I mean, that would be pretty cool, if they made a proper sequel that could incorporate some of the vault flavoring from even the OG fallout game, maybe include some lore/tieins from the show that aren't ham fisted...

Though it's Bethesda. We'd be lucky if it wasn't the same game from 2015 with a few extra outfit options and quests.

Shit, if they made a Shelter 2, they should let you build some kind of above-ground base/settlement.

Like basically just give us the settlements from 4, but 2D and cartoony that lets us build some wild shit. We could still send people on quests, attract new followers and "heroes" and maybe a more fleshed out pets system.

Like more of a 2D colony sim than the first one was.

Hell yea. It shouldn't be that hard, even. I don't know how corporations miss these low hanging fruit. Maybe the monetization scheme of mobile doesn't tickle their pickle enough.

You could start with simple wooden structures that you upgrade and could change the layout/theme just like in the first, there could be added defensive placements and dedicated guard jobs too. I'm imagining with this scenario, attacks would come from both sides of the buildable area; you could make turrets at some point to replace the human guards, and there could be a verticality aspect to it, like building turrets and other things on higher levels and it gives an accuracy/damage bonus.

I'd also like the ability to send out more scouts and mission parties. With more locations to visit, and more enemy types like the Brotherhood or Enclave. I don't remember if you could in Shelter, but it'd be cool to see other vaults you could visit on missions, either functioning or ruined.
