an “Pay To Have” type of thing)!

Bug report. I already posted this bug report two days ago, but I cannot find it in the list of reviews, so either you deleted it, or something went wrong. My first report was rather long, and I don’t have the muse to write that again, so this time it’s much shorter. Please reach out to me for further details. Due to some bug in the game the counter (normally at most 4 hours) for watching a promotional video was set to over 930 hours yesterday. Since then it’s slowly reducing to zero… Those videos are fun, and I like the bonus boost it gets, which I’ve now missed out on already for a day — and I will never get them again.^^ So please correct this for my account and fix the bug that produced it. Use assertions to check for reasonable times! Happy to upgrade my review to 5 starts after the bug is resolved. … it finally got resolved!

Option to turn off mating. Hey Bethesda. I’ve got 200 dwellers in my vault. But when I have a male and female dweller in the lounge they still mate. Just suggesting there should be an option to turn breeding off. Plus it would be nice if you could bump it from 200 to 250 or 300 dwellers. I got a dweller from a lunchbox that’s standing out front of my vault. In order for me to get rid of that dweller is I gotta evict one from my vault to let that one in. And I don’t wanna have to do that every time one comes by. Please and thank you

Fair review. This game could be so much better. Don’t make it so hard at the beginning. Attacks are to frequent, and sometimes to difficult. It should be a game you can play over and over. Make the map a random entity in some parts and ways so ppl don’t get bored. Maybe even a death spirit (‘lose for sure enemy’) took keep luck a factor. Why did ppl play fallout original pc game so much, because of the variation. Ppl like to aspire to be the best too. If the base had a lot of underground expansion.. and it needs eggs. Most games have eggs for fans. And everyplace needs a pizza oven, buy one for the office. I’m sure u have a coffee machine? Or even a $2 Coffee dispenser! But pizza is better. A slice of pizza a day keeps covid at bay. My mother always said that when I was growing up, nobody even hear of covid in the 1990’s….

I would like to see this added. If dwellers get to much rads they turn into ghouls Fallout Pip Boy app compatible with Fallout shelter and your vaults in it To be able to get pip boys in game from quests and objectives and equip them to dwellers To make an avatar for your overseer. To make brotherhoods that other vaults could join To drag kids to rooms and have them talk to everyone else and not just themselves To make legendary dwellers (Preston Garvey Butch etc) available from quests To make custom guns from Parts and Junk To explore real places from fallout 4 in the wasteland To play daily mini games on your pip boy To have a spinning wheel of the wastes game To have a daily challenge to get pip boys dwellers mr handy s and lunchboxes To be able to build RobCo Plant rooms in your vault To have a weekly tournament. Who is the greatest Dweller of all?!?!? To get achievements for hard feats The harder the feat the greater the reward! To be able to upgrade and repair Mr Handy’s (Unlocks with RobCo Plant Room) And last a weekly customisable survey for the dwellers of your vault to answer. Read their answers. The better the feedback the Greater the reward (Feature unlocks with Overseers Office Room)

Dwellers keep disappearing!. Edit: I’m having an issue with dwellers disappearing, they’ll be there when I leave the game but when I come back they’ll be gone - they’re not even wondering around. Would be good if you could either buy junk at a weekly market or something with in game money or if you could send out your dwellers with a task of finding specific items - like if you need a shovel for a weapon. There are also way too many weapons, there should be just one weapon at one level of accuracy not several of the same weapon at different levels

Update please. This game is five years old and when l first played it l didn’t even see a update , just can more stuff to the game please like amour or guns or even more dwellers your choice , all l’m saying is pleaseeeee more updates!!!, also please add multiplayer l was gonna ask my sister if she wants to play with me but l remembered that’s no multiplayer soo please add that , also please make those scorpions weaker l sent three of my most strongest dwellers but after three rooms that my dwellers went through two died already and even the ghouls that’s the most thing l hate about this game l mean like game is alright it’s just the enemies are toooo strong so fix that to

Fun game. Love this game I have been playing it for a year now. One thing I think is a bug, when you get resources from opening a lunchbox it doesn’t count towards your current objective. I have the collect water objective and got water from a lunchbox but it didn’t do anything for the objective. I’m pretty sure it used to count when I first started playing. Also even though I’ve been playing for a long time the only thing keeping me playing is starting new Vaults. Would be amazing if there was some more end game content like raiding other vaults or maybe even player vs player? That would be sick! Thank you.

Great game, some suggestions to make it better. The dweller list leaves a lot to be desired. First, it’d be super useful to be able to see the weapon that the dweller has equipped. Noting major, just a little icon next to the dweller’s head, next to or above the icon that shows their assigned pet. Being able to see the armour that the dweller has equipped, in the dweller list (again, an icon would be plenty) would go s long way. Also, how about researchable room upgrades for the late game? For example, auto-injecting stim packs from the hospital, or automatic turrets for the vault entrance. Things like that. The game is great and I look forward to seeing what comes in the next update!

I love it. Dear Bethesda, I have bought the build your self a pip boy and have fallout 4,76 And shelters, I love this game to the moon and back and will get all the rest of the fallout games, but all I wonder is when will fallout shelter online be released to Australia 🇦🇺, because I have 2 shelters with around 50 dwellers and will day one buy. From a very big number fan not 1 or 2 cos someone else is, thank you Bethesda for all the ideas you have given me thank you.

Best mobile game ever. Honestly I am not into mobile games at all and I lose interest pretty quickly - but not with this game! I keep popping into to see how my vault is doing on a regular basis. There is so much to do in this game like upgrading my dwellers weaponry and maxing out all of their skills one by one, sending some lucky ones out on missions and then being able to pop back in hours later and have that mission readily available to play. It’s a fun game and it’s got lots of longevity if you enjoy playing every now and again.

Great Game. Great fun, but once you have used all your building space it can get a little boring. I think more space needs to be added to the game and increase the max amount of dwellers. Overall it’s really enjoyable. Been playing this on and off for years. I’ve maxed out most of my dwellers attributes and Levels. Mostly just doing quest and trying to get lots of legendary items

Super Annoyed.. The glitches make it impossible to ever keep up with the constant attacks. I send dwellers out on missions and quests, only for them to return empty handed over and over. Explorers will have loads of items in their bar at the bottom and when they return, it all disappears! So my vault is left with no outfits to boost production and no weapons to defend. I even got ripped off a robot on a quest. Then to have 2 death claw attacks in less than 20 minutes?? How is this fair or even possible to play? My shelter has dead bodies everywhere, everyone left alive is miserable, and there’s not enough power, food or water. And there’s nothing I can do about it. It takes away from any fun the game has.

Sick as. I hear a lot of people complain about the gameplay and how hard it is but I love it, after a few resets u finally start to understand how to balance out the game and it becomes amazingly smooth after about the 3-5 attempt. Also the fact that the in-app purchases aren't pushed that was a real game changer Should totally add customisable bots like in the automatron add on, would be nice to find parts during quests and all

Frustrating & infuriating. After man hours of gameplay have no weapons even after roaming the wasteland, have no way to defend from radroach attacks in shelter which wipes out entire population as all they do is stand there an not defend themselves, earn very little coins for rushing jobs as there is no other way to earn coins unless by shear luck you find the mystery man. But need to revive population which dies the very next radroach attack. Sounds like a good game but way too frustrating when getting wiped out after hours of gameplay & not having any defences to deal with the problem... this has happened several times now.. very poor game that doesn’t reflect the original franchise it’s trying to cash on in

A very good suggestion. Just wanted to suggest to the developers that for the rooms in the vault, you could choose weather for them to have power going to the or not. You could implement this by adding a electrical control room or something like that, this room could direct the electricity to certain rooms, this could make the power go down a bit slower. Another thing is that you could make the electrical room over heat when to many rooms are powered or you have to have a certain amount of power to have more rooms or otherwise the more rooms you have the more likely it will shutdown. You guys can figure out what to do with that idea, it would be great to see something like that in the game, maybe it could be a setting to make the game a bit harder. Up to you. Other than that this is a very cool game when you get to know how it works :)

Too many attacks. Would be more enjoyable if it were easier to earn points and less attacks cause I got sick of it because it's to hard to get ahead, but now there are less attacks and I like the rack you can get extra bounds each so many hours cause I only just recently began playing again and less attacks are better you need to beable to get ahead otherwise it feels like theirs no point.

Fallout best ever. Are you play this game two years back and it was a pretty good game and it's so much fun and so much more than you can use one of the best games that I have ever played I'd recommend it to everyone in the in a mystery game are you play this game two years back and it was a pretty good game and it's so much fun and so much more than you can use one of the best games that I have ever played I'd recommend it to everyone in the mystery game have fun have fun have fun have fun

AMAZING GAME!. I love this game so much, it’s so hard but that’s why it’s so fun. You know you can mess up at any moment, so you always want to feel safe, but since you’re in a wasteland, you always have to be aware and take risks. It’s cool. But if something bad happens, I know I can just pay my way out with micro-transactions. I HATE micro-transactions and I feel like them being in this game ruins the difficulty. If something goes wrong, just pay and it’ll be fine! Why try and take risks when you could just pay money for everything to be better. Without that, this would be a 5 Star game.

Good game. Pretty good game a few bug/glitches like dragging dwellers to different rooms it bugs out and they don’t go to the room I dragged them too or when I start dragging them the icon your dragging goes crazy and just goes to a random room but it can be worked around by just going to the room you want the dweller in and click on the clipboard but still annoying when getting attacked can trying to drag them around quickly also i get attacked all the time like almost every 5(not exact) the other day I had deathclaws come like 4 times in a space of 10 minutes and just before I started this review I was playing for not that long and I got attacked but raiders gouls and deathclaws like almost straight off the bat but other then that good game

Would rate 0 stars if I could. These are the people responsible for one of my most favourite games shutting down because apparently Westworld copied this game. Let me just say no. I downloaded this game because apparently it was so close that they had to stop Westworld so I thought “well at least I’ll get my fix of that kind of game”. I hate this game. They are not that similar and this version is worse. There’s nothing as good as Westworld was now including this. The people who made it so Westworld has to shut off are just money grabbing greedy gits. If you’re going to force someone to shut down you would want to make sure your game is great but it’s not.

BUFF THIS. OMG. This is a great, beautiful, well made game. I love how it’s so different to all the other fallouts, but still so similar! I only have one problem with it. The enemies are really REALLY weak, and so when you fight them on quests it feels very unsatisfying when they die. I don’t even have a level 50 dweller yet and this game is already MUCH too easy. It would be greatly appreciated if you buffed all enemies (yes, including deathclaws ;)) on quests. This game is great and it could be so much better if it was harder. Thanks :).

Early Game Good, Late Game Boring. Hi all, I got this game when it came out and I have had heeps of fun managing and running a vault. The early game is basically a survival simulator with raids and disasters being catastrophic. This keeps the player engaged and actively playing. Although the mid game, 100pop, is still fun, once you send out max special dweller you soon realise what the sell function really is. Late gamer you can send up to 20 super soldiers to retrieve half the wasteland. Then the missions become rollovers with your death squads in power armour and MIRVs. Even the supposedly “hard” ones are easy with 20 stims with the only want rewards being pets or lunch boxes. I would really like to see harder end game as you can basically do anything but nothing as well. The mission become boring and repetitive with the only unique one being the gauntlet and its questions. Fun start to hook you in but drops off as time continues.

Please fix bugs. One of the toughest dwellers My dweller keep getting sadder that nothing keeps him happy

Unbeatable mole rats. One single unkillable mole rat killed all my high level dwellers. Took three relaunches of the app for the glitched mole rat to disappear, only to be replaced by all mole rats fully healed. Then i try to salvage and build up and get hit by 2 x roaches and 3 x raiders? Only to find out from Reddit that the unkillable mole rats is a 5+ year problem?Deleted app immediately, which is sad cuz i was enjoying the game.

No crossplay and poor UI. Can’t see dwellers real HP, can’t play on iOS and pick up on PC. Can’t target injured dwellers to heal them when they run around like fools. No implemented UI to overcome this. 2 stars off for no crossplay for obvious money grab reasons. 1 star off for obfuscated UI for stats and I would take a 4th away for purposely making the dwellers freak out and a pain to target to heal. 1 star isn’t justice. It takes a while to get to where this matters. So if you plan on investing your time into this game, just go in realizing that the devs leave things out or put things in to purposely screw you over. Play the PC version. Hunting and pecking at this on an iPhone or iPad gets tiresome and frustrating when trying to heal your dwellers and obfuscating the real HP of the dwellers is just stupid and forcing people to breed a L1 them max the E stats before leveling, leaving you to kick every other dweller out because you can’t know their actual stats.

It’s great but... I keep losing energy, food and water so fast and I rush every room and everyone’s getting radiation I’ve added people there but nothing helps so maybe I’m gonna get more people to work in energy

Broken quests. I never get my rewards after finishing a quest, want this fixed soon and for my promised mr handy and lunchboxes

Game sucks. Don’t get this hunk of dog game you walk away for 1 minute your whole base is infested with mole rats and roaches I worked so hard everyday now everyone’s dead if the creators see this I hate you

Fallout Shelter is great!. It really is a great game. Simple mechanics for running your vault, you can actually take your vault dwellers for quests, the aesthetic of the fallout series through cartoons! I’ve played and replayed this game several times, loads of fun! I highly recommend it, download now!

Terrible choices for such a great idea. It’s a good game but you can’t punish people for not playing your (game) take out the death claws or I’m quitting nobody wants to play a game were you build everything up and then have it to be tear down in front of your eyes!!!

pretty good. i really like this game, and i dont get alot of crashes like everyone else, overall a good experience

Addicting. Our whole family plays this game now. We have so much fun planning out where who will go, who will make babies and fighting raiders!

Great game. Love the game, fully maxed out multiple vaults on survivor. With that said, would love to seem more in game content, everything is stale, and progression is just waiting around after a certain point. Would be much better to have interesting mission, or real questing. Also please fix the fact that opening the app stops all music on iOS, this has been a problem forever and I just wanna check on my vault while listening to stuff…

Things won’t die. I thought the game was pretty sweet but then I had I radroach that just would not die and killed all my people you can’t recover from glitches like that

Perfect game. Game could use an update :)

Boring now. No updates to make it more fun. Boring

Bugs and glitch!. I’ve been experiencing glitches where I can’t watch the fast forward video for 40,000 hours and it takes a month to craft something... I don’t think is supposed to be like that but I can’t report but in game so :/

Fun. I love that characters from the fallout series make a return

My fiancée says I’m *too* addicted. Absolutely love this game. It’s purely brilliant. And of course, after saying that, I do have a suggestion; It would be awesome if we were able to move the rooms around instead of having to destroy and rebuild.. you don’t realize how unorganized your shelter is when all rooms are unlocking and you’re trying to build your vault up! Thanks Bethesda for creating this amazing game ! 👌🏼

Great mechanics, poor business model. What I can say is that the gameplay elements in this game are great however, it has some built in barriers that you can pay your way past. This game could be vastly improved by abandoning its micropayment model in favour of a base cost game with better pacing.

Need’s change. I love this game so much but after you reach 200 dwellers, there is nothing to do after or not to much thing to do. Please mane some update, like have new room new thing to discover more dwellers capacity i dont know but it willw be really fun. Please Bethesda do an update

Fun for a day or two but then becomes a boring slog.. Starting out is a lot of fun but after a very short time it becomes repetitive, slow, boring, and just plain garbage. I love fallout and I love the cutesy dwellers and all but there has not been significant updates since the game came out almost a decade ago. Collecting different outfits, weapons, and rooms is tedious depends on rng, and takes forever. The devs should be ashamed in themselves because this game had so much potential to grow and expand on different things but no. Too lazy and short attention spanned to read a few sentences: boring repetitive garbage don’t waste your time.

Great game. Y’all should make a family tree for arachnid the dwellers! It would be cool to see who came from who and their names

Are the reviews fake ?. Bad

Amazing Game!. I love this type of survival games. You have to manage your dwellers and that is nice.

Death claw attack. Already struggling bam death claw attack just got done with a death claw attack well here’s another one pal

Fix the bug or whatever you would call it for not being able to play music when you open the app. Love the app, gets frustrating at times but that how it goes. There are a few bugs in the game like the un-killable mole rate, etc but the one main issue I have with the game is whenever you have music playing you can’t open the app since it will stop all the music your playing on iOS, would love for that to be fixed since playing music while gaming is a big must. Thanks if you do look into it and try to fix it.

Best game for iOS. Addicting, fun and a worthwhile app. Doesn't "force" you to buy things as the game allows you to earn collectibles rather easily.

Disappointed. Love the game, it’s addictive. But there a bug that keeps me from exploring. I tried everything! Hoping that an update will fix this

Grate game. It is so fun

Not working on iOS 7.1.2. App is not running on iOS 7.1.2 please fix this bug. -black screen and crash

Eh. I personally love the game, but it need a lot of attention...

Trach. This is so trash don’t get it 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

Low rating to address crashes. Since updating to iOS 11, the game freezes then crashes.

Funny. Funny

?. I don’t understand this game at all.. add rooms and wait... and wait and wait. Literally the most boring game in existence. Unless I’m not understanding the point. Zzzzz snoozer.

More in game content. After 3 year it would be nice to see some more in game content. The game is getting old as it has changed much since release. Better rewards, more rooms, quests with more depth would be a good start Over all fallout shelter is great game just could really use an expansion

Good. Good

Death claws. Hurray more death claws. You spend more than a day away and you’re be gifted with death claws. Enough to go around for all your dwellers

Please do not download. The dame rat got glitch it wipe out all my people by one last rat, I’ve been use over 10 people with weapon to try to kill that rat, and it kill all of them, I’m so done with this game, I tried so hard and this game destroyed my day.

Best Mobile Game (in my opinion). As a Proud Fallout fan this game is amazing I love looking after my Vault Dwellers 😄👍🩷

No bugs!!!. Fallout shelter is the best tycoon strategy game ever

STUPID DEATH CLAWS. MY VAULT HAS BEEN ATTACKED BY DEATH CLAWS 13 TIMES AND I HAVE ONLY HAD THE GAME FOR THREE DAYS. I love fallout but this is just bad the amount of times I have been attack by only death claws is just insane and the only times my vault dwellers are happy is when bottle and capy are there

Fun fallout spin-off!. The gameplay loop is simple, just managing a vault with people who have different stats. But when you unlock more stuff, It starts getting more complex and engaging then before! The micro-transactions in this game don’t feel forced, they allow you to get more materials and items while not feeling required! 5/5 Very nice game!

Help!. i can’t login the game since this morning? Since a couples days ago there is no sound !

Very interesting concept, horrible mechanics. The overall concept and art style fits very well, unfortunately, it’s riddled with horribly designed mechanics. It can get astonishingly bad. I’d love to play this game more but combat is so horribly thought out and implemented, so incredibly clunky and unpolished. Very embarrassing.

Unbalanced enemy raids. I am a about a week into this as a casual player and it was ok, seemingly matched enemy that attacked and when I went out on missions. But in the last few days I have been attacked 4 times by almost unstoppable groups of deathclaws who rampage through the bunker killing almost everyone. So now all resources go to being able to afford trying to revive most of them so they can get back to work making power/water/food before it happens again. The few ok equipped folks I have are no match for them, I enjoy a bit of a challenge, but this looks like it is going to be a stupid cycle of barely getting most people back before getting wrecked daily. Great job Edit: dropped to 1 star After posting this and going back to the game to start working on fixing the carnage of the previous attack, I got raided again by another group of deathclaws. I had only been able to revive a few folks from the last rampage. . I played all the xbox versions, and Im fine with pay to play concept as I know devs need to recoup costs, but at this rate you would need to drop a ton of cash daily just to equip and revive your dwellers. Impractical and futile. No point playing Another edit - I would give a negative rating if I could Another deathclaw attack, I still hadn't fully recovered grom last one. Most dwellers killed again. Done with it.

Death claw attack. You want to login for 1 min to check something? Death claw attack? Just finished a death claw attack? Bam how about a death claw attack. You get a death claw attack! Everyone gets a death claw attack

Fallout. It’s addictive and even more fun with the updates and new gear and robots into

I lost my stuff. Lost my old acc and all my purchases I did like this game

Good game. Need to put in power armour in it

Amazing Game. The only flaw with this game is once you get max shelter there really isn’t a lot you can do past that but getting there is very enjoyable but would like to see some sort of update to raise the max level

★★★★☆. I would give this game a four and one half star rating if I could but sadly that's not an option. I hope that you guys are proud of the game you've created and that you won't take the one less star as a bad thing, I just feel like there is room for improvement. Something that's missing is that this game doesn't have enough outfit options since it'd be nice to have outfits that had 5+ in the buffs that are attached. I also feel that a new room option could be nice. I don't feel that you are money hungry so that is good. I feel that the asking price for items is pretty fair too. I like that this game has a lot of fun and gameplay to offer. With silly quests and funny dialogue that is exchanged between dwellers. I also approve of the level of challenge the game brings. Maybe there should be an optional hard mode for dedicated fans? I think that's a good idea. Overall I think people should play this if they like games that let you be the overlord of a mini community and take care of their needs.

Lotta fun, but glitches. The game is a lot of fun, and has a lot to do and collect. I love this game, except for the glitches it has. For example, when I play it, it often has the audio completely cut out. I have observed that this only happens when I leave for several hours, but I don’t know why this happens, but it is a relatively easy fix. The glitch that I have an actual problem with is that when I collect dwellers from the wasteland or quests, I do not receive the loot I get. Which is very annoying. I had recently just done a quest where I got a golden retriever pet, which I was looking forward to using. But when I collected it, it did not show up in my inventory at all. Along with everything else from the quest. This has happened several other times, but not every time. It happens only about 50% of the time, and when it does it seems to occur only at the most inconvenient possible times. Other than that, and a few other glitches the game is great.

I would recommend this app to friends. :). For starters, I love this app. It’s so fun to play when you need something to pass the time (or when you need an excuse to get away from people, lol). I love how it’s not like super easy and you actually have to work to get stuff done. It’s also amazing how many references there are to the console versions. The animations are amazing and I love how you guys added the rats in the empty rooms it really helps with making it feel like the dwellers are living (in the game sense, obviously). I’ve noticed a problem though. So, recently I haven’t been able to buy some things or sell them. It’s not all the time and usually once I close and reopen the app it will stop but it’s kinda bugging me. I was wondering if you guys would fix that in the next update? P.S. What is G.O.A.T.? Does that stand for “Greatest Overseer of All Time” ‘cause if it does then my dwellers are awesome!

Great game but I have had some very annoying bugs. First thing I have to say is this is a great game but there is a slight issue that has happened I think twice and it is very annoying and frustrating. I did a bunch of quests and got a good weapon(relentless raider sword) and I was really happy. But the game has an issue where it will randomly un equip weapons and change them for other weapons you get during quests and this happened. Then after this while I was trying to enter my vault it randomly sold/deleted the weapon. I did not touch it or anything I hit sell common items(this weapon does not fall under that category because it is legendary) then hit collect and for some reason the weapon is now gone! I spent a lot of time on the quests that I ended up getting this weapon on and now I feel like I wasted tons of time. If they patch these two glitches I would have no complaints but it is just very very very annoying to spend lots of time getting something and then having it randomly delete.

Can we get some updates?. I love this game, I’ve been playing it for a while and it’s so fun seeing your vault grow and thrive even through the times where you don’t have enough of something and your dwellers are dying left and right. With that said, where are the updates I’ve been playing this game for upwards of a year and I haven’t seen nor one update! I love this game don’t get me wrong but some more details or cosmetics would go such a far way or even new weapons or clothing! Imagine how awesome it would be to see more of the things you loved from the other games? It would make me so happy if something as little as new dialogue between the dwellers was introduced or if you could see things like radiation storm or verdibirds flying by rather than just a day night cycle in front of your vaults entrance. Anyway I will continue to love this classic game but I would absolutely love it if we got some updates.

Creators please read. I really like this game, however there is a lot of room for improvement. For example as long as a dweller is in a training room they should level up automatically also I hate getting duplicate dwellers like Wes, or legendary dwellers fix this. Also let us customize all vault rooms change colors etc, lunch boxes have to many common junk I personally believe they should have very valuable goodies like more rare items, also can we get open world exploring more things to do after you beat the game it gets pretty boring, more customizable stuff and please keep the cool cartoon like look don’t ruin it . Can we also make it possible to tap a dwellers HP and see in numeric digits their HP. Also before I forget it is foolish to make getting all legendary dwellers so hard I end up getting to many duplicates make hard missions for them if you wish but stop with that random duplicate stuff I’ve played over 700 hours and that random stuff makes me curse the foolish creators be sensible please and thank you.

Was great, now just annoying and frustrating.. App was great, a lot of fun, almost addicting. Now dwellers die at a drop of the hat. What it really seems like is developers weren’t getting the money they wanted and just made the game harder to sell more boosts, packages. It is a fun game and would be willing to pay money, but with the arbitrary cap and no ultimate goal, win of the game, why waste my money. It’s like reading a book with the last chapter missing. How can you produce a game with no ending or ability produce a giant vault so don’t completely waste money on getting bonuses etc. It’s like the developers had a great idea for a game and then went meh okay, done almost; I’d almost guess these were valve developers or took a page out of their gaming manual. Bought several mr. handys and now with the vault at cap, nothing to do but abandon it. What a total waste! I could start another vault within game, but can’t transfer anything between my vaults so what I bought wastes away in the now abandoned vault. Actually now have 3 abandoned 200 cap vaults. Guess will just delete the game and find another. Just stupid, feel so foolish for wasting all this time on this game. Could have been such a great game.

Great game! Some things to add.. Overall this is a great game and is fun and you can play it infinitely but, I have some ideas to add. One is a troop bed the troop bed acts as a housing unit for dwellers that when an raid, mole rat attack, fire, etc. it will send them out to help. You can upgrade it to house more people and when a raider attack starts the can fit in the vault chamber with a lot more people than normal. And number two the body preservation unit where you can store dead dwellers and preserve them. You can reduce the time it takes for them to decompose so it’s more useful but it’s fine. It acts as a storage unit that houses dead dwellers for much longer than normally. They could stay in there in about a week and a half or so. But if a attack or fire or anything happens it may break the chamber and the bodies may fall out. This making them decompose really quick and in about one day. These are just ideas but I feel like it would be a good addition to the game. :)

Great Game. I’ve been playing for a while, and I really enjoy it. Bethesda always does a great job. I only have two complaints. First of all, it would be really nice to choose the amount of an item you want to sell. For instance if you end up with 40 desk fans, and you’re running out of storage but you don’t want to sell ALL of them, instead of having to sell one at a time if there were a pop up that asked how many you want to sell I think that would be very helpful and save some time. The other complaint I have is that for no apparent reason when I logged into one of my vaults today, my Daily Report gave me a 0% F, but my vault happiness was at 89%. I’ve never had that happen before so I went to the app in the App Store to try and find a way to contact the developer about my issue, but could not find a way to contact anyone, so hopefully they will read this and make sure that this issue doesn’t occur again. As long as things run smoothly, I will keep playing!!!

Vault Edit Mode?. The game is great, I’ve been playing it for a few years now, and you guys have been doing a great job giving us new content to keep us interested. I have no doubt you guys will continue to do so, but is it too much to ask for a Vault Edit Mode? I mean come on, what if I wanna switch locations between my Cafeteria and Purification Plant. What if i want to switch some elevators around? I’ve been playing for a few years now (as I stated above) and the same vault layout can get kinda dry... and the fact that I have to move my dwellers out the room, destroy the room, then make the new room, then move the dwellers back, can be really annoying, when you want to add some new layouts to your already maxed out vault. Just an idea I hope you guys might entertain. Also can we please fix this darn dead body bug? I’d love to move some dwellers into my vault entrance but apparently there’s an invisible dead body that’s causing my dwellers’ happiness to go down and get in the way of my 100% happiness. Thanks.

Suggestions for next update. I really like the game but I think the next time you update the game you should put things things like squads so say you have six top dwellers maxed out on everything in your vault and oh no death claws and you get your top six dwellers up there to fight but the death claws break the vault door you only have two guys up there and they die well what you should do is make it to where you can have groups like fighting groups worker groups and so on or you can pick like 5 or six guys and have them be like a backup team just in case like a whole room just got killed you can use your backup team to kill them and I get tired of having to drag dwellers it make my phone glitch so if you can like tap on a dweller and then tap on a room and the dweller will instantly go there that could help me and probably a LOT of other people out so plz fix this and try to make squads possible and I will make that 4 star to a 5 star!

Amazing Game it’s basically if the vaults in Fallout weren’t experiment and actually successful. Love the game, I’m proud to say I’ve spent hours in the game and enjoyed it. The game is amazing and just like the Fallout game series. Yes I’ve heard it crashes and stops working, however, this is not the case for me. But even if it did for me the game is sill so satisfactory I would still play it. You may ask why do you like the game so much, well let me tell you. There is such an immersive gameplay that it absorbs anyone to play the game with the variety of everything really. The weapons and dwellers and even the rooms have great diversity in there abilities and choices. The quests and dialogue in the game is amazing and have me loving it. I also love the core of the game too, it is so great. This is what makes the game five stars, and I guess you can say that’s what makes it S.P.E.C.I.A.L. However this goes without saying but there is room for improvement. Here are some of my thoughts on what could make the game near perfect. Vault lunchboxes are more common,

why?. To be clear I actually like this game but whoever coded it deserves a shallow grave in a rural ditch. For starters if you’ve just begun playing and you need to rush a room, always assume the percent of failure is three times higher than it says it is. The amount of times Ive been low on power or stimpaks and you rush a 15% chance and it fails and radscorpions spawn which have no less than 500 health. No joke when those spawn they usually de spawn because they go through a dozen rooms of dwellers that barely scratch it. Not to mention that you’d think the mechanic for rushing might be more forgiving if you’re rushing a hospital and you have zero stimpaks but not here come the radscorpions! Hope you have 10k caps to revive everyone. Furthermore, why is it that within the first minute of opening the app there is WITHOUT FAIL an attack (usually deathclaw). like i get it that’s part of the game but it gets old. Also, there are multiple bugs that have been in the game for years. sometimes dwellers in the wasteland will have their supplies glitched so you can’t read how many stimpaks they have. and if you scroll through your dwellers in the wasteland in slightly the wrong way the app will crash. Just sad really

Pretty good game... But lots of work... So I just remembered this game bc I’m moving out of roblox.. and so I made a vault but soon discovered that I didn’t have enough resources so I had to think... it was so messed up I made another one. My new vault is actually running pretty smoothly but I had a mini-drout for a while. We were running out of food and water so I made two new rooms. I have two upgraded water treatment plant rooms and two restraunts. That still isn’t enough! I mean I’m living on the edge of resources.. literally! But it’s still all green up on the top but just by a little.. when I’m trying to progress and build more rooms, the electricity I have to have for them goes up... I used to have huge amounts of energy... I even might have to build ANOTHER power plant.. but I think it’s holding up pretty good.. 1st day: 82% 2nd day: 96% 3rd day (today): 84%. Tommorow I’m reaching to have a perfect score of 100% but idk. Thanks for reading and good luck, players! :) YT demonstrations: TimelessKindness_playz

My overall review and problems newcomers face.. All in all fallout shelter is a one of a kind game. Original but fresh concept, unique graphics, tons of content to keep you playing, and new content that keeps players coming back for more. I only faced one problem with this game once I began, and that is the idle mechanics. The problem is you dwellers continue to use supplies even while you aren’t playing. I don’t face this anymore but it can force new players to play in fear of vault dwellers dying. There is also the problem that once your supplies run out, it can be nearly impossible to get them back to normal without the help of a mister handy or two; and since they must be purchased, it can put new players under the impression that you have to spend real money to get past the beginning stages of the game, which has drastically decreased the player count over the last few years. Other than that the game is great and I can’t wait for what the game’s future holds.

Really fun!. Fallout is a GREAT app time killer! Although after a certain point you are just playing to play and not level up, I still quite enjoy this game. I have a few minuscule requests though. 1. Make it a little easier to get/find pets because they’re really helpful, but I do understand that they are meant to be rare. 2. Make dwellers more common in those little lunchbox thingies with the cards(sorry, I can’t remember the name😅) 3. Make it easier to find the hidden man, or give players more time! This one is something I really wanna see, because this little hidden man will appear in a random space in your vault and you get caps when you tap him but you only have a 2-3 seconds. YES I know most of the improvements I hope to see are supposed to be as rare as they are but I think you could make it just a little(🤏) easier on the players!☺️☺️☺️☺️ love the game though!

Deathclaws are an unfair tear down of all resources. I have gotten this game & spent money on this game. Over the years I have enjoyed it and just when I am building up my vault and things are going well ( i always had just spent money on boxes or something) and the deathclaws come through and kill 3 floors of my people. I don’t ever have enough money to revive even half of them, meaning I lose all my outfits and weapons as well, so I will get aggravated with the game and I uninstall it and put it down for a year or two. One day I forget how aggravating it is and I start playing again- I will not do that again if the game stays as awful as it is. You should have more challenge as the game progresses but not to decimate your resources for half of your vault with no way to defend against them (no gun or level seems to kill them) so that you have half of what you have worked for for weeks still remaining in seconds. Until they change that I won’t spend another penny on this game and won’t recommend it to anyone, in fact I will tell them how pointless it is to play this game and warn them not to spend any money on this game! No one should have to spend time and money on a game to have a random attack take out half of what you have built.

Needs an update. Dear Mr Overseer, As your second in command it has come to my attention of some problems that developed in the daily life of the vault. I wish to address these issues here today. 1) Why can’t we not purchase lunch boxes with our caps, I understand the great value these box have so the cost should be also quiet high. I was thinking in the neighborhood of about 75k or more for a lunch box. This should also be the same for the animal carriers since the war has left very few pets still alive. 2) Sending out people into the waste land should not count for food consumed in the vault, nor do you get credit for unlocking rooms while these counts are away. Once these people return to the vault food consumption should rise sharply since our scouts have not eaten a good meal while they were out. 3) The overseers room has been a problem since you have not allow us to assign people to the room fires and rad roaches have been breaking out. All near by rooms get effected since we can not end the problem directly. Please allow me Mr overseer to hire at least 2 assistants to keep the room monitored. They could be limited on one of their specials in order to gain access to the room. Example you must have an intelligence higher than 5 to gain access or in the case of some vaults an intelligent no higher than 5. Thank you for your time sir, I look forward to hearing from you. You vault assistant.

Timer issues \ lousy customer service. The game is entertaining, but I have lowered my rating due to timer issues for the 30 minute skip on wasteland explorations and rewards, and the fact that your customer support team thinks it is beneath them to pass on information to the developers about issues. So I have been referred here. Both timers used reset within a day, then waited until they were used to count down to the next reset again. Then one day it started taking more than 800 hours to reset, doesn’t wait until you use it to go into the next reset timer, and adds more hours. I’m now over 1600 hours for resets and haven’t been able to use either in months! First, I would like to know if this is even being worked on to fix it, or you should just remove it if it can’t be used anymore. Second, someone needs to look up the definition of customer service; how hard would it be to forward the report on to the developers and acknowledge it, rather than push it off on the users for YOUR issue to keep reporting it until it (hopefully) gets to the correct department?!

Good game but.... I liked the game and made it to the 200 dweller cap. I finished all but one quest but when my dwellers returned they were stuck in line behind the dwellers I kept getting in the lunchboxes after I reached max vault capacity. When I tried to bring my dwellers in, it wouldn’t let me because too many people (5) were in line ahead of my dwellers returning from the quest. Sooo...I can’t kick those dwellers out of line and I’m not killing off my trained and high level dwellers inside; I was stuck and irritated so I deleted the whole game. My recommendation would be to either increase the dweller cap or allow us to turn dwellers away that are standing outside the vault. It would also be nice if you could turn off reproduction after you reach the cap. Unfortunately, once you reach the dweller cap, you are just doing quest after quest without much game progression. Not much to do when you have 999,999 caps, trained dwellers, good weapons, and all your resources are full.

I Loved it, until.... I loved this game until those stupid roach things crawled through the floor, and had a session that wiped out half my population. Now I have to wait and build up caps, just to be able to afford my dwellers back. It would be nice to have a hospital or something, just so we don’t have to literally spend all of our caps just to get our dwellers back, which takes days to make those caps back up. I’m most likely going to delete the game if an occurrence like that happens again, so hopefully you guys change the programming or something, in order to make being at your own “base” a little more secure. Even though the purpose of the game is to “survive”, I still think the difficulties at your own “base” should be knocked down a couple of notches. It probably wouldn’t be that bad if there was an easy way to earn caps, like a daily spin or something, but there isn’t, which makes situations like this more frustrating. I mean we already have vault raids, fires, and unnecessary attacks when we want to boost production, and random roach invasions don’t help. Hope this is taken into consideration. Thanks.

Content updates? Lunchboxes 👎. I’ve been playing for about 2 months now, and I’ve reached a plateau with the content. I only have like 3 quests that I can go and I’ve collected all of the themes. I haven’t seen any super mutants, mirelurks, centaurs, or yao guai’s attack the vault although they are mentioned in the exploration log. The most ANNOYING part of this game is that the mole rats are way more dangerous than any other creature, even the deathclaws. Also the lunchboxes are rarely worth the trouble for quest rewards or spending your money, I’ve gotten maybe 2 or 3 decent ones. There’s only 2 models for buildings, red rocket or the same old boring warehouse for every quest or location to explore. I love this game, I’m a fallout superfan but this could really use new quests, rooms to build, creatures in quests or attacking the vault, location models, weapons, more rewarding objectives, and more ways to get nuka cola quantum because it is almost impossible to get in the game. Literally any new content would be greatly appreciated! Now that starfield is out, maybe y’all could put more creativity into this app. I know Bethesda is more capable of regular content updates.

Good game. It’s fun to start fresh every now and then and make a new vault. I like the game a lot. But i want to point out an error that i came across the other day. I had sent dwellers on a quest. They reached the location and when i tried to go in it, the game tried to load and eventually returned to normal vault view. When it did, the cooldown for the advertisement boost and the “Advance 30min” cooldown for dwellers exploring went berserk. It is now showing i have over 2000 days to wait to use either one. The rest of the game still works ok. I have tried everything short of reinstalling the game to try to fix it. Nothing fixes it. I waited a whole day to see if it would reset on its own too and still nothing. The game literally thinks it has nearly 10 years to wait to use the “Advance 30min” and the other add booster. Please look into it and fix asap. I also tried customer support and couldn’t find a fix. Other then this, no complaints. Thank you.

Caps glitch. This is hands-down my favorite mobile game ever. However I have come across an unfair and extremely frustrating glitch. I am currently farming to fully upgrade my outfit workshop which costs 90k caps. For this, my best bet is quest farming. Last week, after my weekly quest I had 34k. Over the weekend when I started the game, I had 21k after spending NO caps. I figured maybe this was because I force quit the game before it saved to the cloud, so last night, after cleaning up my vault and running a couple quests, I left the game in the background with about 28-29k. This morning I wake up and I’m back to 24k. I’ve been playing this game for years; since it came out, even. But if this continues, I will have to finally give up on it as this is extremely unfair and as stated before, even more frustrating. I’m not gonna play a game that’s gonna undo all my farming. I’ve lost almost 20k total from this bug and all I want is for it to stop so I can get back to farming.

I LOVE IT!!!!!. Though I wouldn’t recommend this to kids under 10, it is still a good game. It is a strategic game that for younger kids, it might be hard. I’m not criticizing, but for all adults out there, it will be hard for little kids because they like seeing the people down below talking ( take it from me, plenty of my vaults have died because of it) and so you can’t really collect your resources and so your vault starves. I wish that there will be a tiny notification that tells you if you need to collect a resource that way your vault doesn’t starve. Also, before you go saying no to this, play it yourself and see if it is good for your kids or not. If you don’t believe me, I don’t really care. I’m only 11. But, don’t be going and judging a book by its cover. Read the reviews online because between the ones on the game and online, you will see that they are WAY different than the ones with a game and are usually from parents.

Unnecessary frustration. This would be a fantastic game without for some stupid glitches that are glaringly obvious that any programmer should’ve seen needed to be fixed in the first place. The one I have the biggest complaint is the response to tapping on the screen. You have to do this in numerous situations. For example when you’re trying to shoot an enemy during away missions. When you need to refill the stem packs and anti-radiation medicine when the facility is being attacked. Also when Bottle and Cappy appear. What happens is it doesn’t respond. When it does respond you zoom quickly from a far away view to an extreme close-up most of the time putting you in area of the facility you aren’t even tapping on. By the time you pull away and find out where you were again you’re objective has ended. For example your character is dead because you couldn’t give it a stimpack even though that’s what you were trying to do. Or you lose the money from Cappy’s regardless of you tapping on him. It’s absolutely stupid that you can’t tap on the screen without it zooming in word. You have two fingers which you can spread apart that will easily gain the same results.

I have played this game for years. Easily my favorite iPhone game. I’ve played it since initial release and have never gotten sick of it. They always add new content at just the right time, and for free I might add there. While there are in game purchases (lunchboxes) they are not at all necessary to have fun, but are nice to have especially when they have a half off sale. I myself have bought nearly $100 worth of lunchboxes over the years and different devices I have had the game on. I personally liked when the devs added an optional ad for lunchbox feature. Each time I would watch the ad there would be a cool down after, so you couldn’t spam. I did this three times and I guess they thought I had had enough so they set the cool down to 38,600 hours (4.4 years) that’s really my only qualm with the game but it is still easily five stars.

Great game but could be a lot better. I really enjoy wasting time by playing this game. I’ve always been a fan of the fallout series so it’s cool to have something on my phone to play. I just wish you could edit rooms already built by relocating them instead of having to spend money to destroy and rebuild. I’ve already spent to build it one time I shouldn’t have to spend double just to move it somewhere else. Most other games once you place something you can always go back and edit them for aesthetic reasons and mainly for this game strategic reasons. The beginning of the game didn’t explain well enough that placing rooms is a big strategic plan to producing the most resources as well as putting them in smart places. At the beginning you’re rushing trying to build everything you need to keep up the resources needed so you didn’t get time to think it thru as much. Plus later on you can get Mr. Handy and it makes more sense to put him places to collect but if you placed something like storage on a lvl with power and water it doesn’t make him the most efficient because he ends up wasting time going thru the storage without anything to collect. Overall, I really like the game and I’ve ended up spending more actual money on the game than I thought I would, so you’re welcome developers lol. I just wish there was an edit option rather than a destroy and rebuild at increased price option. Apologies for grammar, I didn’t feel like going back and proofreading lol.

Not really a hater. This game kinda annoys me because of how hard the game is I can’t keep a vault for 1 month that’s kinda sad. like I understand the physics of the game it’s just kinda hard I might just play the actual games for my Xbox because I don’t really like games that you have to wait for. But I love the fallout series the stories the Dark messages about most vaults and stuff it all made sense to me. But this game is kinda like a DIY vault cuz you are making your own vault cool right. But my final thing is I got to be honest fallout New Vegas is one of the best games I have ever played because it is different your not born in a vault and your not sent to a vault it gots a cowboy look to it now why I am talking about this is because you should add some like of the some what of the same locations like the giant dinosaur in the town of Novac in fallout new Vegas or some locations like towns people you can actually trade with that you can get an choose like what guns you are going to sell. Lastly is it possible to get twins at birth in your game I am just saying if it is then is it only a 0.1% chance of having one please I got to know.

Great game overall. This is honestly an amazing game. I’ve been obsessed with growing my vault bigger for several weeks now. The only problem is that now that I have about 60 people in my vault, there are CONSTANT death claw attacks. I read some tips about how to minimize this, such as turn off the broadcasting room, don’t let people in and out, etc. But this is very inconvenient: the radio room brings me new people, I have to do quests to get new supplies, and I have to send people out to explore and bring home supplies. So naturally, I’m constantly attacked. Every time I’m attacked, I use all of my stimpaks and someone almost always dies. I used to revive them but now I just let them die to preserve my supplies. All of the other mutants aren’t nearly as bad, I can normally handle them. But death claws are definitely stronger and, in my opinion, wayyy too overpowered. I mean, they almost killed two of my people that had power armor and guns that were 6+ damage. Otherwise, this is a very great game and I definitely recommend it!

Awesome game. I’ve played this since it came out. Before they had outside quests. You can play without paying. Once in a while when they have a sale I do pay just to keep show my appreciation. It is time consuming but awesome not a pay to win game they don’t force you to win or to pay to advance. At first it’s hard you need to keep things balanced so go slow make sure you build up money and stats. You can I do say again you can relocate the rooms but you need to pay with the caps that you get and start the room over but it’s okay caps are very easy to get doing missions when I first played it it was very difficult at first. Train all of your people make sure guards are up stairs in all three rooms with the best guns for intruders. I’m still having fun with this game. I do like it on the tv on Xbox one better just because it’s a bigger screen and it’s easier to move the people around.

Amazing game. I wish that the game srsly had four man teams and we could see a multiplayer update one day but even tho I am and ordinary person I don’t understand how it works completely but I already know you Game devs have to work out the bugs and think of ideas for future games but I am just saying a few new updates to the game so I am not bored out of my mind ( I have a ton of Mr. Handys collecting stuff and the time to reach a quest kills me! ) I am only asking for extra things to do instead of wait collect and wait again and I don’t even have enough rooms for more dwellers so maybe add more rooms or have events were every player can scout out a different Vault ( Other players vaults is what I mean ) and explore them maybe do some trades or attack them would be fun and just something to do so I don’t have to wait for my other dwellers to get to a quest and not be bored senseless would be amazing!

Good game. I love this game, can’t say much about it that I don’t like except for one thing: I find myself closing the game and avoiding it for days because I’m sick of having to constantly zoom in and out on my tiny phone screen because incidents and raider/deathclaw attacks keep happening, which of course automatically pans the camera to that room or the vault door. It’s sooooooo annoying. I gave up on trying to organize or decorate my vault, arrange my dwellers or do anything but collect resources because as soon as I start enjoying the game, I have to start dealing with the camera whipping around on me and showing me crap I don’t care about. My dwellers are strong enough now that I don’t have to interfere with that stuff anymore, so for me being able to turn off the automatic screen panning would be absolutely great. Otherwise, I guess this will just be another one of those games I used to love that gets dusted off occasionally in an office waiting room.

Don’t wait another 5 years…. I would love to see even more updates. This game is more popular than Fallout 76, (you guys know I’m telling the truth). What about having an online clan? Raid other peoples vault together. I would also love more surprises. Like you log on and find a letter that there is a spy in your vault. After questioning different people, you catch one in a lie. Remember how awesome Fallout 3 and Vegas was? What about choosing 2-3 options for you character to make choices in the game? Choices that effect the output of the resources. “I really want to impress Amy” 1. Give her a stimpack. 2. Give her a radaway. 3. Do nothing. Each choice will effect something. 1. Amy loves you but the resources went down. 2. Amy is offended and leaves vault. 3. Resources double. Whatever something like this would be sick. I’ve played this several times durning the years and would desperately love to see this sucker updated with more and more stuff.

Meh.. This game would be fun if it wasn’t so frustrating tryin to drag the screen all the time. Every time there’s a fire or mole rats I try to pull people to the room but they are too slow and the fire or mole rats spread and kill everybody too fast. They killed all my players with guns and high upgrades and now I have to make tons of money to bring them all back. I wish they would add pictures of characters on the side and let you just pull the characters image to a room instead of dragging the map back and forth in search of capable players to go handle such instances. They could setup similarly to sims so you could click on a players image and send them to do a task. They should make it so you can choose a player from a list you can scroll through. Then you could drag the player image to the room, and automatically send the player running. I’m sick of sending a bunch of people to a room and then when they finally arrive the fire or rats have moved to a different room. Then there is just people standing around doing nothing. Or at least make it so you can assign players to go fight or put out fires when they happen.

Great, solid game but it can use more. In the previous reviews I saw, I couldn’t agree more on organizing your bases and have the option to click an outside dweller and assign him to a place without dragging. The game should have both options where players can either assign by clicking or dragging. I’ve bought a few things in support of the game because I’m a huge fan of Fallout, but once you by something it seems to advance you far into the game where you simply get bored after a while. * Adding new stuff like having a map and being able to explore key areas we can choose from. Also having the idea of going to shops just like Diamond City would add more interests. The missions/quests get repetitive so it would be nice to see a change up in those. And lastly just adding new types of rooms would be pretty neat. Possibly a Mr. Handy building room? There’s a lot of other ideas that can come out of Mr. Handy rather than get resources. But overall the game is put together very well and the whole speed of the game is just right.

Love the game, but 2 suggestions. I love this game. I have been playing it forever and it’s my go to game. However, I have one suggestion that would make me love it even more. I really wish that themes would only change one room at a time instead of all of them. You can collect all the recipes, but can’t use them all at once. I’d like to have a Minuteman diner AND an institute diner AND a Railroad diner, etc, etc. When I finished my first theme I thought you could change just one at a time, but it changes all of them. :( Its something minor but I would really love to be able to change the themes one room at a time. Another complaint I have is that I feel like attacks happen too often. I’m in survival mode, so I get there will be a lot, but there have been times where I can’t even go like 45 seconds between attacks. So I wish there could be a little bit more time between attacks. But other than those two minor things, I absolutely love this game!

Difficult to control but addicting. It can be hard to select dwellers, especially during attacks. You can perfectly place your finger on a dweller and nothing will happen. It’s just a matter of doing it repeatedly and hoping for he best. Your dweller may die simply because the game wouldn’t let you select your dweller to heal them. Luckily you can revive dwellers, but that is a loss of caps due to the game’s unresponsiveness. When you click a room and open the list of dwellers in there, you cannot select a dweller from that list to heal them. This would be a good fix. The list is already there so it’s just a matter of implementing the ability to select dwellers from the list. Another problem is when you build an overseers office the game forces you to start a mission without any warning. I just had my dweller give up immediately once they got there because I didn’t have time/wasn’t ready for a mission. Besides that I love the game! It’s fun, addicting, challenging, and has no ads.

Great game. I used to play this a long time ago (when it first came out). It was good back then and it’s still good today. I began from scratch since I wasn’t able to back up my data, which wasn’t a problem at all. It allowed me to experience the game all over again. Overall, Fallout Shelter is pretty fun and entertaining. However, after unlocking almost every room, there isn’t much left to do. I’m currently at population 85 and I think I’ve almost finished the game. Quests are exhilarating, but short. More content would definitely improve the gameplay. I would be thrilled to continue playing. Once I unlock the last building, I might uninstall the game unless there’s more to do. Multiplayer or battles against other vaults could result fun, yet it may be chaotic if the match playing is unfair/rigged. Anyways, I definitely recommend Fallout Shelter. Once I’m playing, time flies…

Perfect little app. I have logged around 300 hours on this app. It is challenging, especially at first, but there is so much room to grow. I've rebuilt my vault twice and am in the process of rebuilding it a third time. After a certain point, there really isn't any more growth you can do; all your characters have maxed out SPECIAL training and your weapons and armor are legendary. However, I really appreciate that everything in game can earned just by playing the game a few minutes here and there over several months. It is not pay to win, although I have spent at least $60 on pets and Mr. Handys (The pet that changed the game for me provided +3 Child Specials). This game is fun and relaxing once you figure out how to handle the constant Ghoul/Deathclaw/Raider attacks. Tip: Equip your best weapons and gear to the toons defending your vault and the first two rooms! This will help prevent Deathclaws from getting deep into your vault and ravaging it.

Less bugs, less issue, needing more content. Fun gameplay of managing resource, intertwine with dark humor dialogue. Dev team took in the review and actually fix performance/ gameplay issues, which is very nice. However, the game is still lacking in late game, where you unlocked all the stats training, it becomes very repetitive room demolition/ rebuild/ upgrade cycle, definitely need more content there. Also, character stats are never fully explained. If you actually sit down and do the math, then you'll know what each SPECIAL stats do in the waste; there is also stat usage for rooms: strength is needed substantially early when you start room expanding, while Endurance sit at (almost) no use, completely opposing late game with coming Nuka bottler. All the while, charisma seems to be very frequent spawn stat for babies by high charisma parents, but there isn't actually much use for charisma at all out side of spawning more dweller (which means you get a bunch of breeder that going to need 2 days at the gym before going to the game room, out of your current breeders); a good fix would be seeing child "mutate" from their parents stats, rather than imprint with the charisma. Also, give some use for the storage room dwellers. No exp, no happy retaining, no positive impact at all other than capable of storing 75 items is very very underwhelming. Edit: this is the 3rd time i reinstall this game. Overall, it's still fun early, and still lackig late game

Hard challenges no reward. I get so excited when i finally have more than one lunchbox challenges to complete, i just collected 14 rare outfits and 14 rare weapons at the same time, i was supposed to receive two separate lunchboxes , but no after taking a week to complete these i only received one lunchbox and it contained my second repeat vault dweller and my 6th ghost costume. Its an even bigger joke when the one time i bought any lunchboxes on sale they only contained resources and nothing to write home about, i have also completed quests that should have rewarded me A lunchbox and i am not receiving them at the end of some quest. Too bad the Modders that are responsible for making your other games playable cannot fix this one for you. Instead of sitting in an office doing nothing but making empty promises and actually put time into developing your games people would actually respect Bethesda but this company will always remain a greedy joke like every other failing gaming company. One game a decade and a lazy mobile game will not keep your players coming back your will be left in the past and forgotten about the TV show will probably just be a complete slap to Obsidians lore just sellout already.

Surprisingly enjoyable. This is a lighthearted little activity center of a game. I went into it just curious. I don’t play the idle games much. And in a way this is just another one of those. But it’s got a lot of stuff to do. At first, you’re building your underground bunker and balancing the people vs production, etc. Then you can start sending people out of quests. The quest chains take longer and longer, and I’m sure they start really tempting you to pony up for speed-ups. I’ve got two groups out on quests, and neither one of them will be there until tomorrow. And then I’m sure it’ll take them forever to return, as well. Some of these games try my patience enough and I’ll just walk away. We’ll see if it gets to that point. But for now there’s cute smiling cartoon characters in a post-apocalyptic world, fighting radioactive monsters, and I’m having a blast.

This Game Is an Amazing F2P. While I am an avid fan of the Fallout series and universe in general it is not a necessity to play the game. Reminiscent but not like Tiny Towers, it is a building simulation game; a genre of gaming I love. The game itself offers a variety of things to do such as focusing on where settlers are placed to be of optimal use, resource management, and, eventually, questing. The latter of which you can do in order to get weapons, components, and various loot (don’t worry, there are other ways you can get those as well). What makes Fallout Shelter different from F2P games is that while there are in game purchases available they are not a necessity for this game. You can play without ever having to rely on the system as the same purchases can be obtained through completing objectives or doing the aforementioned missions. If you would like to purchase items then that is your prerogative but, again, not a necessity. It why I enjoy it as much as I do and I would recommend it to anyone who is a Fallout/build sim. fan.

4 year old bug still not fixed.. I only just started playing and very quickly i found a problem. So, periodically, random people will show up outside your vault door hoping to be let in, except there’s a few with bad stats that I DO NOT want. So obviously I did not let them in. Well, it’s been a few days and they still haven’t gone away as I assumed they would and I cannot seem to find a button to “turn them away”. So I looked up how to turn them away… and apparently not only can you not turn them away, they will wait there indefinitely. And that post was from 4 years ago, and that has STILL NOT BEEN FIXED?? Apparently the only way to get rid of them is to accept then inside (even though like I said I don’t want to) then send them outside to “explore” until they die. So yea… many players have already quit because of this bug and it seems like they have no intention of fixing it or ever updating this game for that matter. Just be prepared for a dead game.

Still playing it, still loving it. Are super mutants ever coming to this game, Bethesda? What about killer robots, dogs, insects? The game could also use some new dungeon skins. There’s already tons of outfits and weapons, so we’re more than good on that front. This game deserves its five star rating because it genuinely is a good game. I wish it would update to include content from Fallout 76 and other previous installments in the franchise. Is there anything you guys could add to make the Theme room a bit more useful? Once you’ve crafted all the themes it becomes a useless space. Is there any chance of reworking the Mysterious Stranger? Once your vault gets really big it’s next to impossible to find him. Another complaint is the crafting times, they don’t seem to countdown in real time. I’ve crafted Legendary weapons/armor that say six days only to have it take even longer. What’s going on with that? Here’s to hoping this game gets a second coming, too many clones out there trying to steal this games thunder.

Good but many bugs. The game itself was really nice however sometimes when you’re trying to drag the characters into other rooms it will log out and a green outline will appear on the side of the screen that you cannot move or interact with and then you have to keep clicking the characters also sometimes when you click the character to drag it into another room it won’t register in the green outline will show up but you won’t be able to move it anywhere sometimes it will randomly zoom in and zoom out while you’re trying to move characters and while you’re moving character sometimes the screen won’t slide to other rooms like you need it to the time Frame on the ads for prizes is also kind of messed up because even though it’ll say that you have an hour left if you don’t care if you don’t keep the game running it will make it say that you still have an hour even though that it is already been an hour the game itself works really well and it’s really good and fun to play

Fatally flawed interface. This game is fundamentally really fun. But do yourself a huge favor and play it on PC. They did not put enough time, thought, or effort into the mobile controls here. They’re a frustrating mess. Dragging a dweller around glitches out half the time and takes forever. There is no good way to manage dwellers’ outfits, just the painstaking process of tapping them all individually to see what they have. And when a attack is happening you have no way to pause! That is NOT GOOD for a mobile game! They are short at the beginning but later attacks can take 15 minutes! If I have that kind of time I’m not using it to play a mobile game! This type of game is for short intervals, but it fails at that purpose once you are big enough. Devs need to put more thought into how players actually interact with the game, if the interface is not fun to deal with, doesn’t matter how good your game is.

Great Game However. There’s a lot going for the game, I love it however there’s a bug/glitch that happened to me with the wasteland. It doesn’t collect anything nor do dwellers collect CAPS. All dwellers do is die out sometimes, notice how I said sometimes, I sent a dweller bout for 5 days with no stimpacks and the dweller did not die, in the log it said the expedition just begun. This is very frustrating cause it’s not just one vault. It’s all of my vaults, if this issue could be fixed ASAP it would be greatly appreciated. Now on to the good stuff. The game has lots to do and collect, I spent about 2 weeks working on rearranging my vault and time crafting weapons and armor and it’s great and loads of fun, there also are quests which are great considering there are new quests to complete. The quests rewards can be a bit unrewarding at the beginning but as you progress the rewards are great. Overall I highly recommend this game for any fallout fan or someone looking for a great building game. Thanks for reading.

Yes and No. This game is a ton of mindless fun. Much of the activity is pretty hands off it’s nice to be able to log in every few hours and just collect energy or update characters. The occasional hazards are usually fun too, however external hazards like ghouls deathclaws and raiders attack far too frequently even when not exiting the vaults and rad scorpions tunnel from unoccupied room to unoccupied room lasting too long and completely depleting your energy which wouldn’t be a problem if the game allowed you enough dwelling space to occupy every room but it does not limiting you to only 200 dwellers with room space for almost 3-400. The stat system needs work and the effects of stats needs to be clearly defined lest you find out after filling your vault that because you didn’t level endurance first you need to completely repopulate your vault. Finally there is so much potential for this game but it feels severely limited, I would like to see more enemies such as gunners, and monsters like mirelurks attacking, and more quests with better rewards.
