Mean Machines
Gauntlet has appeared on virtually every home computer system on Earth, and I'm glad to see that the Sega version tops the lot for sheer playability. The game is played at a tremendous speed, and each dungeon is packed with literally hundreds of vile and gruesome creatures all out to get you - as you can imagine, it's action all the way! As well as being very playable, the graphics and sound are also excellent. The sprites are small, but they're superbly detailed, and the backdrops are very polished, giving the game a true arcade look. With 100 different levels the challenge you, Gauntlet won't lost its appeal in a hurry. If you've got a Sega, do yourself a favour and plug this into it.

Power Play
Technisch macht die Gauntlet-Version auf dem Master System gar keine schlechte Figur. Prächtige Farben, hübsche Sprites und eine gelungene Adaption des Original-Automatensounds sprechen eigentlich für Gauntlet. Leider ist das Programm spielerisch auf dem Stand vor vier Jahren stehengeblieben. Während andere Gauntlet-Fassungen mit neuen Spielelementen aufwarten (z.B. die amerikanische NES-Fassung) wurde dies leider beim Master System versäumt. Die Folge: Schon nach kurzer Zeit stellen sich die ersten Ermüdungserscheinungen ein, und das Modul verschwindet im Regal.
