Ultima I - The Original

The world is chaotic and oppressed as the evil Mondain reigns unchallenged. Strange creatures and villains roam the countryside searching for travelers to prey upon. You are the only hope for return to a peaceful life. It will take time to gather the strength and wisdom needed for your ultimate showdown with Mondain. So begin now. Travel through dungeons, land, sea and space in Ultima I, the original fantasy role-playing game created by master game designer Lord British.

Considered one of the most influential progenitors of the role-playing genre, Ultima is a follow-up to Akalabeth. It utilizes a similar basic gameplay system, including graphical 2D world map and town exploration, and 3D vector-line maze-like dungeons. The player controls a single character who must complete a number of quests, vanquishing monsters and leveling up in process. Equipment and food are available for sale in towns. The game mixes medieval fantasy and sci-fi elements, and includes a few space combat simulation segments.
