Ultima Underworld

The Avatar decides to travel there once again.

Upon his arrival, he witnesses the kidnapping of Baron Almric's daughter.

Found guilty of the crime, the Avatar is thrown into the Great Stygian Abyss with the choice of either finding the girl or rotting in the dungeon.

On his journey, he will have to get along with the many inhabitants of the dungeon, who are survivors of a failed colony, and eventually find out that there's much more to this kidnapping than meets the eye.

Ultima Underworld: The Stygian Abyss is commonly considered the first role-playing game with fluid first-person movement in a real 3D environment.

Unlike earlier first-person RPGs such as Dungeon Master or Eye of the Beholder , the player can move in every direction and the graphics are updated continually.

The player is also able to look up and down with the press of a key, jump, and swim.

The dungeon is not made entirely of corridors and rooms arranged in a rectangular fashion but has a lot of variety: slopes, stairs, bridges, underground rivers, and more.

The game's combat system is action-oriented.

The player has to draw his weapon, aim at his opponent, and hold the cursor over the game screen to inflict damage; the longer the player holds it, the stronger is the attack.

Some weapons have different types of attacks, depending on where the cursor is held: for example, jabs are executed when the cursor is near the bottom of the screen, while slashes are performed with the cursor in the middle.

At the beginning of the game, the player chooses the gender, the class, and the initial skills for the Avatar.

Skills include various weapon proficiencies, lockpicking, bartering, and others.

They can be increased by reciting mantras at special shrines after having accumulated a sufficient amount of experience points.

Ultima Underworld for PlayStation is currently worth €80.00 loose. Prices are based on real sales and update regularly on Gamevaro.

Ultima Underworld has only a handful of tracked market sales, suggesting relative scarcity compared to more common PlayStation titles.

Loose means cartridge or disc only, CIB (complete in box) includes the original box and manual, and sealed means factory-sealed and never opened. These are tracked as separate market values because the price gap between them can be significant, especially for older releases.
