The last
Ultima game released by
Origin without undue pressure from post-acquisition owner
Electronic Arts.
It is an example of one of the most complete and self-sufficient game universes that was seen for even a decade after its release.
An add-on,
Serpent Isle was released a year later in 1993 and a
University of Florida masters student created a modified, multiplayer, version some years later.
The game included several thinly-veiled references to Electronic Arts and the developers' perception of the behemoth publisher in relation to the smaller studio.
