Gauntlet

The game features a choice of four characters to play with, each with different weapons. Thor the Warrior has a bludgeoning battle axe, Thyra the Valkyrie has a close range sword, Questor the Elf has his long range bow, and Merlin the Wizard has magical bolts.

Ghosts, goblins and even the life-draining Death are among the enemies that players must face. Enemies stream out of generators, so destroying these before tackling the rest is crucial.

Keys are needed to open the many doors within the levels, and in some situations a door will contain only bonus items, not a progressive route. Scattered magic potions can clear the screen of all enemies, but beware of poison, which reduces the character's energy level. Treasure is abundant throughout the levels and adds to the player's score.
