As the seventh installment in the Avatar series, The Black Gate starts another episode called The Guardian Saga. It surely is a revolutionary game, both in terms of detailed graphics, rich and interactive world, and complex game mechanics. The game pretty much offers the possibility of doing whatever one wishes, as all the elements of the world have some kind of function. Ultima VII, coming on a dozen diskettes, is one of the biggest games released before the era of CDs.

Carefully designed engine allows us to observe the world in an isometric view. What’s important, the improvements in graphics did not make the plot second rate.

In The Black Gate, we go back to the world of Britannia after 200 years of absence. Troubling news about ritual crimes come from all over the land, and a mysterious organization - known only as The Fellowship - gains incredible popularity among the people. We must investigate and conduct a long and thorough search in order to find and defeat the Guardian, who is the true leader of The Fellowship. In our travel through Britannia, we are accompanied by the old friends: Iolo, Dupree and Shamino.
