Description
Set in the aftermath of a world-wide nuclear war, Fallout will challenge you to survive in an unknown and dangerous world. You will take the role of a Vault-dweller, a person who has grown up in a secluded, underground survival Vault. Circumstances arise that force you to go Outside - to a strange world 80 years after the end of modern civilization. A world of mutants, radiation, gangs and violence.

Your immediate task is to find a replacement for the broken water purification controller chip. Without that chip, your fellow Vault dwellers are doomed to dehydration or will be forced to leave the safety of the Vault for the Outside.

The core of the game revolves around your character. Fallout uses a skill-based system to allow you to fine tune your character. As you gain experience (roughly half from combat, the other half from solving adventure seeds and non-combat events), your character will grow as you determine. Combat in Fallout is tactical turn-based. You can take as much time as you need to make decisions. Choose from different types of attacks, with a variety of weapons and attack skills.

An All-Time Classic

This is oine of the core PC RPGs. Some elements may not have aged as well as they could have, but it's still totally worth playing.

A classic, although not one of the best

Fallout is one of the most important video game pioneers, revolutionizing video game role-playing like no other. But it is obviously a first attempt. The world is of course intriguing and well written overall, but it is not particularly content heavy. It could do with more quests and more role-playing, but if anything Interplay was just saving themselves for Fallout 2. This is still a must-play and a fine RPG, every Fallout fan should play it.

Most dated timeless game of all time.

I've replayeded recently on Steam, it really can use some polish but undoubtedly a milestone in video game storytelling.

Amazing game with issues

During my playthrough, the included widescreen mod was somehwat broken. When launching the game, I would have to window it after hitting "play" or else it would crash. I also had multiple memory related crashes somehow? The game is still great fun, if very dated. It's also very easy to ruin your build, so be careful.
