Springvale

Fallout 3: Game of the Year Edition guide · Early exploration near the vault exit
← All areas in this guide

Springvale is a ruined suburban town located just down the hill from the Vault 101 entrance. It serves as an early stop where players can scavenge supplies, deal with a few hostile pests, and find a resident with ties to a debt quest in nearby Megaton.

Shops and people

  • Silver: Sells nothing initially, but can pay out 300 or 400 caps to resolve Colin Moriarty's debt.

Tips

  • If you speak to Colin Moriarty in Megaton first, he will send you to collect caps from Silver in Springvale, giving you a chance to resolve the situation peacefully, through violence, or with speech checks.
  • Don't miss checking the mailboxes outside the ruined houses, as several contain minor loot, ammunition, or skill books.
