Gauntlet, originally released in arcades in 1985 by Atari Games, is a fantasy-themed, action role-playing game. Gameplay involves up to four players controlling distinct warrior characters, each with unique attributes, as they traverse a dungeon filled with monsters and traps. Players must strategically use their individual abilities, weapons, and magic spells to survive waves of enemies and reach the end of each level. The game's success is largely attributed to its cooperative gameplay and addictive, dungeon-crawling nature, setting the stage for many similar titles that followed. Multiple revisions were released over the years to refine the game mechanics and address gameplay issues, which led to the many versions reflected in this list, some of which reflect localization for different markets. This classic arcade game made a significant impact on the gaming industry, showcasing the potential of cooperative multiplayer experiences within the action RPG genre.
