Long ago, I called Tengen's hotline and had a nice conversation with one of their game councilors (it was the time when companies often ran help lines for their games). I mentioned the Room 79 title screen exit, and the person on the line, who had been told this by the game's designer, said it was "another of Morak's tricks." Ah, the days when games could do that kind of thing.
I played Gauntlet Legends so much as a child, it was one of my favourite game
Got to watch Yelsraek and Chessjerk working out the strats on Yels' stream several times. Been a big fan of his for a couple of years and so happy they got to show off their hard work here.
I never played the original Gauntlet, but I played Gauntlet Legends for the N64. One of my favorite games!
Gauntlet games were so good and are now a lost treasure
My uncle had the arcade machine back in the day use to play it all the time
I remember playing gauntlet legends with my brother and mom growing up
Love Gauntlet 4 and its soundtrack.
Idk what You mean by 'lost treasure' -- Gauntlet is never out of print; the various ports, reboots, spiritual sequels, and imitators are always preserved in various places on the internet.
"my wife daddy laser blaster"...literally spat my drink out. You three are amazing. Thanks for an amazing run!
The bad exit showcase is amazing
It's crazy how different gauntlet legends and dark legacy are from this, but with the music I immediately knew It's the same series
Happy birtday, yels!
Such a good natured group! The runners at GDQ are the best! So inclusive as well! Love you guys!
Gauntlet had an ending? I thought it was just a quarter muncher
The console versions did. Arcade versions? Nope.
The arcade game does not have an ending. Though there are so many levels, you'd have to play a LONG time before they repeat.
I suppose both are true
Great run and great vibes!
It's Yels' birthday? Oh no, not again...
You made it loom so easy! Great run.
Possibly the nicest most entertaining runners have seen. Love the commentary and gameplay.
I never knew this had an end! This speedrun and showcase may explain why some levels seemed to repeat for me.
I remember playing this for the commodore 64 as a kid. Not surprised I never beat it. Great run!
Nostalgia noises
this is why I loooooooove GDQ!
will always love these ol NES runs
7:18 - The room I was never able to get past. I always ended up stuck in a loop in this world.
Really cool video
SICK!I beat it with elf and wizard pre 1990. Amazing what y’all did
Played this game once on arcade and never again haha. Brings me back.
Really sadistic game design but I remember my uncle had this game. I never got passed room 34.
They made a cruel game looks so easy. What an amazing run!
I've never seen a 2P clear of this game, so this is gonna be rad
I just realized the music here was on that one Mad Hatter album about the nintendo game master lol. Sick.
what sweet bois
gauntlet is tight
... those bad exits are downright evil.
Same pass I use at my vault...
Nice
13:38 Why shoot the extra fight power (I think that's what that is) potion instead of taking it?
We shoot the extra fight power potion for two reasons: 1. we need a bomb to clear the room and shooting a power up acts as a bomb 2. we already collected extra fight power in room 22, and as far as I know, extra powers beyond the first do not further improve stats
You're correct that's a fight potion! Shooting any power-up potion causes the same effect as using a bomb, so it's a good way to clear enemies without using a bomb (at the expense of not getting that upgrade). Fight power is not very important to this run, because the game is unbalanced and even a weak fight stat can let you run through most enemies with ease. So, in this case we prefer to save on resources instead!
green elf needs food badly !
Yels is a fun streamer, great guy, but he really needs to finish Doors of Stone. Fantastic run, sir.
How does the game's vault combination work such that it accepted whatever the audience voted on? I'm surprised this wasn't explained in the otherwise very dense & comprehensive commentary.
Sorry we missed this! This trick was discovered just 1-2 weeks before GDQ. In 1-player mode, it is required to enter the correct password, or it's game over. But in 2-player mode, only one out of the two players needs the correct password - the other player can leave it blank, or enter whatever they want, with no repercussions! Thanks for watching and the kind words!
Did I miss something? How did the meme vault codes work?

Hot take: saying "nice" when you see the number 69 isn't funny.
come at me.
