Hey, You. Yes you the one reading this. Why are you looking at reviews for a 12 year old game? How did you get here? Every person I talk to doesn't know about gauntlet. I feel insane because I remember the original series being classics and now it seems pretty forgotten. I love this game, it's not the same thing as the old gauntlets but it's got it's own charm, and the wizard is a genuinely impressive feat of game design.

I bought this to bring another great classic game into my steam library. I've played gauntlet since the arcade days and will buy and play ever iteration that comes out because it is THAT much fun! I'll never forget alll the hours I dropped playing Gauntlet Dark Legacy on GC and I was so excited to bring the magic home! That was truly the sweet spot in making a long progression based RPG and definitely my favorite in the series. Meanwhile Gauntlet Slayer Edition is a fantastic reminder of the relic arcade system with shorter runs for busier schedules. This is all the fun of the arcade, no roll of quarters required. You can get this on sale with your friends and won't be sorry.

I like this game! Yes, its pretty old game, but still fun to play. Easy to understand the mechanics of the game. Playing with a friend with most times its just us, while running on endless mode but always made sure the party in on public so others can join us, just to carry us. 😂😂😂 My first time playing such game, still gets confused on which is which my hero is. Thinking I was already with the team yet I was stucked and being left behind. Sometimes the animation effects on the enemies are slow which causes me to die or maybe thats on me for being noob 😂😂😂 Well, ill take this opportunity to recruit players to play with us, to carry us to finish the campaign and endless mode. 🤣

I was happy to discover one of the Gauntlet titles make it to Steam. This feels a bit too MOBA-y for a Gauntlet game, but it's still fun to grab a few friends to smash some spawners.

Gauntlet is a good revitalization of a long-dead IP. I played the original arcade version on my GBA ages ago. This is definitely a nice modernized version of it! The graphics are good, the characters are extremely unique and fun to try out, the gameplay loop keeps things engaging all the way thru. There is some things I didn't like about it, namely: 1. The fact there's no tutorial whatsovever. You get dropped in the game and the best you're gonna get is a "how to play" button on the pause screen that will show a couple pictures and extremely short details on what things a character can do. 2. The "Death" levels, altho a fun idea, were more annoying than anything. He spawns way too often, then noises are annoying and it's just not an enjoyable hurdle to play with. 3. The boss fights are more a test of patience than of skill. They are also all the same. Boss is invulnerable while you fight mobs, becomes vulnerable for a short term until the boss hits it's next HP bracket, then becomes invulnerable again and you fight more adds. The first boss atleast added a sort of "puzzle" mechanic to it, but still. Out of the entire game, they were the least fun things to deal with. Overall though, I recommend it. It's pretty short. Probably around 4ish hours to complete the campaign. If you're into twin-stick gameplay, you'd definitely enjoy it.
