In the Britannia castle, the Avatar learns that his abductors were gargoyles, a race of enigmatic creatures who have recently invaded Britannia and occupied the shrines of Virtue.

Ultima VI is notable for having a fully continuous world.
There is no "world map" in the game; all the locations are seamlessly connected to each other, turning the game world into an open environment.
Compared to the previous installments in the series, the game focuses more on quests and exploration rather than on combat.
The latter no longer involves separate screens; battles occur during exploration, without any transitions.
The turn-based system from the previous games has been preserved.
The interface has been re-designed, the original key-bound commands co-existing with selectable command icons and mouse-based interaction.
The game world is more detailed than in the previous games, with a large number of various objects that can be manipulated or added to the inventory.

Like in the predecessors, the player is free to explore the game world from the beginning of the game, and visit locations in an
About Super Nintendo Entertainment System
The Super Nintendo Entertainment System (1990/1991) is widely regarded as home to one of the strongest first-party libraries in gaming history, from Super Metroid to Chrono Trigger. It's a mature collecting market: iconic RPGs and late-cycle releases (which typically had smaller print runs as the industry moved toward the next generation) are consistently among the most sought-after and valuable cartridges from the 16-bit era.
Gamevaro tracks Ultima VI: The False Prophet for Super Nintendo Entertainment System with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.

Rarity & condition
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for Ultima VI: The False Prophet, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common Super Nintendo Entertainment System titles.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
