You’ve no doubt noticed the risk/reward dynamic inherent in rushing production already, but it also extends to Happiness. Rushes can help, but they’re also risky.I think this pic, courtesy of Gamezebo EIC Jim Squires, says it all: You’ve got two choices either pay some Caps to restore the dead Dweller to life or chalk them up as an acceptable loss and clear them out. That doesn’t mean you have to let the dead bodies lie around. Drag in some weapon-toting Dwellers and don’t let those problems fester. Other times, you might need to take action, like if Radroaches attack a room where no one is armed. Six Dwellers working together, for instance, can almost always handle a fire pretty quickly. Often this is just a case of strength in numbers. Shockingly, Dwellers don’t really enjoy being roughed up by raiders or snacked on by Radroaches. Take care of incident as quickly as possible.Keep Power, Food and Water in the green and your Happiness levels will benefit. This might seem obvious since it’s the crux of the gameplay in Fallout Shelter, but Dwellers are happiest when they don’t have to worry about running out of the essentials. Keep your stockpiles of resources as high as possible.In any case, here’s some advice on what to do to keep your Dwellers happy and that Happiness score high. Yes, happy workers are more productive, even after most of the Earth has become a radioactive wasteland. And that’s important, because not only do the Dwellers just look cuter with smiles on their faces instead of frowns, keeping the average Happiness score of your Vault (which you can see in the upper-left corner of the main screen) high gives you production bonuses for all resources. RELATED: Fallout Shelter Tips, Tricks and StrategiesĪctually, there are a few things you can do to ensure the Happiness level of your Dwellers stays high. Other than turning back the clock and preventing the apocalypse, what else can you possibly do? You find interesting work for them, provide them with power, food and water, and even give them opportunities to risk their lives explore the great outdoors.

As an Overseer, you do all you can to make life inside a Vault pleasant for your Dwellers.
