Trivia

Gauntlet II featured digitized sounds through the pc internal speaker. Some packages also included a Tandy SL / TL upgrade which took advantage of the digital sound capabilities of these computers (The SL / TL disk was also available from mindscape if the package didn't include it. As far as I know inclusion of the enhanced sound disk was random)
