Andrea Contato’sThrough the Moongate, per its Kickstarter page, “illuminates the path of the Ultima games’ history and the creative people behind this landmark series. It also covers some of Origin’s other games, especially Wing Commander, and touches on several contemporary titles. Many of these tales have never before been told.” The book “aims to be a more complete account of Origin’s history than has ever been presented before.” This week covers the founding of Sierra On-Line by Ken and Roberta Williams, Richard Garriott’s college struggles, and how he ultimately found a home for Ultima 2 at the Williams’ adventure gaming company.
