No, it's Light Crusader, the Treasure game. Japan and Europe went with the actual good art while America said "this isn't extreme enough" because it was the 90s.

>>8357381
Europe didn't "go with" anything. They don't have money to make their own cool cover, so they get Japan's sloppy seconds.

the early revisions were made that way if you were good. It was a mistake on their part that gauntlet proved too easy from the start, hence the numerous revisions to make the game more and more unfair and quarter--grinding.

My curiosity is, has there ever been an effort by gauntlet fanatics to determine which gauntlet revision is the best mix of difficulty and fairness?

Landstalker or Beyond Oasis is close to Zelda. Light Crusader is too unique.

Not really. Both Zelda and LC are puzzle games disguised as Action-RPGs.
