Official description

The mindblowing sequel to the number 1 smash hit. Addictive, frantic and packed with so many new features it's a totally new game. Over 100 levels of pulsating action as you take on the powers of your favourite player, even if they're already in play. Watch out for the death curse of the evil "IT" and flee from the thieving grasp of the "THAT" creature. Stun Tiles. Acid Puddles. Force Fields, Super Sorcerers, Phoney and Moving Exits make your progress all the more difficult. But there are mystical amulets to be collected which will enhance your powers to repel monsters, transport through walls or increase your fire power. Avoid poisoned food and potions, collecting them makes you dizzy!. Gauntlet II is not just a further episode in this enthralling crusade, it is a whole new experience in action packed adventure.
