Description

The original Ultima I was a pioneering product that established new standards in fantasy role-playing games. Journey back to the First Era of the Dark Ages and embark on the original quests of the Ultima chronicles.

It is a dark time. For many years, the Lands of Britannia prospered and flourished under the benevolent rule of Lord British. Unbeknownst to the inhabitants of Britannia, the evil wizard Mondain was slowly strengthening his magical powers and increasing his hordes of foul denizens - patiently awaiting the proper time to seize the lands. Through subtle exertions of his magical power, Mondain was able to stir dissent among the Lords of the land and render them ineffective by factional wars. Then, he did release his minions upon Britannia and crush the people beneath his evil will. And thus the First Era of the Dark Ages came upon the Lands of Britannia.

The original Ultima I was a pioneering product that established new standards in fantasy role-playing games and started what has become the best-selling saga in the history of computer gaming. Now, Origin Systems brings you the new Ultima I, a significant enhancement to the original, completely rewritten in assembly language and employing state of the art graphics.

Journey back to the First Era of the Dark Ages and embark on the original quest of the Ultima chronicles.
