In Gauntlet, four brave souls (or just you with an overworked space bar) hack, slash, and gobble food like medieval Pac-Men. This 1986 dungeon crawler is basically a family reunion gone wrong: everyone wants treasure, no one shares health potions, and someone inevitably shouts, “Wizard needs food, badly!” at least once every five minutes. It’s chaotic, endless, and oddly addictive—kind of like being trapped in a fantasy IKEA where skeletons and ghosts keep spawning from wardrobes. Simple? Yes. Fun? Absolutely, if you don’t mind dying because your buddy shot the food again.
