Fallout 76 holotape games are a collection of holotape video games in Fallout 76.
Characteristics[]
The Pip-Boy 2000 Mark VI features the ability to run minigames, which can be accessed if one has found the corresponding holotape for these games. All games have a weight of zero and are worth 300 caps. The holotapes can be used at any time, provided they are in one's inventory, and they can be played on either the Pip-Boy itself or on any terminal. They are also all retro games, to match the theme of Fallout 76, and are based on real-life video games published between 1978 and 1988.
The minigames are:
- Atomic Command, published by Planned Diversion Programming. The goal is to protect eight American monuments from falling atomic bombs. The title and gameplay are a reference to the famous 1980 Atari arcade game Missile Command.
- Automatron, a game published by Planned Diversion Programming, in which the objective is to kill all the robots on screen with the exception of the sentry bot, while saving humans for extra points. Each level adds more and more robots, ending when the players run out of lives. The title and gameplay are both references to the famous 1982 arcade game Robotron: 2084.
- Grognak & the Ruby Ruins, published by Hubris Comics Game Studio, is a turn-based RPG drawing influence from classic CRPG games such as The Bard's Tale, Ultima, and Wasteland.
- Nuka Tapper, a game where the character controls a barman pouring and sliding mugs of Nuka-Cola to his patrons, based on Tapper (1983).
- Pipfall, a game published by Vault Tec Game Studios, where the player must collect all 5 bobbleheads in under 5 minutes, avoiding obstacles and enemies. The title and gameplay are a reference to the famous 1982 Atari 2600 game Pitfall!.
- Red Menace, a game where the character has to dodge the antagonist's barrels. You play as Vault Boy as he climbs ladders, run along platforms, avoids barrels and missiles, as you run up and save the woman from the Red Menace, and engage in several different stages. Based on Donkey Kong (1981).
- Wastelad, published by Hubris Comics Game Studio, is a text-based game with still pictures helping to set the scene and consists of four screen sections: picture box, text box, choice box and character information box listing the character's name, hit points, action points and amount of caps. The title is a reference to the 1988 game Wasteland.
- Zeta Invaders, a game where the player must destroy all the Zeta alien ships before they reach the ground. The title and gameplay are a reference to the famous 1978 arcade game Space Invaders.
