Yeah. I definitely agree with this one...especially the easy combat bit. I remember fairly early in the game, I thought it'd have some challenge, as I remember going out of my way to avoid wisps after a bad experience or two.

Thanks...I guess it's a small mercy that there's not much substance to the game given how disappointing it is. I remember my first reaction was, they have all the items from the PC version, but it's really nothing like it. Took me a while to realize I had a right to those expectations.

Hi - my name is Joshua Riley. I co-host a NES podcast called The Nesessary Podcast where we aim play all the NES games - 5 randomly selected NES games a week and have a live conversation about our experiences. This "week's" draw was Ultima V: Warriors of Destiny. This game is ruthlessly dull and impenetrable. I have read your review which seems outrageously accurate. It is a part of this podcast project that we thank the heroes that do the hard work of explaining these things to the people and I draw on these reviews and walkthroughs constantly. So, thank you for your work. I really struggled with this title and it was a solace to read your review here.

Hi Joshua, thanks and I'm glad I could be of help! Part of the reason I was so disappointed in U5 for the NES was that U5 for the Apple/PC was so good. I could rave on about U5 on other platforms.
