Up to four heroes fight through mazes full of monsters, collecting food and keys. It was one of the first four-player co-op arcade games and a huge hit.

Not so much

Play it better

  3. Save magic potions for big groups.
  4. Death drains health, and only a potion can kill it.
  5. Each class is different: Warrior is strongest, Valkyrie has best armor, Wizard has best magic and Elf is fastest.
