But just because a game is relatively simple does not mean it can't be great!Įssentially, Gauntlet Legends and Dark Legacy (and Gauntlet IV) are simple action-RPGs. These games seem to be love-or-hate games with not too much ground in between I have always loved them, but critics, like GameSpot's reviewers for instance, trashed them all. These two games are my favorites ever of their type I've beaten Legends twice (on N64) and Dark Legacy once (on Gamecube), and have played it a lot more than that, in arcades (Legends only) as well as consoles, and I think that they're fantastic. Gauntlet: Legends, by Midway, was a great, great game, and it's surprising that the Gauntlet series hasn't really had a good thread here before, I believe. But now on to the main topic, Gauntlet Legends and Dark Legacy. But still, it is saving, so it should be mentioned. No bosses, the areas aren't themed, just broken up into worlds, no hub area, shops, experience system or levelling up, no game time clock (that is saved), etc.

Note - NES Gauntlet I also has saving and an ending, but because the game doesn't have most any of the features listed above, the password only saves equipment and the game level you are at (there are no character levels), and only at five or six points in the game. It also, sadly, has its saving done by 30-plus-character passwords. It's a very good game that I would say was a transitional title between the classic style of Gauntlets I and II and the style of Legends and Dark Legacy. oh well, too late now)Īs an aside before I begin, in fact the first Gauntlet game with some of the hallmarks of Gauntlet Legends - saving your character, character levels, a quest with an ending, themed areas to play through with bosses at the end of each area, a home base area with a shop in it and access to the five worlds (which you can do the first four of in any order) - actually debuted in Gauntlet IV for the Genesis. (Bah, didn't mean to submit this yet, it's not quite done.
