Other weapons such as hammers and bowling balls are also available to use.

The Simpsons Arcade Game I used to play a lot at a local Chuck E. Cheese growing up. I also had the now delisted Xbox 360 port. Which I deeply enjoyed playing at the time. This was during the 90s when Konami was on a roll with licensed games. This was the original Simpsons game. Somehow it still holds up amazingly well. Also among the three best Simpsons games ever made. The soundtrack as well as the sound effects truly amazing. There's a few mini games that's a bit repetitive to a degree. You can play as most of the Simpsons family. There's a good variety within the stages. I do think a newer port of this Simpsons game would sell very well. There's a lot of people that never played the original Arcade classic. This is up there with their Arcade TMNT games respectively.
Played it on the XBox 360-but it was never given backwards compatibility. May be a tough license to get as The Simpson's are now Disney IP. Good luck GoG and I hope you can bring this great game here.
Logo quando lançou apareceu no shooping que eu frequentava, a fila era enorme, nem teve como jogar, um game bem divertido, e como já saiu pra xbox360 e ps3 bem que poderia aparecer aqui pra poder comprar
Very memorable and good looking game with some occasionally creepy aesthetics(and all the more memorable for it); many people, including me, grew up playing it, in my case it was the DOS version. Playing it co-op was extremely fun. It deserves to be on GOG.
I met a kid at a birthday party playing this game! I never saw him again (or played the game) but I remember the hours of fun. I would love to try it again. plz
GauntletThe players, up to four at once in the arcade version, select among four playable fantasy-based characters; Thor the Warrior, Merlin the Wizard, Thyra the Valkyrie, or Questor the Elf. Each character has his or her own unique strength and weaknesses. For example, the Warrior is strongest in hand-to-hand combat, the Wizard has the most powerful magic, the Valkyrie has the best armour and the Elf is the fastest in movement.
Upon selecting a playable character, the gameplay is set within a series of top-down, third-person perspective mazes where the object is to find and touch the designated exit in every level. An assortment of special items can be located in each level that increase player's character's health, unlock doors, gain more points and magical potions that can destroy all of the enemies on screen.
The enemies are an assortment of fantasy-based monsters, including ghosts, grunts, demons, lobbers, sorcerers and thieves. Each enters the level through specific generators, which can be destroyed. While there are no bosses in the game, the most dangerous enemy is "Death", who can not only drain a character's health, but is difficult to destroy.
As the game progresses, higher levels of skill are needed to reach the exit, with success often depending on the willingness of the players to cooperate by sharing food and luring monsters into places where they can be engaged and slaughtered more conveniently. While contact with enemies reduces the player's health, it also slowly drains on its own, thus creating a time limit. When a character's health reaches zero, that character dies. The character can be revived in place with full health by spending a game credit (i.e. inserting a coin) within a certain short time window after it died. This allows even the least proficient players to keep playing indefinitely, if they are willing to keep inserting coins.Action Fantasy Historical

BattlezoneBattlezone is an arcade game from Atari released in November 1980. It displays a wireframe view (using vector graphics rather than raster graphics) on a horizontal black and white (with green and red sectioned color overlay) vector monitor. Due to its novel gameplay and look, this game was very popular for many years. Throughout the 1980s, Battlezone was ported to several home computer systems (usually on the Atarisoft label), including the Apple II, the Commodore 64, the Sinclair ZX Spectrum, and the Atari XEGS. The Atari ST port contains large parts of the original 6502 code which is emulated in real time. An Atari 2600 port was also released, but has colored raster graphics due to limitations and the view is behind the tank rather than inside it.Action Warfare
