Gauntlet consists of 3 trials. The goal in each trial is to reach the door on the other side of the gap. Falling during any trial into the gap teleports the player to the start of that trial. Gliding is possible and recommended.
- Trial #1
The player has to jump across 6 platforms that move left to right over the gap. It is recommended to jump on the first platform when it is on it's way towards the center then jump towards the next one using glider. Skipping a platform with gliding does not seem to be possible. Players can stand on platforms on the left and right sides of the gap.
- Trial #2
There are 3 types of platforms in a 5x5 grid over a gap: Diamonds, Squares and Circles. One of them is active and can be stood upon, the other 2 are false platforms and the player will fall through them. Which one is active rotates every ~5 seconds. A player can check which one is active by looking at the Panel above the exit from the trial, the active one will glow. About a second before switching the active shape will blink a few times. Order is Square, Diamond then Circle then it repeats itself.

- Jump from active platform to platform, normally it is possible to jump 3-4 platforms if the shape just became active. Should need be, the player can make use of platforms on the side of the gap, they can always be stood on.
- When the shape on the panel starts blinking jump and glide towards the shape that will become active next. Timing might take some practice. Make sure not to land before the shape becomes active
- The platforms are laid out in a pattern. Optimal jumps are diagonally forward. Forward right goes to a platform that matches the one the player is on (also active, until the next shape change); forward left goes to the NEXT active shape. So an effective strategy is to make the first jump onto one of the lefthand platforms as it becomes active, jump diagonally right until the timer is about to run out, then make a single jump diagonally left to the new active shape. Then start jumping diagonally right again. And so on.

- Trial #3
The 3rd trial contains 3 levels one above the other and falling into the gap from any of these levels will teleport the player to the start of the first level. Each level consists of 8 platforms spinning around 4 axis-pillars. Use of glider is highly advisable.
- It is possible to:
- jump from starting platform to the closest spinning platform.
- jump from platform to platform diagonally.
- jump to the exit platform from the closest spinning platform.
- glide from platform to platform along the level.
- glide around the pillars from one spinning platform to the other spining platform attached to the same pillar.
Once the player reaches the platform with the chest at the end of the 3rd level in the 3rd trial, the Gauntlet is complete.
