I hope you all are having a great time at the realme community. Have you ever imagined yourself in a position where the lives of numerous peoples depend upon your decision and strength of decision making; If yes, then I got a game named ‘Fallout Shelter’ that can simulate this scenario for you. For those who may be out of the loop, Fallout Shelter is Bethesda’s latest mobile game, based on the popular Fallout franchise that has thrived for over a decade. Let’s know more about the features of this amazing game.
In Fallout Shelter, you assume the role of a vault overseer. As the overseer, it’s your job to grow the vault, both in population and in size. There are several rooms that you can build and every room has a specific purpose that works symbiotically with the other rooms. Seriously, this game is the most addicting I have played since Flappy Bird. You can think of this game as a cooler version of The Sims, with a touch of Sim City. You have to oversee the building of an underground vault, where your dwellers will spend all their time. Let’s get deep into features of this game.
Features
Storyline
The story is very simple and very similar to that of all other Fallout titles. The world has gone to hell and people are struggling to survive in a post-apocalyptic world full of radiation. It’s hard to live out there, and this is where you come into play as the overseer of a vault. You need a generator room to create power. You need a water treatment room to provide water. You need a diner to provide food for your residents and you need barracks to house your vault dwellers. You cannot focus on just one type of room. Every room you add increases the requirements for electricity, food, and water, so you’ll need to balance all the rooms.
Character Stats
The vault dwellers have stats that correspond to various other rooms. If you’re familiar with the Fallout series, then you’ll recognize the S.P.E.C.I.A.L. stats. Strength. The strength stat directly corresponds with the creation of electricity. By assigning vault dwellers with high strength to the generator rooms, they will produce electricity faster and more efficiently. Perception. Vault dwellers with a high perception do well in the water treatment rooms. Endurance. The higher the endurance, the longer your character can stay out in the wasteland and the longer they are in the wasteland, the better chances they will have to find more caps, weapons, and outfits. Charisma. When your dwellers have high charisma they are best suited for the radio room. Intelligence. Vault dwellers with high intelligence are best suited to making RadAway. Agility. A higher agility dweller should be used to make food. Luck. This stat helps out all around, but it’s speculated that it is best used for exploring the wasteland.
Training Rooms
Raising the above-mentioned stats will not only help you fend off infestations and attackers, but it will also make your dwellers more productive, depending on which rooms they are assigned to. For example, characters with more strength will perform better in power generators. Likewise, having more perception will improve your water production. But what if none of your characters are any good? This is where training rooms come into play. Assigning your dwellers to a weight room will make them stronger. Sending them to the athletics room will make them more agile. Furthermore, the classroom will raise intelligence, the game room will increase luck, and so on. Just leave them there and train them until they reach your desired level, then send them back to work and you will be outputting resources in a jiffy.
Fight For Life
Living in this post-apocalyptic vault is not all joy. It doesn’t matter if your economy is thriving, there are risks out there, so you must keep your dwellers strong and well-armed. For starters, infestations can pop out at any time. And though these used to be only Radroaches, the latest update adds Molerats to the equation. Your residents will have to fight them off or die trying. Infestations and fires can occur at any time, but they usually happen when you unsuccessfully attempt to rush production on a room. We can’t dismiss outside dangers, either. Raiders show up and break into your vault from time to time. They will try to take your resources and caps.
