Amazon Prime’s Fallout TV show has supercharged excitement in the Fallout IP, leading to a significant surge in player counts across a variety of Fallout titles on Steam, but also for Fallout London, a fan-created mod for Fallout 4 that may as well be an entirely new entry in the series due to the breadth and scope of the project.
Fallout Season 1 Review
17.04.2024 - 21:57 / gamesreviews.com
Fallout the video game was about the world after it ended. We never really found out why the world ended. We saw maybe a little bit before it ended and then the game was set all the way after. Fallout Season 1, on the other hand, goes into the origins of the world of Fallout. We find out who was responsible for the end of the world and why.
Flashbacks and events in Fallout’s present reveal a lot of things. The show can be pretty dark at times, but there is the familiar, weird Fallout humor that runs throughout the show. The story of the Fallout season 1 is, dare we say, even more epic than any of the video games. The cast is pretty impressive too.
Everyone from Ella Purnall, who plays the main character Lucy, to Walter Groggins, who plays The Ghoul, is perfectly cast. We know that Lucy is a good person but we are unsure about pretty much everyone else in the show. The characters, even Lucy, are flawed and feel like real humans (or non-humans in the case of the Ghoul).
The best character in the show is The Ghoul. We get a lot of his history in the first season too. He’s a super complex character and we’re never sure which side he’s on.
None of the character’s stories are finished in season 1. The series leaves a lot of questions unanswered. We can’t wait to see where season 2 (if there is one) takes the show. There is so much more to see in Fallout’s world.
The world of Fallout feels a lot like the video game: from the sets to the costumes to the effects, everything about the series seems familiar if you’ve played the games. If you never played the games, everything is laid out and everything you need to know is revealed in the show. The production value of this show is off the charts. Fallout is a weird, fantastic looking show.
And then there’s the music! Just like the games, Fallout’s soundtrack is mostly songs from the 30s, 40s, and 50s. The music brings a charm and lightness to the sometimes very dark and weird world of Fallout. The songs gamers would expect in the show, like “I don’t want to set the world on fire” are in it. There’s also Johnny Cash songs! The soundtrack is wonderful. Fallout, as a whole, is a wonderful treat.
Looking for trouble
Fallout season 1 is perfect. From the characters to the story to the world and the music, Fallout the tv show feels like the video game and yet also it expands on the game and shows us things we hadn’t seen before. If you love games, you’ll love the show.
If you’ve never played the games, buckle up. Everything you need to know is in the show. You can go into this having never heard of Fallout before. Of course, if you have heard of the game and you love it, you’ll pick up on things that perhaps others will miss.
Fallout season 1 is dark, weird, funny,

Another Crab’s Treasure Review
You’ve heard of the Lands Between, but have you ever considered the Sands Between? That’s not a joke, that’s a genuine area in Another Crab’s Treasure, and I don’t think anything sums up the exact vibe that this game is going for better than the name of that one area. This is a love letter to and a sendup of so much of what FromSoftware has done, all wrapped up in a very cute crab protagonist just trying to get their home back, and a deeply unsettling message about pollution that we all already know, but don’t often get to play through.

Another Crab's Treasure Review (PS5) | Push Square
Another Crab's Treasure might not look like a soulslike action RPG, but it is one. Take out the dark, oppressive nature of FromSoftware's output and replace it with SpongeBob, and you're more or less there. Purposely juxtaposing the established tropes of the genre, this title offers a fresh, more lighthearted experience without sacrificing the level of challenge you'd expect.

Another Crab’s Treasure Review
It’s wonderfully ironic that the biggest breath of fresh air the soulslike genre has received in years comes from an adventure that takes place entirely underwater. Where most dodge-rolling action games are drab, bloody, and edgelordian, Another Crab’s Treasure is bursting with bright colors, cartoonish sea creatures, and silly humor. That extreme departure from serious and spooky vibes makes it standout in an increasingly crowded space, even when it follows the formula extremely closely in every other regard. It suffers from overly simplistic combat, a general lack of challenge, and some bugs and camera wonkiness now and again – but with memorable characters, an extremely enjoyable story, and lots of original ideas, Another Crab’s Treasure had me grinning all throughout my 20-hour tour of the ocean floor.
