The original Fallout game, the first in the Fallout game series, was released by developer Interplay in 1997. The game put players in the shoes of a Vault Dweller, a survivor of the nuclear wastelands of Southern California in the year 2161. A sequel, Fallout 2, was released in 1998, followed by Fallout 3 ten years later – however, where the first two games were top-down, third-person shooter games, Fallout 3 deviated from the series standard to bring players the 3D, first-person RPG experience fans of the series enjoy to this day.
