I have to confess I had almost forgotten about Fallout Shelter by now. The title always felt like a promotional tie-in and failed to hold my interest over a long period of time. I don't know if the last few updates have done anything in that regard, but personally I'm perfectly happy with the time I've spent with its charming Vault Boys and Girls and don't feel the need to play it any longer.
