Reviewed By: Old_gamer on 20 Dec 2020I can’t help but be amazed at the work and love brought to this game here. Ultima sets the bar unlike anything. One of my old school favorites gets a absolute upgrade to new heights.
From a much better written script to new bosses, equipment, party swapping, super bosses, many new dungeons and now a new game + with increased level cap? There is so much new content here it’s a complete delight. A gold standard in ROM hacking that deserves respect and really gives us the game never thought possible.
Playing this makes me feel like a kid once again with that excitement. Who knows what is next?
