Using quest and encounter cards, players follow branching narratives that alter the game world and eventually guide one faction to victory. From there, quest cards and encounter decks drive the story for 1-4 survivors while they explore settlements, fight enemies, and scoop up caps across the map. Each session, players arrange tiles face-down into a fog-of-war-never-changes map, and choose a scenario that introduces two factions trying to control the Wasteland. Between this release and the core game’s expansive content, players have enough material to customize authentic Fallout multiplayer experiences to their heart’s content.įFG’s core Fallout set is a complete board game largely inspired by Bethesda’s Fallout 3 and 4. Thankfully, 76 wasn’t the only post-apocalyptic multiplayer experience to arrive in 2018 - Fantasy Flight Games unveiled Fallout: New California, a board game expansion inspired by the original Interplay Entertainment titles. Love or hate Fallout 76, it’s hard to deny that West Virginia was a far cry from the series’ iconic narrative roots.

An inspired blend of both Interplay and Bethesda's post-apocalyptic visions, is New California the co-op Fallout game you deserve?
