../../../_images/entombed.gif

This environment is part of the Atari environments. Please read that page first for general information.

Action Space

Discrete(18)

Observation Space

Box(0, 255, (210, 160, 3), uint8)

Import

gymnasium.make("ALE/Entombed-v5")

For more Entombed variants with different observation and action spaces, see the variants section.

Description#

You and your team of archeologists must navigate a maze filled with zombies.

For a more detailed documentation, see the AtariAge page

Actions#

Entombed has the action space Discrete(18) with the table below listing the meaning of each action’s meanings. As Entombed uses the full set of actions then specifying full_action_space=True will not modify the action space of the environment if passed to gymnasium.make.

Observations#

Atari environments have three possible observation types: "rgb", "grayscale" and "ram".

  • obs_type="rgb" -> observation_space=Box(0, 255, (210, 160, 3), np.uint8)

  • obs_type="ram" -> observation_space=Box(0, 255, (128,), np.uint8)

  • obs_type="grayscale" -> Box(0, 255, (210, 160), np.uint8), a grayscale version of the “rgb” type

See variants section for the type of observation used by each environment id by default.

Variants#

Entombed has the following variants of the environment id which have the following differences in observation, the number of frame-skips and the repeat action probability.

Version History#

A thorough discussion of the intricate differences between the versions and configurations can be found in the general article on Atari environments.

  • v5: Stickiness was added back and stochastic frameskipping was removed. The environments are now in the “ALE” namespace.

  • v4: Stickiness of actions was removed

  • v0: Initial versions release
