Play Gauntlet II Amiga Online

Gauntlet II came out on the Amiga in 1986, published by U.S. Gold. It was one of those games that really showed off what the system could do with multiplayer, especially if you had friends and enough joysticks. In an era where many games were still single player affairs, this one invited chaos right into your living room.

You pick from one of four characters, like the Warrior or the Valkyrie, and venture through maze-like dungeons one screen at a time. Your goal is simple: survive, collect treasure, and find the exit. You fight constant waves of ghosts, grunts, and demons with your chosen weapon, all while carefully managing a health bar that ticks down relentlessly. The real tension comes from sharing limited food and keys with your allies, or watching someone frantically hunt for a potion before their life drains away. It feels frantic, cooperative, and utterly absorbing when you’re deep in a dungeon with monsters spawning everywhere.
