Vaults (Fallout)
''Fallout'' is a series of post-apocalyptic role-playing video games—and later action role-playing games—created by Interplay Entertainment. The series is set during the 21st, 22nd and 23rd centuries, and its atompunk retrofuturistic setting and art work are influenced by the post-war culture of 1950s United States, with its combination of hope for the promises of technology and the lurking fear of nuclear annihilation. A forerunner of ''Fallout'' is ''Wasteland'', a 1988 game developed by Interplay Productions to which the series is regarded as a spiritual successor. The series' first title, ''Fallout'', was developed by Black Isle Studios and released in 1997, and its sequel, ''Fallout 2,'' the following year. With the tactical role-playing game '' Fallout Tactics: Brotherhood of Steel'', development was handed to Micro Forté and 14 Degrees East. In 2004, Interplay closed Black Isle Studios, and continued to produce '' Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel'', an action game with ...
