Ultima VII

Ultima VII: The Black Gate

Year: 1992
Platform(s): PC
Designer(s): Richard Garriott
Developer: Origin
Publisher: Origin

"The Black Gate built on the legacy of the Ultima games, pushing lead character Avatar into a new adventure of murder and mystery. The real draw in this particular entry though is the freedom developer Origin gave players, allowing them to do pretty much whatever they want. Not only is there a compelling main story that takes Avatar all around Brittania, but there are ample side-quests and enough simple activities -- making food, moving and building items, etc -- that you'll quickly learn that this is more a life simulator than a mere role-playing game. The gameplay surpasses anything previously in the series, giving players real-time control over battles, and better item and party management." - IGN
