DESCRIPTION

Ported from the 1985 arcade game, Xbox Live Arcade's Gauntlet is an overhead-view action title starring four fantasy archetypes. Characters include a warrior, elf, wizard, and valkyrie, who each possess distinct weapons and attributes. Battle waves of ghosts, grunts, sorcerers, and other spawned monsters across more than 100 mazelike levels. Collect food to replenish health, treasure for bonus points, keys to unlock doors, and potions for magic. Digitized speech will notify you when your character is low on health. Quickly find food or add additional credits to continue adventuring. Gauntlet includes four-player online support and leaderboards for various in-game milestones. ~ Scott Alan Marriott, All Game Guide
