February came to a close and the first few app and game releases in March have been pretty big. This week we had companion apps to amazing games, big studios releasing new projects, and updates to popular apps and games. Fallout Shelter, Bethesda’s successful mobile game got a nice update and Supercell released Clash Royale with a bang. Here are the notable apps and games this week:
Fallout Shelter gets Crafting
Bethesda’s massively popular Fallout franchise made the jump to mobile in the form of Fallout Shelter and it was updated with crafting and new room support. You can now build a barbershop and there’s more content in the form of weapons and outfits from Fallout 4 that can be crafted. A small but welcome addition is that the environment is reactive to the time of day to give you a proper simulation.

Clash Royale
You’ve probably already played Clash of Clans or at least know about this game. Supercell brings their A-game with Clash Royale on iOS and Android, and you get real time multiplayer duels with large moustaches involved. Clash Royale is also one of the few (if not the only) games to get a full panel of banners on the App Store by Apple.
