Ultima 2: Revenge of the Enchantress

Ultima 2 asks the pressing question: what if you mixed time travel with fantasy and a truly mean sorceress named Minax? The answer is chaos. You’ll bounce between eras—from prehistoric landscapes to futuristic space colonies—armed mostly with determination and a questionable fashion sense. The combat is clunky, and the world design feels like it was drawn during a caffeine rush, but there’s an undeniable charm. Few games let you swing a sword at a barbarian one moment and then stroll down the streets of San Francisco the next. The revenge may be Minax’s, but the confusion is all yours.
