Fallout Shelter: The Board Game Coming From Fantasy Flight

 

The bombs have fallen, but under 2,000 feet of bedrock your Vault-Tec Vault is a thriving and joyous community—at least until the untimely death of your Overseer. Now, it’s up to you and your fellow officers to keep your Vault Dwellers safe, productive, and happy. Compete with the other players to see who can inspire the most happiness and be elected as the new Overseer!

 

 

Fantasy Flight Games will release Fallout Shelter: The Board Game, a post-nuclear board game, Q1 of 2020.

Fallout Shelter is a worker-placement game that puts you in charge of the various Vault Dwellers in your underground utopia beneath a post-nuclear world. You’ll start every game with two Pip-Boy bobbleheads, representing the Dwellers you personally lead as an officer. While two may seem like a small amount, with careful planning you can facilitate the repopulation of our great nation and increase your number of Dwellers up to seven. No matter how many Dwellers you have, however, on your turn, you’ll have to decide how your Dwellers spend their time. Maybe you’ll send them to a lounge to increase their happiness. Or perhaps you’ll send them back to their living quarters to produce even more Dwellers!

As a vault officer builds more rooms, they gain points. If a vault officer builds a sixth room on their floor, the game ends at the end of the round. The vault officer who has spread the most happiness on their floor wins the game.

This game is for two to four players and will retail for $39.95.
