What's the Gauntlet? Are you referring to the nasty series of themed tunnels (one with huge jaws, one with tons of uber-nautiluses, one with creepy smiling tentacles, etc.) you had to go through to rescue the four spirits? "shudders"

It was an ordeal to go through (not so much hard as exhausting. I liked the end part of the jaw gauntlet though: where if you stopped, you were chomped

BTW: the Golem has to be the only boss for which it is impossible to escape unscathed
(at least for me) : the first time I tried him, he charged me horizontally and I thought that was the pattern. The time when he first jumped was a major WTF moment for me. You should have seen my face, frantically hitting the escape key with the Golem an inch away! I panicked and force-fed Naija three special cakes, two spicy rolls, and an arcane poultice
