The description of Fallout 1

The game starts in the devastating nuclear war world; nearly half of the population is wiped out of the earth. The civilization has been removed thus earth stands as a huge wasteland and most of the inhabitants are mutated creatures. A small number of humans survived and created communities. 

They are mostly scavengers while some have managed to reach the safety of the vault, deep undergrounding dwelling during the war. The protagonist or the player in Fallout 1 is tasked to fix the water purification controlled chip in vault 13. Without clean water, the people will die in a few days. The player has to find a replacement chip on the surface and face the abomination that waits.

Does this game have any skill points or awards?

The skill points are awarded when the player levels up but traits are assigned during character creation. But the advantages are gained every three character levels. Players can upgrade eighteen different skills in the game in the combat, active and passive categories. In the combat skill category, weapon proficiency matters the most. 

But active skills are even more important in this role-playing (RPG) game used for support or interaction with the environment. Passive skills are mostly designed for social interaction. These traits provide benefits upon the character but also impose penalties. Players in Fallout 1 have to constantly develop and customize attributes, skills, and perks. The player is given a considerable amount of freedom to improve the protagonist's combat efficiency and social behaviors.
