Windows 95/98Action

Get Medieval is Monolith's frantic four-player dungeon romp, directly inspired by the arcade classic Gauntlet. Choose from a goofy barbarian, a cocky elf, and two fierce warrior women, then battle your way through 40 monster-filled levels packed with power-ups, treasure, and a lot of wisecracks. Up to four players can team up on one PC, over a network, or online, and the included random dungeon creator keeps things fresh.
