  • Ultima for Plus/4?

    From cbmeeks@3:770/3 to All on Tue Nov 28 06:11:09 2017
    I was wondering if Ultima (or any game like Ultima) was ever developed for the Plus/4?

    The Plus/4 seems like it would be a pretty good computer for those type of games because they wouldn't need fast scrolling or lots of sprites (software sprites that is).

    Other than the two note tone generator, it seems the Plus/4 is missing out on a
    great genre of games.

    Thanks!

    Sadly not, although I agree it would easily run in a Plus/4.
