    1. There is no build to download: get the code from the project's repository.
    2. Build it as its README says. What the build gives, a program to run or the original game rebuilt for an emulator, is written there too.
    3. The project's page says what it needs from your own copy of Ultima VII: The Black Gate, if anything.

From SubmitGame's list, read Oct 21, 2026, with releases, stars and licenses as each project's repository gives them. The steps are the same for every project of a kind: its own page has the details.

Under the hood: every project behind it, its license and code, how they connect, and who made them.

About

It has been two centuries since the Avatar last appeared in our good kingdom. Some have written that at last it is possible to interpret the tales of the Avatar as they should be, with the proper historical perspective. Some argue that as time moves on, the truth of what actually occurred will fade even further away and that we have a responsibility to preserve the legends as we now know them. However, most agree when it comes to a number of basic theories. While there are those who maintain that the stories of the Avatar are only myths, practically all credible scholars say that at least some elements of the Avatar’s tales are historical fact. In reality, one need look no further than the Isle of the Avatar to see very persuasive evidence that the Avatar did indeed exist - at least as a person if not as a spiritual being! It is most likely that there has been more than one Avatar. All of the writings insist that the Avatar who negotiated the peace between Britannia and the gargoyles is the one and same person who first appeared to vanquish the sorcerer Mondain those many years ago. While saying it is most unlikely, historians do not firmly deny the possibility of there having been only on Avatar. After all, our good sovereign monarch, wise Lord British, has himself displayed an amazing longevity! Whatever interpretation of history proves to be most accurate, it seems undeniable that the Avatar will not return to our fair kingdom. By all indications the age of magic is coming to an end.
