Gauntlet was one of the first video games to allow for more than 2 players to play at a time. And as a young kid in a big arcade with friends, that was awesome. You and three of your buddies all jacked up on candy and soda pounding this big arcade machine at the same time. You'd likely remember the arcade since it was so unique at the time...
Pretty simple game, all characters were in the same side scrolling scene. Fighting ghosts and monsters. Each character had different fighting advantages. When you could get all 4 characters playing at the same time, it was some epic coop fun.
