By the way, here's a scan of a sealed copy of "Dandy" that I just unpacked for the Atari 8-bit line of computers. This is what "Gauntlet" was "copied" from, which made "Dandy" author, John Palevich, quite angry. He later created an improved clone of his own, called "Dark Chambers" (though down from a 4 player game to a 2), which appeared on the Atari 7800 and 2600. All of this drama of course revolved around Atari and its various divisions... "Dandy" was pretty good, but "Gauntlet" was certainly better, copy or no. "Dark Chambers" certainly didn't improve on "Gauntlet" either.
