It's also The Sims, Minecraft and a Tower Defence game!
Well, sort of. What is included within Fallout 4 is the option to create your own home and settlement. Here, you can create the layout of your building and decide what kind of filthy, post-nuclear furniture to fill it with. You can even choose a kennel for your dog companion - awwww!
As your settlement grows, other people will arrive, including traders. This means no more travelling about looking for one, they'll literally be on your doorstep.
But the most fun aspect of this part of the game looks to be tower defence-style elements. Your settlement will be attacked by bandits at some stage, so you need some good deterrents. These armaments have to be powered and connected to generators, so it's up to you to make sure they're receiving enough juice to work. You can even connect a terminal to this power network, allowing you to control all your electronics from one point. Amazing!
