    Honorable Mention Gauntlet 2

    Thank you for listening to The Best Games of My Life. This is a podcast where I talk about what I consider to be the top 100 video games of all time. Opinions may differ, but I think these games are the best. Each episode is a different game. I'm behind on recording my top 100 games, so I have a quick honorable mention. Gauntlet II is a game where you try to navigate the endless labyrinths to see how far you can get. Best with a friend! Thank you so much to Aaron Walz for the use of the music. You can check out the song here on Bandcamp (along with the other work he has done): Gauntlet Theme (Remake) | Walz Music & Sound If you would like to get in touch, my email for the podcast if thebestgamesofmylife@gmail.com Thank you for listening!
