+XU4 is a remake of the computer game Ultima IV. The goal is to make
+it easy and convenient to play this classic on modern operating
+systems.
+
+XU4 isn't a new game based on the Ultima IV story -- it is a faithful
+recreation of the old game, right up to the crappy graphics. If you
+are looking for a game with modern gameplay and graphics, this is not
+it -- yet. New features that improve the gameplay and keep with the
+spirit of the original game will be added.
+
+This package can be built with optional extras. See README-SBo.txt
+for details.
+
+Copyright notice: The file ultima4.zip is included in this package. This
+file and its contents have a proprietary license and MAY NOT be
+redistributed. You may download it from the original site, but not give
+out copies of it yourself (including binary packages built from this
+SlackBuild, since they include ultima4.zip).
+
+If you have trouble downloading ultima4.zip from the URL listed
+in the .info file, you can instead download UltimaIV.zip from
+http://www.ultimaforever.com/ (registration required, JavaScript browser
+required, no direct download URL). It's a different packaging of the
+same content; the script is smart enough to build a package from either
+release of Ultima 4.
