The Gauntlet is a top-down, maze-like shooter where players control a character (Thor, a warrior, or two other characters, depending on the version) as they navigate through a series of increasingly difficult mazes. The goal is simple: eat all the food pellets while avoiding ghosts and other obstacles. The twist? The game features a unique magic symbol system, which players can use to temporarily protect themselves from enemies.
