Description
As computers evolve, we risk losing classic games from the not-so-distant past. One of these, Ultima 7, an RPG from the early 1990's, still has a huge following, and many consider it to be one of the most immersive games ever produced.
Exult is a project to recreate Ultima 7 for modern operating systems, using the game's original plot, data, and graphics files. It enables play of Ultima VII: The Black Gate and Ultima VII Part Two: Serpent Isle, and their corresponding expansion disks Forge of Virtue and Silver Seed, on modern machines.
In order to play these games, data files from the original games are needed.
