     A friend just bought a copy of Garrison (sp?) for me from somewhere 
in silicon valley. It is almost exactly the same game as Gauntlet which
is an arcade game.  
     The sound and music are excellent. (stereo, possibly digitized) The
play action is smooth and FAST.  There is alot of action, monsters are
everywhere. They throw things, chase you, appear and dissappear, and just
generally make havoc. The programmers at Rainbow Gmbh DID GOOD! Thanks!  
     Rainbow Gmbh(sp?) is a German company which does not seem to be 
distributing widely in the States.  I heard a rumor that a company here
in the States is producing a game called Gauntlet and is attempting to 
ban the sale of Garrison. According to the rumor the Amiga game called
Gauntlet is authorized by the makers of the arcade version.  
     Does anyone know if there is any truth to these rumors?  If Gauntlet
was more like the original Gauntlet Arcade version, I would buy it TOO!
(And enjoy both!)
