Fallout (GURPS) (PC)

Ok ok, so you all know how great this game is right? Well there's nothing wrong with singing a little more praise about it. But I'll try to keep it short. Quite simply, there was a war. A big one. With lots of nukes. Low and behold, radiation poisoning is a plenty. Upper class society now live in what are called vaults, which are basically hollowed out mountains with a giant safe inside. Big enough to support a decent population, so long as there is a working water chip installed in it's water supply, to keep the water clean and safe to drink. Wait a second? What's that? The chip?

Fallout is another computer game set in a post-holocaust era in which humans struggle for survival in a mad-max style world.
