Gauntlet Dark Legacy

"Looking for a great party game?"

Single/Multiplayer Gameplay- 9/10

Well folks, Gauntlet Dark Legacy is a great RPG for single players, but that's not all about the game. This game is great for multiplayer gameplay. Single player is fun. There's no one there taking the items that you get from a chest, ground, or barrel. It is also more of a challenge. Multiplayer on the other hand is also fun. It is a great party game, and it's also competition against the other player to get more kills to level up faster. Also it is fun racing your friend, and trying to get all of the items. And when you do get the items more than your friend, the summoner will say, ''You are greedy'' or something like that. So I recommend, if you are having a party, or you just want to spend your time at a game leveling up and unlocking new things, Gauntlet Dark Legacy is the game to get.

Graphics - 7/10

Personally, I loved the graphics. The 3D action is great, though there are a few times when the ground gets messed up with your feet. Some people may say the graphics suck, but when it comes down to how the characters look, their physical characterizations. Their attacks, though, have a little light traveling behind it. Although it is meant to be, I don't think that it really suits the attack. The monsters and all of items have great graphics, and the little scenes when you enter a level have great graphics, better than the actual gameplay.

Sound/Music - 7/10

Okay. That's about all I can say. The music, is well, not the best, but still is good in some situations. And the sound effects are a little too much. Sometimes when you are walking and you are listening to hear stuff, and then you hear a loud noise which is annoying and usually it is a monster, or grinding from wheels. They sound is ok. It could be better. The voices in the game are good, and sometimes funny. And the sound when you attack monsters, and they die, the sound like their bodies explode, that is what makes you want to kill more. The sound may get suspenseful sometimes during a time when you are about to go to a place with lots of monsters. Sometimes you can't even hear music. But sometimes you don't want music when your to busy fighting.

Characters/Monsters - 8/10

The characters are made great! And there couldn't be any better classes than the ones in the game. You start out with the option of 8 classes. And with an additional 8 classes to unlock, it makes it that if you are bored with the characters that you begin with, you can just unlock more for more hours of fun. The monsters, and bosses, in this game, are superb. The bosses are hard when you are the right level. And when the monsters crowd around you, they can be pretty tough to get away from. There are many different monsters, depending on which realm you are in.

Game - 8/10

No game is perfect. But this game if hours of fun. The time it takes to beat the game, and master your character, won't take too long. Maybe at the most 25 hours. But if you like playing games continuously, get this.
