What the heck is Ultima?
Ultima is the name of a tremendously successful series of computer role playing games by ORIGIN/Electronic Arts. The series began in 1980 with the eponymous first game, conceived and written by Richard Garriot and published by California Pacific. Since then, there have been twelve additional games in the series and two add-on disks. But then, if you’re reading this FAQ, you must have -some- clue what Ultima is.
