I would like information about a game, ULTIMA II, that I recently saw running on an IBM PC. ... Is it any good (given that I like Rogue)? Where can it be bought, for how much? How long until you "solve it" or get bored with it? Thanks. Dick wexelblat (...decvax!ittvax!wxlvax!rlw)

Perhaps I should have replied by mail, but ... Ultima II is a *very* nice game, good implementation, good graphics, good ideas. It's basically another D&D type game, just a bit slicker and with nice graphics. I played it for about three weeks straight with no boredom, there were always new things to figure out. There was one minor bug which allowed you to generate an infinite number of ships but it took some weird moves to cause it so ... I'm just waiting for the next issue of it. -- David C.
