The first thing you notice when you read the story and play that game is that it does not take place in Sosaria (the location from Ultima I), but rather Earth. Over time, the monsters and the darkness end up destroying Earth, so it is up to you to save it. After some time, time portals start appearing around Earth followed by monsters and darkness. Over the years it is rumored that Mondain (the big bad you beat in Ultima I) had an apprentice named, Minax.
Ultima II takes place many years after Ultima I. I ended up playing the EGA version, which in turn looked much like the DOS port of UItima I, which was released for DOS in 1986.
Ultima iii end Patch#
I did some research and found a fan made patch that upgrades the graphics to EGA, fixes some bugs and turns off an autosave feature. When I tried to play this version through GOG and dosbox, I noticed some screen artifacts. It featured CGA graphics, which were standard for the time. The version I played was released for DOS in 1983. In it you explore Earth from an overhead perspective, explore dungeons from a first person perspective and battle a bunch of monsters. It has similar graphics and features to Ultima I.
Ultima II is a role playing game that was developed for the Apple ][ and released in 1982. So what did I think? Read on and find out. I knew before starting this game that this is the weakest of the Ultima games, but given that I am trying to play and beat them all, I had to put myself through it. I recently finished up Ultima I: The First Age of Darkness, so it was time to fire up Ultima II: Revenge of the Enchantress.
