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

Description#

Your goal is to acquire Montezuma’s treasure by making your way through a maze of chambers within the emperor’s fortress. You must avoid deadly creatures while collecting valuables and tools which can help you escape with the treasure.

Actions#

MontezumaRevenge has the action space Discrete(18) with the table below lists the meaning of each action’s meanings. As MontezumaRevenge 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 environment have two possible observation types, the observation space is listed below. See variants section for the type of observation used by each environment id.

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

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

Additionally, obs_type="grayscale" cause the environment return a grayscale version of the rgb array for observations with the observation space being Box(0, 255, (210, 160), np.uint8)

Variants#

MontezumaRevenge 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
