Fallout 2 CE is still in early stages of development, so all kind of bugs and crashes are to be expected.
Touchscreen is supported, but interaction with UI elements may require double tap on them.

Installation
You must own the game to play. Purchase your copy on GOG or Steam. Download latest release or build from source.

Download and copy fallout2-ce.exe to your Fallout2 folder. It serves as a drop-in replacement for fallout2.exe.

Use Windows installation as a base - it contains data assets needed to play. Copy Fallout2 folder somewhere, for example /home/john/Desktop/Fallout2.

NOTE: macOS 11 or higher is required. The app is not universal. It should run on Apple Silicon under Rosetta 2, but I haven't tried it.
