10 Video Games That Let You Battle Death Itself!

For a game without traditional video game bosses, Gauntlet still manages to be a truly challenging experience. From start to finish you'll be swarmed by mobs of the undead and other mythical beings as you traverse an ever deadly dungeon.

However, in amongst all of the ghosts, sorcerers and thieves you might notice a chap clad in a dark robe with that all too familiar bony smile. Yes that's right: Death itself has taken a tour of the dungeon in order to seek out adventurers and tear pieces of their soul from them.

Popping up randomly, the Death sprite will move towards the player and latch on to them, not letting go until they have drained a significant portion of their health. It's an absolute nightmare to try and kill as well, but if the player can kite it into a workable pattern, they can fire off a bomb potion and kill it in one shot.

However, 9 times out of 10 you're going to get grabbed and there's no escaping its clutches if that happens.
