A fun little game

Well worth the dollar it cost to buy it. Has a really tangible post apocalyptic vibe that makes it worth while to fans of the genre. It’s short but it’s a good play experience for what it’s costs.

It tried so hard and fell so short

This game wants to be Fallout. So badly. But it completely lacks any sort of character depth, humor, or mechanics. Trading seems to be based on a hidden arbitrary value of some sort, the equipment is unimaginative, combat ranges between laughably east and hellacious frustrating, quests are vague and boring.

This unpolished game also reuses the same tired dialog as their other games, has atrocious navigation (the map is very close to useless unless you memorized the locations of people you want to talk to).

The only thing it has going for it is no ads/in app purchases, but even that isn’t enough to save this clunker.

There are a multitude of 1$ games on the App Store; I recommend you skip this one.

Waste of $2

This game could have potential but it’s just sad, I’m gonna beat myself up for a week after wasting $2 on this game.

Incredible - Short - But FUN!

[TL;DR = 100% WORTH > $1. GET IT.]

Original Fallout-style battle and trading mechanisms with VATS-like targeting (headshots lower % hit but higher damage, arms disarm, legs slow, etc).

Although the game is short (you can beat it in 3 hours on normal mode), there’s good replay value by playing through again as a hero or villain (+/- rep).

My one desired change is the ability to save the game. Especially wish that would have been possible just before the ending... Those that know, know what I’m saying. Also, let us look on bodies / boxes while in combat (running out of ammo or meds mid-combat means we gotta just give up and die at present).

I would absolutely pay $5-10 for a larger version of this game. Maybe add perks and some dialogue with NPCs. Great job, developers!

The Real Fallout Mobile!

Great Game!
But too short and even on hardest difficulty too easy, just kill everything and you have unlimited loot to trade with.
I would like to have a second part with more features :)
