10 Insanely Good Free Switch Games

6. Fallout Shelter

Pokemon Quest
Bethesda

Fallout, at its core, is a game about the aftermath of a nuclear catastrophe. However, with the main-stream games, it’s rare that we actually witness the chaos which others endured while we were nice and comfortable in a pod. Fallout Shelter lets you experience the doomsday preparation first-hand as you create a shelter for your society of people to survive this disaster.

The game is extremely upbeat despite its grim setting, the fun cartoon style incredibly different from the main games but only adding to its charm. Down beneath 2000 feet of bedrock, you’ll have complete control to fit your establishment with whatever you want and can afford. Choosing the best people for your community is important as you’ll quickly find yourself sending them on missions above ground to gather more resources, and when the time comes, you’ll have to protect them from deadly threats.

For a game series not originally available on Nintendo, Fallout Shelter perfectly encapsulates the grim post-apocalyptic and slightly humorous world of Fallout alongside the art-style and high-energy gameplay we’ve come to expect from a Nintendo game.
