Does the Vault Number Matter in Fallout Shelter?
Actually, it's all cosmetic. Your vault number doesn’t impact the game mechanics or the resources available to you. It’s just a cool way to differentiate your vault from the millions of others out there. Some folks like to use numbers from the Fallout lore for a bit of extra flavor, but it’s totally up to you!

I used my birthday for my vault number and everything’s been going smoothly. Not sure if it’s luck or just because the number’s got no real effect, lol.
Nah, the vault number in Fallout Shelter is mostly for show. Think of it as a way to uniquely identify your vault or to add a personal touch. Some players choose their lucky number, a significant date, or just a random combo. Gameplay-wise, it doesn't affect your vault's success or the challenges you face. So, feel free to pick whatever number makes your vault feel like home!
Just pick any number, it really doesn't matter. It's like naming your pet rock.
