Akalabeth: World of Doom
was the predecessor to the Ultima Series, although there appears
to be some debate as to where it fits in the Ultima Timeline.
According to what has become the accepted Ultima
Timeline, Akalabeth occurs before the Ultima series begins
with Ultima 1. However, Trigon
Dragon's site observes that the game could well fit in
between Ultima 1 and Ultima 2, as it seems to involve only
cleaning up a rash of monsters after Mondain's death.
Written entirely in BASIC, Akalabeth was originally released
in 1980, on 5 1/4" diskettes and on cassette. It was re-released
in 1980 (exclusively on 5 1/4" diskette) and again in 1981
(on 5 1/4" diskette). |
