Accolades: “An idealized reboot of the series – immediately familiar yet totally fresh.” – Digital Trends “You haven’t needed food this badly since the 1980’s” – Gamespot “Just the way fans would want it” - Destructoid "Fans of the classic 80s game have nothing to worry about." - PrimaGames "This classic quarter-muncher consumed a lot of my own money during summers as a kid, so it's nice to see the fantasy gameplay live on this latest incarnation." - Fortune "With its simple, streamlined controls and the compatibility with SteamOS, 'Gauntlet' is clearly nostalgic for the living room-centric gaming of the early 90s. And it succeeds." - Tom's Guide
