Fallout Shelter for Negative User Reviews

This game is very well designed... BUTThis game is so well designed with the art and activities... BUT I gotta say... this is the most STRESSFUL game I have ever played. I was constantly low on food and water causing my dwellers to have low health and then I was bombarded by high level monsters, especially the Deathclaws. With my food and water almost always being at 0 or close to 0, I had to rush a lot but even if my risk level was 28%, almost all of the time my rushes would fail, resulting in a high level monster attack. (Also, it wasn’t like I had bad dwellers or anything. All of my dwellers were assigned to the correct places and given good clothing and good guns). Since my dwellers were already low health, the high level monsters basically took them out in one hit. In my experience, the Deathclaws are impossible to kill. I’ve always had to move my dwellers to a different part of the shelter to escape them but the Deathclaws always ended killing off a good majority of my dwellers. In the end I couldn’t take the stress anymore and deleted the app after a huge Mole Rat infestation killed off almost all of my dwellers. So, in conclusion, I think that this is a very well made game BUT it is not for people who cannot handle the large amount of stress and frustration..Version: 1.14.1

Death claw attackAlready struggling bam death claw attack just got done with a death claw attack well here’s another one pal.Version: 1.15.13

Bug cost me a lotI sent some dwellers on a quest with 20 stimpacks and some radaway. When they arrived it said they had zero of each. So they all got killed and i had to spend 1300 caps to revive them all. So i pretty much lost 20 stimpacks and 1300 caps for nothing. Also it crashes a bit.Version: 1.13.11

Too complicatedI could have really gotten into this game but found it too difficult. I needed way more hints and tips - like I had do idea how to sell stuff or even what to do when raiders invaded?! Like I had no idea have to defend. Maybe if you had played the fallout games before it would have been a bit more intuitive but a completely new player I found it too much. Shame because this is exactly my kind of game the kind that would keep you coming back..Version: 1.13.16

Good game but profound late game flawsI really like the game, it does a lot right with balancing and mechanics but certain things make the game unenjoyable. The game operates well, but one reoccurring mechanic seems to dulls things. Certain disasters can happen that require an immediate response or the problem and consequences will worsen. It could be a fire, a raider attack, ghouls... I’m at population 60 so I’m getting deathclaws now. It’s not bad, but the problem is, consistently, I get deathclaws everytime I log in. I can’t take it. I deal with them but the punishment is severe and repetitive. I get through after waiting a couple of minutes for my dwellers throughout the vault to shoot them as I heal the injuries, but when this happens everytime I log in, it becomes a nuisance. It seems to just be on a timer, which is ok if it’s spaced out more, but it isn’t. I log in every couple of hours throughout the day (3 times) and 90% of the time there’s an attack I have to deal with. It’s too much, it’s too inconvenient. I can’t enjoy this really good game. It’s a shame but I might just stop playing because of it. It’s just so TEDIOUS. The very least they could do is switch up the disaster, but it’s always deathclaws. I have them attacking me right now. I’m just so fed up that I decided to write about it instead, so that the developers may hear my plight..Version: 1.13.25

A few weeks then devastationMy son played this game for a few weeks, lovingly taking care of his vault dwellers. He checked on them, equipped them with guns and stimpacks and probably tucked them all in at night. He would show me with pride every step he had towards 100% happiness. Today, being the kind Overseer he is, he went to check on his people. All dead. Deathclaw attack. No chance or opportunity to bring them back again.....unless you give the game money money money money money money money. Even then you can only remove the Deathclaws but you can't get back what you worked so hard to make. See the bright huge casinos in Las Vegas? That's this game. The game always wins and beats you down for trying to have a minuscule bit of fun..Version: 1.13.12

Do you even read these?So I’m pretty sure the developers have given up, now that I see these reviews have the similar issues from ages ago... It’s quite frustrating, there’s a *lot* of waiting, the tutorial tips just stop after a while so you’ll run into problems but have to Google their solutions...I keep having issues with supplies running low no matter how much I upgrade/expand the rooms, or move dwellers around who can SPECIALize in that room. It’s not fun enough for me to pay for extra lunchboxes just to keep my vaults afloat, so I’m just deleting it..Version: 1.14.1

Would rate 0 stars if I couldThese are the people responsible for one of my most favourite games shutting down because apparently Westworld copied this game. Let me just say no. I downloaded this game because apparently it was so close that they had to stop Westworld so I thought “well at least I’ll get my fix of that kind of game”. I hate this game. They are not that similar and this version is worse. There’s nothing as good as Westworld was now including this. The people who made it so Westworld has to shut off are just money grabbing greedy gits. If you’re going to force someone to shut down you would want to make sure your game is great but it’s not..Version: 1.13.25

4 out of 5It said for the 40 per carrier bundle for half price it was 17 dollars now its $8.50 so I went to get it but it charged me 17 dollars it can you fix that a give me 8.50 back please so it is half price.Version: 1.13.21

Hard challenges no rewardI get so excited when i finally have more than one lunchbox challenges to complete, i just collected 14 rare outfits and 14 rare weapons at the same time, i was supposed to receive two separate lunchboxes , but no after taking a week to complete these i only received one lunchbox and it contained my second repeat vault dweller and my 6th ghost costume. Its an even bigger joke when the one time i bought any lunchboxes on sale they only contained resources and nothing to write home about, i have also completed quests that should have rewarded me A lunchbox and i am not receiving them at the end of some quest. Too bad the Modders that are responsible for making your other games playable cannot fix this one for you. Instead of sitting in an office doing nothing but making empty promises and actually put time into developing your games people would actually respect Bethesda but this company will always remain a greedy joke like every other failing gaming company. One game a decade and a lazy mobile game will not keep your players coming back your will be left in the past and forgotten about the TV show will probably just be a complete slap to Obsidians lore just sellout already..Version: 1.15.1

Broken ad feature, buggy gameWas going smoothly, just opened up a second vault, loved the game, then suddenly a bug appears of having to wait more than 300hours to watch an ad! what’s worse is there’s zero solution to fix this & upon researching this problem has existed for years, you haven’t mastered this bug over years time? really guys? this game is pretty big i’m shocked they’d let this fly. The app also constantly sends me false notifications, saying such and such have completed a task, but when i click the notif to check, the task hasn’t been complete. Would love some help on how to fix these problems, i’d definitely change my review if this could be solved..Version: 1.14.11

It’s okIt’s ok at first but resources diminish while you are away and this game quickly turns into a responsibility. If you have nothing better to do, have fun. If you have a other responsibilities it’s just eh..Version: 1.15.7

Indirect Inbreeding and age playI’m very concerned about this, I’ve loved this game for many years and started playing as a child, and have spent a lot of real money into my investment because the game play itself is very very good. People around me were also concerned about this so they urged me to write this: Dwellers can have kids with indirect family (not direct family) like aunts/uncles/nephews/niece as long as they’re both adults. This is also stated in their wiki page. I’ve also created a family tree after day and night of planning to avoid it from happening, but then it escalated to something else: Age play, like literally, a dweller born decades before their partner can still mate with eachother; The child grew up next to an adult which is their future partner, it’s quite predatory and traumatic when you think about it. I know that the dwellers can’t age when they become adults or die from natural causes - but it unethical, it violates their rights as people, albeit virtual. Another thing is that Dwellers must procreate or their happiness goes down, I wish there were other ways instead of paying every time for pet crates so I don’t have to put dwellers together again. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying it’s a bad game, I’m saying that there are updates that needs to happen. Please consider adding a few things. I know that the devs has added in the past that direct family members can’t recreate, which is something I really really appreciate..Version: 1.15.1

Impossible to listen to something elseI really enjoy the game but i like listening to something while playing. There seems to be no way of doing both. Disappointing..Version: 1.15.10

Why tf is this app pausing my music????The game doesn’t even play its own music, yet every time I want to play, I have to choose between listening to their dumb elevator music, or nothing at all….Version: 1.15.12

Dwellers keep disappearing!Edit: I’m having an issue with dwellers disappearing, they’ll be there when I leave the game but when I come back they’ll be gone - they’re not even wondering around. Would be good if you could either buy junk at a weekly market or something with in game money or if you could send out your dwellers with a task of finding specific items - like if you need a shovel for a weapon. There are also way too many weapons, there should be just one weapon at one level of accuracy not several of the same weapon at different levels.Version: 1.13.11

3 star review because of one issueLove the game Awesome multiple vaults lots to do and play awesome customisation on almost everything the only issue i have with it and its made me delete the game multiple times is when i move a vault dweller it wont it just moves 1 or two rooms then glitches out and the dweller enlarges and goes the the left side of the screen and the you cant move any other dweller until you open the menu and then go back the only reason i have downloaded the game again is because i hoped it was fixed but sadly it wasn’t if its not fixed soonish i will delete the game again and this time for good an give a extremely bad review on Facebook and other social media..Version: 1.14.1

And so...Starts off great fun to play but after you’ve built everything (which only took a few weeks) everything becomes mind numbingly repetitive. Missions are all but identical, the only difference being the length of time it takes to get to the destination (the last one I did took 20 hours) and for it to last all of 5 mins and them call them back which just becomes a rinse and repeat annoyance. You can send individual characters out to collect stuff in the wastelands but after you send them out you have no control of them from then on. All you do is take a look at them to make sure they aren’t dead (you can revive them if they are for a some caps) and after they have been out there for a few days (in real world time) you call them back and then wait till they do and again it’s more rinse and repeat. There’s no real strategy to speak of as it’s all too easy just to wing it. It’s literally just collecting resources and moving characters around occasionally (and I mean ‘occasionally’). The graphics are nice enough but nothing stand out that hasn’t been seen many many times before. All in all it’s fun while it lasts but my advice would not be to sink any significant amount of money in it because longevity is not this games strong point..Version: 1.13.25

I can’t do anythingI have had problems with this game on 2 platforms,Xbox and noble. First it starts with idiotically strong mole rats wiping out half my vault, and now I’ve had the same problem. I got rad roaches in 1 room,ONE, and I gave every dweller in that room a powerful gun. The roaches still spread, and they’re not supposed to spread in a room with dwellers. It took about a minute to get rid of the roaches in the ONE room with weapons doing 7 to 22 or more damage, there was maybe 4 dwellers in there with really good weapons. It spread to many other rooms and eventually I killed them all. Right after I killed them all another group of rad roaches appeared. After it all went down, about 3 or 4 dwellers died, in which I had to exploit a glitch to get the caps to revive them. The glitch got me a bunch of caps and lunchboxes, but even after getting several power plants, diners, and water plants, i was still struggling to get enough supplies. I was getting supplies left and right from lunchboxes yet I still didn’t have enough. There is no way 40 dwellers need almost 300 or 400 food, and about 20 rooms shouldn’t need almost the whole bar of power, nor does 40 dwellers also need 300 or 400 water. It is very difficult to get the supplies I need and to fend off attacks, in which that is why I am rating this game 1 star. I loved fallout 4 Bethesda, I know you can do better..Version: 1.13.25

Mid game.Pick up the slack..Version: 1.15.12

Dwellers Not GratefulI want to say that, I first played this game four years ago.. so addicted and spent quality time in taking care of each dweller and listening to their needs. Raiders attack’s kept killing dwellers, and regardless of all efforts, you reach to a point where you can’t revive them and you loose hope. 2 weeks ago I decided to give it another try, download it and start new. Same old habits, roaches and raiders kill almost half of the population. You quickly run low in water and power supply, everyone gets sick. I provide shelter and upgrade rooms so these dwellers can have cozy bed rooms, full equipped dinners, game rooms, fun places, yet the moment you can’t control water supply they say things like “my skin is glowing” “ my fingers are falling” “I feel a hand is growing from my stomach” really?! After every thing I have been doing to make this a dream shelter. They are just demanding! I hate the fact that rats fill empty rooms, that’s is just disgusting and ruin the idea of a perfect shelter where I am spending so much caps in upgrading rooms and stuff ... I saved a lot of caps to upgrade vault door and yet raiders can break in.. what on earth you are taking my caps then?? I wish all these dwellers can find another vault and end up with a villain who watches them burn alive.Version: 1.13.13

Cool ideaNice idea if not can make your own characters and name them..Version: 1.15.11

Op creatures in missions or highly underrated missions.Been playing this game almost since release if i remember correctly tho i could be wrong but i have been playing it for a while and honestly it was funner back then there were no ads or anything especially when those ads weren't the same rewards over n over, but i was able to put up with them. But after getting back into the game for the fall and thanksgiving events this time around ive noticed the missions are severely underrated. I would send dwellers with decent amount of good gear and health and stuff with lvls 5-10 higher than the recommended and decent stats but each time and they get one shotted by all the creature type enemies in a mission that u wouldn't expect creatures in. I literally could barely even completely the vault birthday quests let alone some of the tg or the bot missions cuz I kept getting slaughtered! It would be a lvl 9 missions with no gun requirements i would send 3 lvl 15-25 dwellers with outfits to boost their stats and guns at least 10+ and still getting slaughtered. Idk whats going on but seriously need to reevaluate ur missions and play test them plz. These creatures are literally 2 shotting my dwellers and mowing them down within a few turns on the first room. By the time i get the the actual objective im all out of stims and barely get any back..Version: 1.15.2

Low rating to address crashesSince updating to iOS 11, the game freezes then crashes..Version: 1.13

Won’t loadWon’t load on 17.1 beta.Version: 1.15.11

More in game contentAfter 3 year it would be nice to see some more in game content. The game is getting old as it has changed much since release. Better rewards, more rooms, quests with more depth would be a good start Over all fallout shelter is great game just could really use an expansion.Version: 1.13.12

Deathclaw glitchI love this game but I have a couple things that I really don’t like. I find sometimes the HUD is really glitchy and it’s difficult to navigate. Like I’ll try to pinpoint on someone but it just won’t let me. And I had a REALLY annoying glitch with deathclaws. I have about 100 dwellers in my shelter and I had 3 deathclaw attacks literally happen back to back and every single one of my dwellers died. I had to rebuy most of them but it costed me like 15,000 coins. It almost made me quit the game.Version: 1.15.12

Game sucksDon’t get this hunk of dog game you walk away for 1 minute your whole base is infested with mole rats and roaches I worked so hard everyday now everyone’s dead if the creators see this I hate you.Version: 1.13.24

Just rather tedious in the endFun at the start, but the resource management just becomes rather tedious, as it is pretty difficult to work out what the right balance of rooms producing resources are; meaning you are pretty constantly running low on some basic essential at any stage in the game. The fact that resources don’t seem to be self generating whilst you are away from the game and unable to collect them manually just makes the whole thing extra tedious. Events such as raider attacks or rad roach infestations just become annoying or extra frustrating as a result. Going out on missions just feels like a bit of a luxury or risk given the need to focus on balancing the basics. I’m guessing the driver here is to get you to spend real cash to keep afloat, but you just don’t get invested enough in the game to want to do this. Deleted in the end. Shame, as a nice concept..Version: 1.15.10

Good game; low intelligenceThis is a really good game. Maybe one of the best ‘pay to play’ games around — because you’re not really hindered if you don’t purchase advancements. One thing I hate, however, is the unintelligent movement of the vault dwellers. If, for example, you have two training rooms and one dweller maxes out in one of the rooms, moving him to the other room forces one of the dwellers to trade places with the newcomer. But you would think that it would swap with a dweller that could USE the training in the new room. Instead, it usually chooses someone who might already be maxed out in that room — meaning after the swap you’re right back in the same situation as when you began... with a maxed out dweller that needs to be moved to a different training room. So to work around this endless loop, you have to first choose someone from the second room and manually remove them so that the dweller who is maxed out in the first room can go to the new training room. You can then manually move the previous guy into the first room since it now has an available slot. If they would just fix that one AI issue and allow the auto-swap to be useful for once, it would make the game much more enjoyable..Version: 1.13.18

When your goneI like the game it's just when you're gone the game still goes and you keep losing power and other things and it's really annoying because you keep having to do all the stuff all over again and it always takes ages can you make sure the game might not keep on going when you're gone so that players can actually enjoy the game I might be 10 years old but I know what other people like so please update the game so that they can play the game happily.Version: 1.13.21

Death clawsHurray more death claws. You spend more than a day away and you’re be gifted with death claws. Enough to go around for all your dwellers.Version: 1.14.19

Death claw attackYou want to login for 1 min to check something? Death claw attack? Just finished a death claw attack? Bam how about a death claw attack. You get a death claw attack! Everyone gets a death claw attack.Version: 1.14.3

It’s okGreat game, really getting into it, had nearly 100 dwellers until I twice got attacked by mole rats that just wouldn’t die and then kept multiplying until they both times nearly killed everyone in the vault. I matter how many times they were shot, they weren’t dying. Just as I was rebuilding and spent ages trying to get the vault back to normal the same thing happened again. Absolutely pointless.... just takes any enjoyment out of it, I understand maybe once but three times completely decimating the whole vault so there’s 10-15 alive and 70+ dead? Deleted and staying that way. Such a disappointment after really enjoying playing it for five days solid..Version: 1.13.12

Brilliant but ultimately unrewardingI’ve built everything and I’ve got 100+ dwellers but what now? I was expecting the ( final room needing 100 dwellers ) coke plant to churn out coke so that you can speed things up, but it doesn’t? It just produces food and water, which I’ve already got in abundance???? Bit sort of.... don’t know what I’m supposed to do now. When I load it I spend all my time taping individual dwellers who’ve levelled up, or rooms to harvest resources. Needs more automation and an actual end game. Still brilliant to play through though. Also, when the vault gets attacked I want to see my people responding to it. I assigned 4 high level dwellers to the gate with the best weapons I had. When I got attacked, three had wandered off and the one remaining one didn’t follow the raiders into the next room?!?!? The raiders marauded through several rooms with no one paying much attention. Pretty poor really that the dwellers don’t use s bit of common sense..Version: 1.13.15

Frustrating & infuriatingAfter man hours of gameplay have no weapons even after roaming the wasteland, have no way to defend from radroach attacks in shelter which wipes out entire population as all they do is stand there an not defend themselves, earn very little coins for rushing jobs as there is no other way to earn coins unless by shear luck you find the mystery man. But need to revive population which dies the very next radroach attack. Sounds like a good game but way too frustrating when getting wiped out after hours of gameplay & not having any defences to deal with the problem... this has happened several times now.. very poor game that doesn’t reflect the original franchise it’s trying to cash on in.Version: 1.13.15

Make easier....The game right now is really hard and the waiting times for all the resources are too long. Also dwellers are really hard to get. The waiting times in general are WAY TOO LONG. Plz fix it would change my rating to a 5..Version: 1.13.9

Was funUsed to listen to music while playing this, but then they recently made it so you cant, kinda ruined the podcast/music while playing thing i had going, now i don’t use it anyways was fun.Version: 1.15.11

Brilliant game but could be improvedI love this game, it’s a nice distraction. However it is very difficult to progress after a while, I keep getting attacked by death claws, which kill off my dwellers - my caps too, if I revive them - I spend time getting my resources back up, work on improving the health of my dwellers, make new weapons etc. then another death claw attack comes along and obliterates it all. On top of this, the video I can watch to get rewards (every 4 hours), pauses the timer whenever I leave the game, it sometimes takes me 2 days to get the video reward. I cannot stay on for 4 hours but that seems to be the intention. Could you not make it a 24 hour thing?.Version: 1.15.10

Well, I got boredYup, I got bored, started playing something else... now, trying to come back, my cloud account has an error and all my vaults are gone, guess I’ll stay away then..Version: 1.14.10

Infinity loading screenLet me in my vault.Version: 1.15.11

?I don’t understand this game at all.. add rooms and wait... and wait and wait. Literally the most boring game in existence. Unless I’m not understanding the point. Zzzzz snoozer..Version: 1.13.16

Good- shame about Nukacola quantumGreat game which is very addictive, especially if you love fallout like me, but I was disappointed that the nuka cola factory doesn’t produce nuka quantum as the last room you can buy. I’ve got this far but will stop playing now as it’s sort of ruined it for me. I don’t like having to pay real money for the quantum’s and it’s quite a big part of the game. You need it to collect items and go on quests. I understand it’s a free game but it’d be better if you just paid a set amount upfront instead. Also please can you make a first person fallout 4 app as I love building the towns. Hey ho, guess I’ll have some free time again now !.Version: 1.13.11

Early Game Good, Late Game BoringHi all, I got this game when it came out and I have had heeps of fun managing and running a vault. The early game is basically a survival simulator with raids and disasters being catastrophic. This keeps the player engaged and actively playing. Although the mid game, 100pop, is still fun, once you send out max special dweller you soon realise what the sell function really is. Late gamer you can send up to 20 super soldiers to retrieve half the wasteland. Then the missions become rollovers with your death squads in power armour and MIRVs. Even the supposedly “hard” ones are easy with 20 stims with the only want rewards being pets or lunch boxes. I would really like to see harder end game as you can basically do anything but nothing as well. The mission become boring and repetitive with the only unique one being the gauntlet and its questions. Fun start to hook you in but drops off as time continues..Version: 1.13.23

FrustratingI’ve lost count of how many times I’ve found the mystery stranger and I’ve lost him after how many times I’ve tapped on him. Very frustrated.Version: 1.15.11

Used to be good, now full of AdsToday they revamped the app, and filled it with many 30s ads for no reason, after years of it being ad free. I paid $9 in this game, ai shouldnt have to watch ads. The don’t even update the game or fix bugs anymore, they are just milking this for what’s left..Version: 1.14.1

Good fun but flawed.I like this game. Its fun. However, my biggest issue is the game does not give you hardly any time to execute the things you need to do to keep a larger vault running before in come running something that steals your resources at an alarming rate & then doesn't return them to you once you vanquish the threat. And what exactly would a Deathclaw do with stolen electricity anyway? And how is it stealing that electricity while thrashing around & almost killing half of my vault? I would appreciate being given a little more time to operate my vault before being attacked over & over. If that were to happen, I would change my rating to five stars, because other than that pretty big issue, the game can be a lot of fun..Version: 1.13.23

The mighty have fallen.Latest update just pushed this game off my phone due to new advertising spam freshly implanted into this game. Now I have to wait 30 seconds through unskipable ads for other mobile games, everytime I have a vault dweller explore the wastelands, every 8 hours (not in game, it’s based on your clock). This game already had a monetisation model built into the game!! But now as they are rolling out “FALLOUT SHELTER ONLINE” I guess this is being framed more and more to be the free to play crappy version! This was the last way I found it comfortable and acceptable to support the fallout franchise since the disgusting actions throughout fallout76, but now that does it!! I’m done with the fallout universe and Bethesda studios!.Version: 1.14.1

Fair reviewThis game could be so much better. Don’t make it so hard at the beginning. Attacks are to frequent, and sometimes to difficult. It should be a game you can play over and over. Make the map a random entity in some parts and ways so ppl don’t get bored. Maybe even a death spirit (‘lose for sure enemy’) took keep luck a factor. Why did ppl play fallout original pc game so much, because of the variation. Ppl like to aspire to be the best too. If the base had a lot of underground expansion.. and it needs eggs. Most games have eggs for fans. And everyplace needs a pizza oven, buy one for the office. I’m sure u have a coffee machine? Or even a $2 Coffee dispenser! But pizza is better. A slice of pizza a day keeps covid at bay. My mother always said that when I was growing up, nobody even hear of covid in the 1990’s…..Version: 1.14.19

Fix your damn RNGI uninstalled because I was being hit by repeated external attacks, one after another, every time I opened the app. Installed it again today; had none of my resources and got hit by a radscorpion attack before 5 mins had even passed. Fix your effing game..Version: 1.15.10

Unbalanced enemy raidsI am a about a week into this as a casual player and it was ok, seemingly matched enemy that attacked and when I went out on missions. But in the last few days I have been attacked 4 times by almost unstoppable groups of deathclaws who rampage through the bunker killing almost everyone. So now all resources go to being able to afford trying to revive most of them so they can get back to work making power/water/food before it happens again. The few ok equipped folks I have are no match for them, I enjoy a bit of a challenge, but this looks like it is going to be a stupid cycle of barely getting most people back before getting wrecked daily. Great job Edit: dropped to 1 star After posting this and going back to the game to start working on fixing the carnage of the previous attack, I got raided again by another group of deathclaws. I had only been able to revive a few folks from the last rampage. . I played all the xbox versions, and Im fine with pay to play concept as I know devs need to recoup costs, but at this rate you would need to drop a ton of cash daily just to equip and revive your dwellers. Impractical and futile. No point playing Another edit - I would give a negative rating if I could Another deathclaw attack, I still hadn't fully recovered grom last one. Most dwellers killed again. Done with it..Version: 1.13.21

Frustrating but funJust when you get good at what your doing, your people will probably be killed by stupid creatures or because you accidentally killed them with neglect. Buying stuff to make the game work better is not always worth it. However with time you can get better and survive..Version: 1.13.24

Broken questsI never get my rewards after finishing a quest, want this fixed soon and for my promised mr handy and lunchboxes.Version: 1.13

Needs moreI’ve been playing this game for about 2 weeks and I’ve just hit 100 dwellers so was looking forward to building the last room to make nuka-cola bottles. You won’t believe how upset I was to find out that they don’t actually make the bottles! Just food and water! *crys*. It says ‘ASSIGN DWELLERS HERE TO PRODUCE NUKA-COLA’. - how deceiving of you. Literally heart broken. So now what? It kind of seems like it’s the end of the game. I’ve got a tiny bit of space left for a couple of rooms but then that’s it. I love this game so much and spend so much time on it but what’s the point if you can’t build more? I feel like it needs a serious update. We need more space, new quests, new people, new weapons and stuff. This game have taken over my life it’s fab, but I really want more please. I’ll start again in a new vault just to see if I can maybe arrange the rooms better this time but what will I do then? Ahhh I’m actually gutted for real. I know it’s a free game so the developers can’t really be bothered to work on updates because they’re not gaining anything but PLEASE? I’m desperate for more!.Version: 1.13.12

Great mechanics, poor business modelWhat I can say is that the gameplay elements in this game are great however, it has some built in barriers that you can pay your way past. This game could be vastly improved by abandoning its micropayment model in favour of a base cost game with better pacing..Version: 1.13

Super Annoyed.The glitches make it impossible to ever keep up with the constant attacks. I send dwellers out on missions and quests, only for them to return empty handed over and over. Explorers will have loads of items in their bar at the bottom and when they return, it all disappears! So my vault is left with no outfits to boost production and no weapons to defend. I even got ripped off a robot on a quest. Then to have 2 death claw attacks in less than 20 minutes?? How is this fair or even possible to play? My shelter has dead bodies everywhere, everyone left alive is miserable, and there’s not enough power, food or water. And there’s nothing I can do about it. It takes away from any fun the game has..Version: 1.13.12

It is a good game and I do like it….. but…..I wish you could at least swap rooms positions around to arrange it better, as annoying cannot put similar rooms together. Makes the rooms all over the place and if you do not have a great memory, you waste loads of time trying to figure which room is which, AGAIN! Only way to move them is to destroy them, which when caps are short, you cannot do this and is a waste of resources. ALSO BE AWARE WHEN PURCHASE ITEMS…. If you delete the vault to start again, you cannot recover the paid for items to use on your current vault. So, pointless spending money, as if like me you keep restarting, as get bored, the money is lost!!!! There should be option to recover them to re-use!! Will get 5 stars when can move rooms and recover purchases, but is really annoying, as stops me playing for a while. Also, wish would do side holiday events, as a separate thing to enhance the game..Version: 1.15.10

Help!I can’t login the game since this morning? Since a couples days ago there is no sound !.Version: 1.15.13

Good gamePretty good game a few bug/glitches like dragging dwellers to different rooms it bugs out and they don’t go to the room I dragged them too or when I start dragging them the icon your dragging goes crazy and just goes to a random room but it can be worked around by just going to the room you want the dweller in and click on the clipboard but still annoying when getting attacked can trying to drag them around quickly also i get attacked all the time like almost every 5(not exact) the other day I had deathclaws come like 4 times in a space of 10 minutes and just before I started this review I was playing for not that long and I got attacked but raiders gouls and deathclaws like almost straight off the bat but other then that good game.Version: 1.13.15

Glitch 🙁Im quite surprised that a game that has been on the AppStore for quite a long time still has a TON of annoying glitches that just aren’t fair. It has happened to me quite a few times now that all the legendary loot I have collected on quests and then click collect that I don’t get them. I have looked a few times before I collect them and I see that I have enough storage to hold them and if I check the log where you have a look over all the weapons you have collected, these items do not show up.. i don’t know what it is but it is very frustrating and disappointing that the game never gives me my legendary loot... PLEASE FIX THIS..Version: 1.13.7

Pay to Win GarbageSo I started playing the game and I was loving it. Was super excited to send people into the wasteland and to start doing quests and getting cool items. Virtually all my Dwellers are equipped with specialist clothing and have decent weapons yet at the 38 dweller mark I started getting rad roach and mole rat infestations that killed everyone in my vault. Some of them seemed to be invincible at times which apparently is a common glitch from online. To get anywhere or have any fun with this game later on you have to spend money in game and buy Lunch Boxes which is just morally wrong and pathetic from Bethesda, a company who’s games I usually love and support. Thanks for wasting my time on a temporarily fun game which I can no longer enjoy due to an elaborate ploy to take peoples money :).Version: 1.13.12

Boring nowNo updates to make it more fun. Boring.Version: 1.15.13

Great game but iOS 11 issuesLove the game, so many improvements since the early days, BUT since updating my iPhone 6 to iOS 11, the game isn’t working properly - it won’t load quests, it just gets stuck on the loading screen, likewise when I try to leave a vault for the main menu. I can get to the quest/menu by shutting down the app and reloading the game, but that’s super tedious. Hoping an update is in the works. [edit: in case it helps identify/fix the issue (or helps as a stop-gap fix for others experiencing the problem), I’ve found that zooming all the way out before attempting to enter a quest or exit to the main menu helps (allows the next screen to load properly). I didn’t mention above, but when the bug happens, the loading screen also looks fragmented, combined with whatever was on the screen a few moments before and black patches. Hope this helps!].Version: 1.13

SucksSucks.Version: 1.15.11

Fun, addictive to start with but boring after a while.Hate the fact I’ve had to delete half my vault just to rebuild it. Would be better if we could select room to move/remove rather than having to delete from the bottom up. I’ve got 102 dwellers in less than a week.. just starting to do quests now I have some decent weapons. Have downgraded my star review. After a few weeks this game is boring. Two weeks to build weapons and outfits is just too long. The quests and places the dwellers find are always the same, and that too gets boring after a while. Infact I’ve started to Ignore this game now, after being glued to it for 3 weeks. My shelter is self sufficient to run on its own.. I have 15-20 dwellers exploring at any time, I don’t even check on them. I leave them to die out there and revive them and bring them back. A large percentage are fully trained... so with my shelter at practically full capacity... what’s the point now? It got boring real quick..Version: 1.13.9

Not working on iOS 7.1.2App is not running on iOS 7.1.2 please fix this bug. -black screen and crash.Version: 1.13.15

One bit of the game is making me annoyed.I had a dweller in the waste land after about 12 hours and in the final 20 Minutes after the six hour return I pressed return by accident. And then the return had to go back to SIX HOURS. That drove me up the walk and almost put me off the game. It would be better if they just restart the journey from the point they were coming back. So 30 mins left, when you press explore again, it just ends up being an hour they’re out and will still take half an hour to come back. Restarting it back to the original time it unnecessary and incredibly annoying. I hope the developers fix this. I love the game otherwise and enjoy it a lot..Version: 1.13.18

Don’t botherReally enjoyed myself when I first started 2 days ago. Today my base was attacked by Rad Roaches and wiped a lot of my characters out. Then I have to pay caps to revive them which I can’t get as I need to wait ages either by collecting from resources or the Wasteland. This game should come with a ‘fun’ and ‘survival’ mode as I’m really not interested in the constant combat and I would prefer to fight enemies when I feel ready. Quite frankly the combat is too much too soon and your survival rate very poor. The pregnant characters are unbearable to have around as they just let the base down during an attack or disaster by running about flailing their arms….until they give birth…which takes ages. Oh and then you have to wait for the child to grow before you can use them so it’s near impossible balancing my population with my ability to defend my base. The enemies and fires are too strong. The drag drop mechanism is rubbish. Why do the dwellers on other floors react to the incident but don’t go to help? The fires now spread too quickly also. Honestly just a massive letdown and I will now be uninstalling..Version: 1.14.13

Deathclaws are an unfair tear down of all resourcesI have gotten this game & spent money on this game. Over the years I have enjoyed it and just when I am building up my vault and things are going well ( i always had just spent money on boxes or something) and the deathclaws come through and kill 3 floors of my people. I don’t ever have enough money to revive even half of them, meaning I lose all my outfits and weapons as well, so I will get aggravated with the game and I uninstall it and put it down for a year or two. One day I forget how aggravating it is and I start playing again- I will not do that again if the game stays as awful as it is. You should have more challenge as the game progresses but not to decimate your resources for half of your vault with no way to defend against them (no gun or level seems to kill them) so that you have half of what you have worked for for weeks still remaining in seconds. Until they change that I won’t spend another penny on this game and won’t recommend it to anyone, in fact I will tell them how pointless it is to play this game and warn them not to spend any money on this game! No one should have to spend time and money on a game to have a random attack take out half of what you have built..Version: 1.14

Pretty dam goodThis game is certainly a gem in the filth of the App Store I love the style and look but I had and idea that I think would be really good in the game as an attack there should be Enclave vertibirds that drop 2to4 Enclave soldiers that attack your vault and there should be faction base such as the insititute the great knans or minute settelments and you should have and a reputation that can go up or down depending on your dwellers actions that you can make and for example if you anger the insititute the send synths after your vault if you added something like this it would be pretty awesome and amazing.Version: 1.13

STUPID DEATH CLAWSMY VAULT HAS BEEN ATTACKED BY DEATH CLAWS 13 TIMES AND I HAVE ONLY HAD THE GAME FOR THREE DAYS. I love fallout but this is just bad the amount of times I have been attack by only death claws is just insane and the only times my vault dwellers are happy is when bottle and capy are there.Version: 1.14.1
