About
OpenMW is a new engine for 2002's Game of the Year, The Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind. It aims to be a fully playable (and improved!), open source implementation of the game's engine and functionality (including mods). You will still need the original game data to play OpenMW.

- Flatpak sandbox
- Wide access
Runs in a sandbox, but a broad part of it is open — typical for tools that need to manage your files or system. It shows what the app is able to do, not what it does.
What it can access
- Reads and changes all your files
- Can access all devices, including cameras and USB
- Plays and records audio
