Archon Ultra is an action-strategy video game developed by Free Fall Associates and published by Strategic Simulations in 1994 for MS-DOS. It is a remake of the 1983 game Archon: The Light and the Dark.

Gameplay

An expanded remake of the original game, it adds updated graphics and sound, but also includes additional features, most notably the units have secondary weapons and the battle sequences are shown from an isometric point of view to simulate a third dimension in the battles. It also featured a multiplayer mode via modem.[citation needed]

Reception

Archon Ultra was reviewed in 1994 in Dragon, receiving only 1 out of 5 stars.[1] Other review scores[by whom?] were usually much higher.[weasel words]
