US Gold/Master System/£29.99

Gauntlet as a one player game doesn't stand up to much nowadays, but with the two player option it really comes into its own, bringing in more of a strategy element. The Sega version is faithful to the original and very playable, but as the ability to shoot accurate diagonal shots is immense, the Master System's joy pad often proves a little unhelpful. Gauntlet's top notch gameplay makes it worth persevering without being put off by the rather unexciting graphics.
