Ultima IV

    Ultima IV is the fourth installment of a trilogy called the Age of the Avatar. Aside from being an RPG style game, It was a game ported for the Apple II. Unlike the Atari, Apple II featured music and more colors.

​

    Gameplay-wise, it is the journey of an adventurer, which you play, exploring through dungeons. Unlike most games, in the 1900s, Ultima IV  considers ethical decisions through its “era of darkness” timeline. Ultima IV does so by being able to converse with NPCs that will perform different actions based on responses. The game consists of many pixels that depict an image of a noun.  Such nouns include shields, armor, people, bricks, water, and even dirt. Animation-wise, characters would loop between mainly two pixels when idle but can feature an attack pixel when assaulting. Overall, It is a game with easy to depict pixels among with NPCs, mobs, companions, and loot to obtain or conquer.
