Does Fallout 1 run on Windows 10?

Hi community!

After Fallout 4 has been released, I wanted to play the first part of the saga. But I don't know if it runs at Windows 10! And I also don't want to waste 10$ for a useless game. Please answer me, if the Steam-Version works fine at your Windows 10 PC!

Greatings,
Mr. Assassin

Do I have to activate a special mode or something? Or will it work as every game else?

This belongs in the Fallout 1 game forum, by the way. Not Fallout 4.

It works nicely on that, much like the GOG version... according to my own experience.

I had the same problem. I went to the steamlibrary/steamapps/fallout folder and executed the f1_res_Config.exe and set the graphic mode to 'Basic' and the resolution to what I wanted. clicked 'Done', ran the game and it worked.

It seems to run under classic mode just fine on Win10 64

Even when installing the game from the 1997 CD it works. That's impressive. I just set compatibility mode to Windows 98/ME. Any benefit of the Steam version compared to the original CD? No doubt the turn-based concept is a hindrance to me, but I hope the story and adventuring will make up for it.
