Ultima: Worlds of Adventure 2 – Martian Dreams game description
They are taken to the year 1893, witnessing Percival Lowell prepare a space cannon not unlike the one described in Jules Verne’s works, with the intention of sending humans to Mars. However, due to unforeseen circumstances, the cannon is fired during the World’s Columbian Exposition in Chicago, with several famous people of the time on board. The Avatar and his companions follow, only to be transferred into the mysterious and dangerous world of the Martian civilization.
The second entry in the Worlds of Ultima series is very similar to its predecessor visually and gameplay-wise. Like the first game, it utilizes the Ultima VI engine, and is a top-down role-playing game set in a seamless graphical environment and featuring turn-based party combat. Conversations with characters, interaction with the game world, and acquiring crucial items occupy a significant portion of the gameplay. Many supporting characters are famous real-world figures from the depicted time period, such as Marie Curie, Sigmund Freud, Nikola Tesla, and others.
