Play Ultima VII: Part Two – Serpent Isle Online

Game Overview

Ultima VII: Part Two – Serpent Isle is one of those RPGs that sticks with you. You start off following a map to this weird, forgotten island—Lord British’s idea, naturally—and before long, you’re knee-deep in a place where everything’s gone sideways. The locals are all about Order, Chaos, and Balance, but none of it’s working right, so guess who gets to fix it? Yeah, you.

The world feels alive in a way most games still don’t. NPCs actually remember what you’ve done, and the inventory system finally stops fighting you (mostly). Combat’s real-time but with enough little quirks to keep it interesting—your party does their own thing unless you micromanage, which… good luck with that. It’s more story-driven than the first Ultima VII, but there’s still plenty to poke at off the beaten path.

Also, the digitized character portraits? Weirdly charming, even now. Just don’t expect sunshine and rainbows—this one gets dark in places.

Each game uses different controls, most DOS games use the keyboard arrows. Some will use the mouse , "Alt" ,"Enter" and "Space bar".
