Playing with others is easy, and the dungeons-so far-are fairly well-balanced if a bit on the easy side, perhaps to encourage people to play. I forget I’m in a free-to-play game, quite honestly, and instead focus on the current quest I’m on. While the constant gathering of bronze keys and converting them to silver adds a secondary grind to the typical MMO experience, Ultima Forever continues to offer fun gameplay. Ultima Forever: Quest for the Avatar is a delightful top-down MMO that’s easy to play without spending a dime. The path-finding can be a bit tricky at times, sending me back into villages with a load screen when I want to walk around it, but is fairly easily managed. It’s a simple tap of the grouping button to ask anyone nearby to join up in a dungeon run, which are themselves helpfully labeled with the level requirements and the typical time it takes to finish them-essential information in a mobile MMO. Stand around any dungeon entrance for a bit, and players will get invited to group up fairly quickly. Groups are easily created and disbanded, and the connection to Facebook makes it simple to quest with friends. Special powers and moves are unleashed with a tap as well, making the entire experience casual enough for mobile play yet challenging enough to keep players interested. Players target enemies with a tap, which can sometimes miss and send their avatar too close (if a ranged mage, for example) to an enemy, but rarely is this a battle-ending mistake. The combat is both simple and frantic waves of enemies as well as tougher bosses and mini-bosses offer enough challenge without too much difficulty. Higher-level characters can then enter higher-level dungeons, getting better loot and higher experience points.

Once the tutorial level is finished, it’s off to Castle Britannia, where players will immerse themselves in helping Lady British, Lord British’s daughter, who is now Queen of the Realm.
