Gauntlet (NES)/World 3



The cave-like rooms of the caverns are haunted by many of the horrendous fiends from the Unseen. You may find a room in world three with treasure and bombs that you cannot get.

Level 42


Take the right exit to reach room 43, which is necessary to reach room 46, the Clue Room. The left exit will bypass rooms 43 and 44, leading to room 45.

If you go to the right then the locked treasure chest contains a sword potion.

Level 46


Clue Room. Shoot out the tail of the arrow to acquire the clue before touching the flashing panel and exiting.

Level 48
All exits lead to room 49.

Level 51


The exit to the right skips room 52 and leads to room 53.

Many of the potions reduce health.

Level 52
The exit to this room leads to room 55, which skips room 53 and the Clue Room, room 54.

Level 54


Black potions reduce health. You need 1 spare key to get the clue from the locked chest. If you have no keys on entry, you must get the two from the upper right chamber before opening the chest.

Level 57


Be sure to collect the Key in this room if you don't have any. If you do not have at least one key saved when you reach the next treasure room, you CANNOT beat the first clue room in the next world!

Level 58


Provided you have a key when you enter this room, you can open the locked chests if you wish. Again, be sure to hold back at least one key, or you will regret it.

Level 60


Do not open any locked chests unless you have at least one spare key beyond the one needed in world 4. Again, if you don't have one entering this room, you will get stuck. You may get sent to room 59.
