The minions of the underworld have been set free, and it is up to the heroes of the four realms to save the world. Take the role of a warrior, valkyrie, wizard, or archer and battle through levels of hack-and-slash action while trying to find the rune stones that will trap the minions of the underworld. Use power-ups like Thor's Hammer, haloes, and fire breath to gain advantages over the opposition. The classic Gauntlet gameplay returns with Gauntlet Legends.
