Oh man, Ultima Underworld was mind-blowing in its time.

The sequel was pretty good too. They’re both on GOG, btw, And have aged pretty well. The graphics aren’t so good, but the story and gameplay are still pretty great. I still replay them (and the Myst games) from time to time.

Oh, I played them both. I didn't really care for II's splitting the game into 8 "worlds", I preferred the original's single huge dungeon, but I did enjoy it.

It did get annoying having to run back and forth through all of the worlds, but some were very cool, like the one with the fighting arenas. And the tomb with all the levels. And the story was awesome.
