  • Awesome Music:
    • The Sega Genesis installment Gauntlet IV has a soundtrack scored by Hitoshi Sakimoto. His involvement with the game also happens to be a very late moment of Fan Rejoicing with people discovering the game through emulation.
    • The Desecrated Temple, especially the N64 version.
    • Also from Gauntlet Legends, the Castle Courtyard.
  • Critical Dissonance: Oddly, the NES version of this game does not appear on IGM's list of Top 100 NES Games at all.
  • Furry Fandom: The unlockable characters were anthromorphic animal mostly (a Unicorn for the Knight, a tigress for the Archer, and a hyena for the Jester for example).
  • Memetic Mutation: "Wizard Needs Food Badly".
  • Unfortunate Implications: An ad that boasted about the multiplayer feature. It showed the four characters, and the tagline reads something along the lines of "Play with three friends. Thing is, one of you will have to be the girl." Think about that for a moment.
    • That ad even had one of the players telling his unfortunate friend, "Nice rack, dude".
