More Atari retro news

Mobile game publisher Digital Bridges has just announced that it is launching a Java conversion of classic Atari dungeon shooter, Gauntlet. Developed by TKO Software, this mobile version features over 20 levels, many of which are identical to favourites from the 1985 coin-op.

Sadly, although you can pick from the same four characters - Warrior, Wizard, Valkyrie and Elf - there's no four-player co-op mode, which some would say was the whole point of the arcade original. Still, you can re-live those halycon days of being chased through a level by hundreds of tiny ghosts while trying to pick up health bonuses en route.
