[Found: Ultima VIII: Pagan] Looking for a game...
Hi,
I'm looking for a game which I never actually played. I think I saw it in an Amiga Power magazine. I'm sure the graphics are isometric and I remember a knight, grass, water and possibly a bridge. I think the name contained "Ultima" but I'm not sure. I don't even know if it was an unreleased game. Any ideas? Thanks |

I've looked it up in HOL, but didn't find it. It's not 'The Final Battle', looks interesting though . I remember the knight jumping up and being dressed in red, I don't know if that's helpful or not.
I've lost the magazine since then, I'll try to find it in the AMR. |

Found it. It's "Ultima VIII: Pagan". It must have been a preview I saw. Was it ever released on the Amiga?
By the way. If you can give me the titles of some isometric RPGs like Hero Quest and Legend I won't mind. |

The last officially released Ultima on the amiga was VI, there's an open source conversion of VII for the Amiga as well but that's where it stops.

A decent link, you can see at a glance what is isometric, what is first-person. |

Nice link. No Deuteros in there though... (I'm quite fond of that game)

Deuteros isn't an RPG.

Yeah, well I doubt that guy covers every RPG anyway. And another thing, some RPGs use first-person but change to isometric during battles, so some screenshots might be misleading.
It's a good start though, I think. Anyone know of a good site that specifically covers Amiga RPGs with good write-ups and screenshots ? |

Man great site! Better screenshots and some of the games have decent write-ups. Pity they're in Polish... |
