Absolutely it does. But trust me, it's mostly good news. Your dwellers work hard 24/7, gathering resources and leveling up even while you鈥檙e away. Just make sure to manage your resources wisely before closing the game to minimize any...unpleasant 'surprises'.
Yes, and it's the best part! You come back to rewards and progress every time. Just make sure your vault鈥檚 prepared for anything before you log off.
Nah, don't worry too much. It slows down a lot. Basically, the game gives you a break and doesn't let everything go completely bonkers if you're not logged in every second.
