The second and last game in the Worlds of Ultima series saw the hero going off to Mars at the turn of the century. An intriguing combination that made for a very interesting game similar to Space: 1889. Chat with characters of 19th century history like Freud, Tesla, and Mark Twain, and try to solve the problems of the ancient civilization that left its mark on Mars as your spacecraft crash lands after taking off from the 1893 World's Exhibition in Chicago.

Trivia

Continuing the amusing habit from the first Worlds of Ultima episode, Savage Empire, Martian Dreams again contains several real-life persons and original Ultima characters. Faithful fans may recognize Origin designer Warren Spector as well as Ultima heroes Dupre, Shamino and Iolo (in slight disguise). Further cameos: the Shadowlords and Smith the Talking Horse. See screenshot section for graphic proof.

The game includes a plethora of real Victorian-era characters.
