Fallout Shelter revolves around managing the dwellers of the Vault. The Vault is an underground bunker and it is the player’s job to ensure the expansion and survival of the Vault. The game is like a simplified The Sims and a city builder combined.

Players are able to assign dwellers to work on different areas of the Vault. Each dweller has its own characteristic, making them better at certain tasks compared to other dwellers. The player can also train the dwellers to become better at what they do.

Players manage the expansion of the Vault, too. Deciding when dwellers can have and raise children to increase the Vault’s population and man power is part of the Fallout Shelter experience.

Fallout Shelter can be obtained via its website. Players are required to create a Bethesda account to download and play the game for free.
