Dear GOG friends,

Some of us are privileged/spoiled enough to own a windows tablet PC. The new baytrail atom processor x86 tablet seem to be sufficient for most GOG games I own. I wish to make a list to share my experiences with GOG gaming on the baytrail atom tablet. I am not using any keyboard or mouse device, just touch screen. I would welcome anyone to add to this list, so that we can find more GOG games to enjoy on our windows tablet pc.

I also have several GOG games that don't work on tablet. If anyone has fixes, please don't hesitate to share.

here is a my limited list, which will be expanded later:
Baldur's Gate 2 - Works great. To use a keyboard, simply play game in windowed mode, and switch back.
Fallout 1, 2 - "Failed to initialize hardware " error message. damn thing problaby needs a mouse
Heroes of Might and magic 3 & 4 - works great.
Imperialism 2 - works great
Master of Magic - does not even start. Probably dosbox related issue?

I think you can play FTL on Tablets.

Trade in the windows junk. Buy a decent android tablet and use dosbox turbo. It's updated constantly and plays just about everything under the moon, at excellent speeds.

Old Windows tablets may have been pure crap but ones like the Dell Venue 8 Pro and other bay trail ones like the OP is talking about are very fine and capable machines for $300 or less if you get them on sale. You have a full version of Windows 8, good battery life and a pretty good real quad core CPU so running actual low end and older PC games is more than possible.

That said to the OP have you tried any point and click games on it yet? I was looking into getting a bay trail tablet next year as it would be faster than my actual work laptop so this is a thread I'll keep watch of.

indeed. i'm already having trouble with games like Stronghold HD. Its not touch friendly.

It is hit or miss. Heroes of Might and magic 3 works really well. I'm looking for ways to make Fallout 1 & 2 work though.... Some people found wide screen mods... hope there is a way for the program to bypass the requirement of mouse input. Let's see you run Heroes of Might and magic 3 in campaign mode. You can't.

Do you mean one of those web based games that need Flash player? I'll keep you posted...

A game on GOG call "Triple town" works very well on touch, just tried it. I am guessing this is a point and click game.

Would be nice if GOG maintained "controller" requirements for games, e.g. showing whether a game needs mouse, kb, a gamepad, etc.

Shadowrun Returns supposedly works very well.

I read somewhere that Fallout 2 with some mod works as well.
