FALLOUT (video game franchise) + HALLOWEEN (holiday) = “FALLOWEEN”
The FALLOWEEN photo challenge was issued by Mrs P on Twitter. There were spooky prompts for each day of October, inspiring players to take screenshots in Fallout 3, Fallout: New Vegas, Fallout 4, Fallout Shelter and Fallout 76.
Fall is my favorite time of the year and Halloween my favorite festival, so I set myself the goal of posting at least one picture for every day of the month.
Here’s what I came up with… (click on the links to see more photos)
