    Product Information
    A true leader of the pack, Ultima Underworld used a fully 3D first-person perspective a full year before Wolfenstein 3D hit store shelves. Not only was it impressive visually for the time, but it was introduced some neat gameplay elements into the action-RPG arena, such as altering the speed and power of attacks by direct control and introducing 3D puzzle elements. Ultima Underworld was an amazingly rich title that showed the world that first-person engines were capable of a lot more than simple shoot-em-ups before there were even any 3D shooters.

    Ultima Underworld: The Stygian Abyss (PC Games)

    Created: 11/04/09
    Ultima Underworld: The Stygian Abyss is a first-person computer role-playing game (CRPG) developed by Blue Sky Productions (later Looking Glass Studios) and published by Origin Systems. It was released on March 27, 1992. It takes place in the fantasy setting of the Ultima series, inside the Great Stygian Abyss; a large, underground area that contains the remnants of a failed utopian civilization. The player assumes the role of series' protagonist "the Avatar" and attempts to find and rescue a baron's kidnapped daughter.

    It was the first role-playing game to use true 3D graphics, and features many technological innovations, such as allowing the player to look up and down. It combines inspiration from earlier CRPGs like Wizardry and Dungeon Master with simulation elements, which led the game's designers to label it a "dungeon simulation". As such, the game is non-linear and contains emergent gameplay.

    Ultima Underworld received widespread critical acclaim and sold nearly half a million copies. It was later placed on numerous "hall of fame" lists. A wide range of developers have claimed it as an influence, including Bethesda Softworks and Valve Corporation. In 1993, the game received a sequel, Ultima Underworld II: Labyrinth of Worlds.

    Great game for older systems and old handhelds. Fun graphics with out a heavy demand on CPU system resources.
