With the release of the new TV show there has never been a better time to dive into the post-apocalyptic universe and replay the games. One often overlooked entry into the series is the free to play idle game that puts players in charge of their very own vault. But what is it that makes this game still worth checking out in 2024?
Released on iOS and Android devices in 2015 was later brought to the Xbox One in 2017 then Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 4 in 2018. With its easy to learn gameplay, quickly rose through the charts and was at one point the most played game, according to Bethesda's creative director Todd Howard in 2016. But almost 10 years since it first appeared, is still worth playing?
There are quite a few things that work in ’s favor, with one of the main factors being thatit is completely free to play. Although there are microtransactions in-game, all are completely optional, and it is possible to game and succeed in the game without ever spending a penny. From its humble and basic beginning, much more content has been added tosince its release, making it tons of fun to play.
The idea behind is a simple one. The player is a Vault-Tec Overseer who must build & oversee a vault just like in .

Different rooms in the vault will provide either resources or the ability to train the dwellers in various skills based on ’s S.P.E.C.I.A.L. attributes.
Dwellers with higher stats in specific attributes are better suited to specific tasks, for example dwellers with high Strength will help increase productivity in power rooms whereas dwellers with high Agility are better working in the cafeterias creating food. To begin with, a limited number of rooms are available, and more unlocking is needed as the vault population increases. The maximum number of dwellers a vault can hold is 200, which may not sound like a lot but it is more than enough to keep any prospective Overseers busy.
It is a good idea to get enough dwellers to unlock the training rooms, then stopping any further breeding until the current dwellers have maxed their S.P.E.C.I.A.L.stats. This will prevent the vault from expanding too quickly and creating resource issues.
As the vault expands the Overseer’s office will unlock allowing vault dwellers to be sent on quests. These are a great way to get new weapons, outfits, and useful junk for crafting, as well as recipes for weapons, armor, and themes. There are some really fun stories tied to these quests, with the classic sense of humor running through the whole game.
To keep the vault running successfully, the three main resources need to be kept high, along with dweller
