Deal Details
GOG has Ultima 4: Quest of the Avatar (PC/Mac Digital Download) for Free.

Thanks to Community Member BraveCorn7032 for finding this deal.

Details:
  • The evil triad of Mondain, Minax, and the hellspawn Exodus have been vanquished and peace reigns throughout the land of Britannia. Evil yet abounds, but in isolated pockets and in the hearts of men. A new age awaits the coming of one who can conquer evil on all frontiers through mastery of both magic and the use of force. Daemons, dragons, and long-dead wizards still plague the countryside and must be destroyed. The seeker on the path of the Avatar will face hostile groups composed of mixed enemy types and will survive such encounters only by strategic use of weapons and terrain. Earthly victories over seemingly impossible odds lead to the final conflict, where the ultimate challenge - the self - awaits.

Just splurged and treated myself to an EGA monitor. Those 16 colors at a time are going to be sweet!

Wow, I remember playing this as a kid, I beat all the Dungeons spent hours during my summer playing I didn't make it to the end though can't remember why now it's many decades ago... I think I ended up "going outside" playing with my neighbors and school friends more. Nostalgic, but I don't have the time to play through I'd love to see the ending. Perhaps it taught me some problem solving skills and helped me build an imagination to explore more as a child. I tried to just use my memory, but I had to have a notebook at some pt Smilie Thank you for sharing this game has a special place in my heart. I think i'll get it since it's FREE ha!

A classic masterpiece. Rarely an open world game that doesn't even have a villain. Loving the concept and story. U5 following it actually just as good, if not better.

That's what you need to play U7. This was 8 Mhz 286 with 512 kB. With the EGA monitor (E is for Enhanced!). Comes with Preachy Virtues!

Don't forget to get the Ultima patcher, or something similar to get some modern quality of life improvements.

It works for many of the Ultima games and isn't hard to use.

Evidently ScummVM now supports it natively with enhancements too.

Can you still hex edit your character stats to have FF strength and dexterity so you can kill anything including guards with just a dagger, and steal anything with impunity?

I reached the end twice and failed the final task or quest/quiz of whatever it was. That 2nd time stung really badly!!

Even in its day this was a tough sell to a lot of players. My first foray in to Ultima were the questionable NES versions. Love the series, though. I would love to see the final trilogy remade somehow, except the last time anyone showcased that it was cancelled fast.

Download size: 12MB
Manual: 10MB
Spellbook: 14MB

Humor aside, this is a DRM-free, no-internet-required game. Good thing too since it predates the internet.

I have this from a previous offer, but prefer to play on a handheld emulator TBH.
