Gauntlet Dark Legacy

Gauntlet Dark Legacy is the sequel to Gauntlet Legends and another installment in the long-running Gauntlet series of hack-and-slash action games. As with all Gauntlet games, you play a medieval fantasy character who, along with allies if you have any, fights his way through hordes of evil creatures in the never-ending quest for more gold and maybe even a goal. This version includes the characters and levels from Gauntlet Legends, as well as the new characters and levels from the Dark Legacy arcade game and a few additional levels. To start with, there are eight characters to choose from: the mighty warrior, the deadly Valkyrie, the swift-footed archer, the powerful wizard, the spell-casting sorceress, the steadfast knight, the brave dwarf and the chaotic jester. Although there are similarities between the characters of the two games, each character looks and plays differently. Also, there are eight alternate modes to unlock for these characters and dozens of secret characters to obtain. Multi-tap allows up to four players to play, with rules determining how much they can hurt each other. Unlike Gauntlets, the levels take place in varied terrain, from forests to mountains to volcanic plains. Many of the monsters are familiar to old fans of the series, but there is also new blood in the ranks of evil, including some pretty big enemies.
