Ultima VIII Add-On - The Lost Vale

History:
This is a game which was not meant to exist. Like the third Worlds of Ultima game, Arthurian Legends, the Lost Vale was finally cancelled due to bad sales. It was planned to release an extra scenario which explains more about the Zealan civilisation, in fact there even is a locked door somewhere in Pagan which was intended to lead into the vale. Electronic Arts claims that they have "accidently" deleted the sourcecode for the game, so it is very unlikely that it will ever be released. Too bad, it cuts off another large part of the storyline. All that ever leaked out of development are the box cover and some screenshots.

A Zealan shield and some statues.
Deep ones in Pagan?


Background:
Lithos the earth titan sealed the Zealans in the Lost Vale and this is where they will stay since the add-on has not been completed. Some guys wrote the one or the other fan-fiction about this subject, but this is only a weak substitute for the original.

Feeding the Avatar to the Lurker.
Snow cannot be found in the rest of Pagan.


Recommended Version:
The Lost Vale was planned to be an extension of the PC game Ultima 8 but unfortunately it is only vaporware by now.

More Zealan artifacts.
A strange column.


Statistics:
