Fallout Shelter is an addictive mobile game for Fallout fans and casual gamers alike and does free-to-play right, but is frustrating when it crashes.

Bethesda took a risk with its move into the strategy genre, and it paid off in this case. The world of Fallout fit the concept of a builder game surprisingly well, and the cartoony graphics also worked well. The very nice overall impression is marred only by the unfun combat and story elements, which could have been handled much better. In any case, Fallout Shelter is a good mobile game - but whether it's also a good addition to the Fallout franchise is for each player to decide. Since both the mobile and Steam versions are free, there's nothing easier than downloading one and seeing for yourself.

Free-to-play game which doesn't even want your money. You can play it, but PS4 is not the best platform for it.

For better and for worse, this is the same Fallout Shelter that you can play on other platforms.

In the end, Fallout: Shelter is good for what it sets out to do. It’s a great time waster and it certainly will hook you with its visuals and presentation.

‎It contains a lot of content and if you like the genre it will have to take many, many hours until you find that the game starts to become repetitive and you run out of new goals to achieve. All in all, a free, fun and well-optimized game, if you like the genre you can't miss it.‎

Games like this can often already get old even after a few days. Because of that, Fallout Shelter is a pleasant surprise because watching the funny debates of the Vault residents, sending them to explore the wasteland and taking care of their well-being is really fun.
