    It just hit me. It is the interface you created.

    I can't find the Dragon Armor anywhere... I've got the sword, the airship, the various amulets...but no armor. Going a little crazy here!!!

    @bonomowj -- You need to visit the town of Shelter and talk to everyone there. It's on a little island on the southwest coast of the big desert.

    This looks like the perfect game to play on a bus. Just wondering, is the world randomly generated with each new game?

    No -- it's carefully hand-crafted :) for a single play through which takes about 8-10 hours.

    Cool thanks. My attention span is so short these days, I don't really get on with long games. 8 hours sounds perfect though :)

    Help!

    I can't seem to find the key for antipathy or Odium or the Abhorrence dungeon at all. Been in holding pattern for the past few hours. Any hope mets would be appreciated! Thx.

    Hey myonesruf, did you find them? Odium's key is hard to find, but the other two should be relatively straightforward. For Odium take a look at page 31 of this thread, my reply to AndyZ on February 13...

    Antipathy

    Bob,

    Thanks found odium key and abhorrence can't get past the locked gate in antipathy. Killing me!

    Sorry about that! I don't have the maps in front of me but I'll check as soon as I can and let you know.

    @myonesruf did you find it? Antipathy is not a complex dungeon
    The key is in the upper left room where you fight a dervish, pretty much the only room on the left. From the start you go up to the T intersection, go left then up after two steps then take the first right. You will cross the stream twice on the way and the room is surrounded by water.

    hi. I have a question! Love the game btw... It is one of the best games ever made for the iPhone... And of course I was a big ultima fan back in the day.. This is amazing!

    So I have the boots, but I see there are still castles that are surrounded by mountains.... The boots get you over the grey colored hills but I still see no way to get over the black colored mountains that surround many other things... I've been all over the map talking to people but no hints in this... What I'm I doing wrong?

    @Wdaytonco, those are related to a later stage of the game. i don't want to spoil it but you will find out how to get in there when you get farther along. Have you gotten through the big four dungeons yet?

    Can't find the Dwarven boots, followed the path:
    Talked to princess, she said talk to Dave in Swansboro. Dave said talk to Reverend. Reverend says where to find the garden key.
    I now have the key, but I have no idea where to use it.

    I just found the door that goes with the key totally at random. An in-game reminder after obtaining it would've been nice.

    Oh my god, I wish. I just finished the game... it took me 12 hours and 53 minutes. It was fun, but I would've been happier if I could've finished it in 5 less hours!

    I must've spent many hours just walking around in circles unsure what to do (probably because I kept forgetting how to check the quest log). At least I beat it without reading any spoilers or checking any faqs. And if you make another game, I'll probably get it. I never played Ultima back in the day, but I watched over the shoulder of my friends who played it.

    Oh, I was also interviewed by Edge magazine recently... I think it's supposed to come out this month... and I spent part of the interview talking about Lowlander. Hope it makes the cut!

    Ha ha, thanks man! Congratulations --I'm sorry it took ~13 hours :)

    Are you the developer of Glorkian Warrior? That's a great game! I am a huge fan of James Kolchalka -- I used to read American Elf every day until it stopped.
