Sierra literally invented graphic adventures but playing those games was often a pain. Personally I never finished any Sierra adventure. Lucasarts perfected the game design, introduced point and click, and made those games fun to play. No surprise lucasarts adventures are still loved today

You are right, the EGA version looks very similar to the Atari ST one. It’s not bad. Anyway the Amiga one is better. I am actually surprised the Amiga version is not a simple port of the Atari ST, it was a common practice, instead they remade it for the Amiga.

I didn’t have a NES so I only tried the NES version recently on the emulator and I was surprised how good it is. But yeah clearly the original is better.

Ultima VII cover Ultima VII (1992) for PC Character stats in Ultima VII Ultima VII (1992) for PC

Ultima VII: The Black Gate (1992). NPCs had daily schedules. Bread baked in real ovens. You could pick up and move almost any object in the world. I spent so many hours on this game. Still one of the greatest RPGs ever made. πŸ—‘οΈ #RetroGaming #DOS #Ultima #RPG
