Hiya!
I'ts true the classic turnbased RPG Fallout is free to download from GOG ( good old games ) for the next 48 hours!
What is Fallout?
For those of you who dont know fallout or only know those that bethesda made like Fallout3 and fallout new vegas ill explain what fallout is about.
Fallout
story
In fallout you live in a vault that people seeked refuge when the nuclear war started. Sadly your vaults water purification chip is dying and our vault need a replacement and you are chosen to seek one out from the unforgiven wasteland.
Gameplay
There is a realtime mode that is active when not in combat and you can move and function freely.
The game goes to turnbased mode once the combat starts. You spend action points to shoot/hit/reload/move/etc... Once enough experience is accumulated trough stealing, lockpicking, killing, doing guests, etc. you gain a level and can set your skill points. Once every 3 levels ( 4 if chosen a trait that buffs your skills ) you get to choose a perk that gives you a major bonus on something you have chosen. More and better perks come available once you level up more.
World
The game world is large and you travel on world map to various locations. Setting is barren wasteland but ther are many villages and larger towns along with caves,vaults, ruins, etc. You will meet mutants ghouls, humans, tribals and robots on your travels. Most of them wont like you at first or ever. Also Richard Dean Andersson ( Mac Gyver, Stargate ) voices over Killian Darkwater and he even looks like him.
So what are you waiting for go download and play!!!!!
