    Fallout Shelter on Switch is the same great game it's always been, but it's unclear why you'd jump from mobile to this version.

    To a fault, Fallout Shelter is the same game that you can play on any other platforms. The gameplay loop is simple yet engaging, though the lack of variety in the mid and end game remains disappointing. For newcomers, Fallout Shelter is an okay game that can casually occupy your time. But if you’re a veteran, I can’t see any reason why you should play this version.

    Fallout Shelter is handsomely presented with a nice resource management loop that’s worthy of investigation, but it’s tough to recommend this version if you've got access to other platforms.

    Fallout Shelter isn't the introduction to the series Nintendo fans deserve. It's a rather mediocre freemium game, and Bethesda would likely have been better served getting a main series game out on Switch first.

    Why the hell am I presented with a 4 minute timer in the tutorial? This is not the year 1970.

    An ok game that will keep your brain busy for free. After a while, you will find it boring and repetitive.

    In Russian region a can`t buy this game, besides all Bethesda games blocked in Russia. It`s so stupid. Non-politics games.
