How it plays
How does Gauntlet Legends play?
The game uses an overhead perspective. Players explore maze-like stages, defeat monsters, collect keys and treasure, activate switches, and reach the exit before being overwhelmed.
Four character classes provide different attack ranges, speed, durability, and magic. Experience raises character level, while gold and equipment improve combat performance. The campaign progresses through several themed realms, with optional paths, secret areas, and boss battles. Cooperative multiplayer is a central mode, although the PlayStation version requires compatible multitap hardware for more than two players.
Plan your run
What is the best way to play Gauntlet Legends?
Preserve food and potions for dangerous encounters rather than spending them immediately. Use the level layout to separate groups of enemies, and prioritize generators, summoners, and ranged attackers before ordinary monsters.
Collect keys and gold carefully, explore dead ends for equipment and secret areas, and match each class to its strengths. In multiplayer, divide exploration duties while keeping weaker characters away from encirclement.

Before you begin
What should you know before playing?
- 1
Destroy enemy generators quickly; they can create more danger than the monsters already on screen.
- 2
Use character-specific magic against large groups or bosses instead of wasting it on isolated enemies.
