The Gauntlet

The Gauntlet supports 1 player according to the catalogue. This is the publisher’s listed player count, so the game is designed for exactly that number of participants. Variants for other group sizes, if any, are described in the rulebook of your edition, so check it before setting up a different configuration.

The Gauntlet belongs to these categories: Racing and Expansion for Base-game. Its main mechanics are Hexagon Grid. Categories describe the theme and setting of a game, while mechanics describe what players actually do on their turns. Each mechanic links to a catalogue hub with similar games, which helps when you want something comparable.

The credited designers of The Gauntlet are: Aaron Allston. These credits come from the published game data and name the people responsible for the game’s design, not its illustrators or publishers. Designer pages on MeepleRules collect other titles by the same designers, which helps when you enjoy a game and want to find similar ones.

The catalogue lists The Gauntlet as an expansion for Battlecars. Expansions add new content, rules or scenarios to the base game and usually cannot be played on their own, so you need Battlecars to use it. Check that your edition of Battlecars is compatible, as some expansions were revised between editions.
