Shroud of the Avatar
Welcome to my Shroud of the Avatar (SotA) page. Here I will record my experiences, findings, and advice about my adventures in New Britannia.
My experience in the Ultima universe dates back to my childhood. I have played Ultima 1 – 9, both Ultima Underworlds, and Akalabeth. I played U1-8 on the Commodore 64. I have replayed them all with the Ultima Collection on the PC. I have played some of the fan-made games and patches, such as Exult. I have played nearly everything in this genre with the exception of Ultima Online.
One day, curious what was new with Ultima, I did a search and found SotA, just two days before go live. It had been in “early access” mode for quite some time. So, sadly, I was not a backer during early development of this game. But once in I was hooked! SotA is deep, interactive game that allows you to adventure alone or team up with other players on grand adventures. I have had much fun, and made many new friends, in New Britannia.
Give it a try. You, too, may enjoy it as I have. Episode 1 is free to play. Episode 2 is in development, and Early Access costs $19 USD. You can find the download here. This is not a shameless plug, as I do not get a dime for a recruiting new players. But I do enjoy adventuring with them! :-)
