Gauntlet Legends on N64 is basically the ultimate couch co-op dungeon crawler—four players can team up as warriors, wizards, archers, or valkyries, smashing through waves of skeletons and grabbing loot like health potions and magic scrolls. The controls are simple (mostly just hack, slash, and dodge), but the chaos gets real when everyone’s fighting over food drops while a swarm of ghosts chases you.
It’s got that classic arcade feel where you’re constantly feeding quarters into the machine, except here you just respawn on the spot. The levels are huge for an N64 game, with secret areas and branching paths that actually make exploration worth it. Pro tip: Valkyrie’s spear throw is stupidly good against bosses.
Still holds up if you’re into mindless, button-mashing fun with friends.
