Fallout: The Board Game

Modern Hobby Strategy Games

Fallout: The Board Game is a post-nuclear adventure board game published by Fantasy Flight Games in 2017 and based on Bethesda's Fallout video game series. Players take the role of survivors wandering a wasteland left by the Great War of 2077, where empty suburban homes, mutated creatures and rogue robots fill the landscape. The game is played in scenarios on a map built from tiles. On a turn a player may take up to two actions, such as exploring, moving, taking on quests, drawing encounters, fighting or making camp, and tests are resolved with three special V.A.T.S. dice. After every player has acted, enemies activate according to the top agenda card. Each player also holds a secret agenda, and the game ends when someone reaches the influence total set for the number of players. Solo rules are included, and the game is listed for one to four players.
