I do. Would play this at the arcades in the seaside town I grew up in although I think it was "Blue valkyrie is about to die" I hope they have the option to have the 80's voice over

IIRC
Gauntlet 1 was "<class> is about to die."
Gauntlet 2 was "<colour><class> is about to die."

Where the colour (or color) was determined by which joystick you were responsible for....

I got one on mega drive. I think it was part 4, where you had to slay dragons.

My C64 gets a 'test' every few months, dusted off and just sit there watching the 45min loading time on Predator, die turn over and reload:)

just amazed they revamp a game then try to charge $20 for it. I liked it back in the day, but now days i would rather spend money on a better game, with a newer concept to be honest.

Good Luck in your slaying

Every game is a revamp in one way or another...Wolfenstein?
Not only is that a new interpretation of it but it borrows heavily from games/films that were ridiculed less than a cple of years ago for the very same 'nazis on the moon' concept, Iron Sky.

For the price it is now and only released in Sept by then I wont even remember spending it.

I spent so many quarters on Gauntlet 1 in the mid 80's it's not even funny. the game just seemed to keep going and going , not even sure the original had an end to it. it felt like it kept random generating dungeons. till we ran out of quarters lol

at least it seemed that way lol

Luckily for the Dwarf, the elf is about to die.
