What players say

Players split sharply: longtime Ultima fans praise its quirky charm and storytelling, while newcomers call it dated and broken. The time limit (100 days) and buggy character creation frustrate many, but those who persevere enjoy a branching world with ultima-style exploration. Several note the game shipped unfinished and lacks music.
