Only in the arena of Ultima II can you travel throughout the solar system, explore deep dark deadly dungeons, dine at your favorite restaurant, meet prominent people within the computer industry, and be seduced in a bar.
Ultima II by Richard Garriott/Lord British was first released in 1983 by Sierra On-Line. The sorceress Minax was the lover and apprentice of the first game's villain Mondain, and she now threatens the world by traveling through time and space via magical gates. This is the only main Ultima game with box art not by Denis Loubet, and lacks any clear signature or art credit on the box or within the manual.

The moment of truth has arrived—met with a storm of acclaim and a whirlwind of excitement! Ultima's enemy is Ultima. The original RPG shows its true colors: the greater the challenge, the higher the excitement and emotional intensity soar! Your journey takes place in the Kingdom of Britannia. Your goal is to gather seven companions, cultivate eight virtues—courage, justice, honesty, devotion, compassion, humility, honor, and spirituality—and ultimately become an Avatar of Virtue. The era of simply defeating enemies is over. True enemies are the dark impulses that dwell within one's own heart. Many warriors have already set out on this quest to conquer that inner darkness and attain sainthood. Come now—if you are a true hero, you cannot turn away from this journey! Redefining the landscape of excitement and emotion—the ultimate RPG is taking the world by storm! ~Ad Caption [BMT🤖]

Ultima I

Sending people party invitations that contain codes telling you to hold the paper over fire (but not burn it) and then put it in the freezer to get the real message convinces me that Richard Garriott is the kind of person edutainment games, books, and cartoons were warning us about.
