Not the worst Gauntlet game.
Fun range of characters to pick from (not just Wizard or Archer!). This one plays in vertical mode so you'd be playing with the Lynx upright. Perhaps a little tricky if trying on anything other than the original platform (unless you want neck ache!)

And, lo, the Gods cried for a hero and the Nerd arrived with his pencils to rid the soured land of evil...

Who came up with the characters for this game?!
