About this game

Gauntlet II was released by Atari Games in 1986.

Description
This game is almost the same as the original Gauntlet except it contains over 100 new mazes with new enemies and other variations. Also, each player can select whichever character he or she wants to play. Meaning, that each player can even all be the same character, regardlessly. The players on the game are differed by color (red, yellow, blue and green) instead of character and the characters each player can select to play are respectively the Warrior, the Valkyrie, the Elf and the Wizard.
Trivia
This game incorporates a "secret room" similar to the treasure room (only one player may enter it). The player is given a task to complete before time expires (e.g. exit the maze, collect all the super potions, et. al.). If the task is accomplished, the player is given a 6-digit code, which, at the time, could be mailed to Atari as a part of a promotion. The first 500 entries won Gauntlet II T-shirts plus a chance of winning a $5000 savings bond. The machine provides clues on how to enter the secret rooms whenever a hidden wall is shot away on any level (e.g "to enter secret room, do not use invunerability," "IT would be nice," et. al.).
