- This page is for the Ultima III: Exodus song, for more titles see Lord British's Castle.
As the name suggests, Lord British's Castle is the song that plays when you are inside Lord British's Castle.
Subsequent Ultima games also feature songs unofficially titled Lord British's Castle, but while the titles are the same, the music is different each time.
Games
Ultima III: Exodus (A2)
This is the original version of the song as composed by Ken Arnold. It is rendered on the AY-3-8930 chip of the Mockingboard.
Ultima III: Exodus (A8)
The Atari 8-bit port has comparable music that is used in the same place as the original Apple II release.
Ultima III: Exodus (C64)
When the game was ported to the Commodore 64, the music was arranged for the SID chip, probably by Ken Arnold, but it may have been done by the game's porter, Chuck Bueche. The music functions in the same manner as the Apple II release, but has a "buzzy" sound compared to the original.
The song is track 3 in the SID file and plays on the 6581.
Ultima III: Exodus (PC98)
The PC-98 port renders the song on the YM2608.
Ultima III: Exodus (PC88)
Like the PC-98 port, the PC-88 renders the song on the YM2608, but at a lower quality.
Ultima III: Exodus (AMI)
The Amiga port features similar music and used in the same places as the original game.
Ultima III: Exodus (AST)
The Atari ST port features similar music and used in the same places as the original game.
Ultima III: Exodus (GBC)
A bootleg Game Boy Color part was made which includes this song rendered on the APU of the Game Boy's DMG-CPU B.
