Import

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

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

Description

You must survive 26 levels of enemies and curses and collect as much treasure as you can along the way.

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

Darkchambers 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.
