ARENA GODS®

Game is dead. It's got heaps of potential, but still rough, unfinished and lacking content. No updates in forever!

ARENA GODS: ~~~~~~~~~~~ One of the most deadly games ever invented by humans was officially recorded in 264 BC. And yes, you guessed it . . . it’s the Gladiator Games. The interesting point is some of them actually volunteer to become swordsmen in order to rise to fame and improve their social standing within the state of Rome. But most of the so-called Gladiators were prisoners of war, thieves and slaves. They were trained under harsh conditions in secluded Gladiator schools until they were ready to walk into the Arena for the first, and for a large number of them, the last time. Now, are you going to be our next champion and crowd favourite, and even become a god of the Roman people? That is, if you can survive long enough in Arena Gods! ARENA GODS is a top down local multiplayer game where you take control of one of four colourful gladiators and aim to be the last man alive in the arena. At the time I write this review, this game is currently under development and listed as an Early Access Game. Right now, you can play against three of your friends, or against bots. Your goal is to become the last man standing for three rounds to win the contest. As you face three other opponents there is the possibility for you to play up to nine rounds (assuming that each gladiator won two rounds each) before winning the contest. The game play is pretty simple; competitive, brutal and so much fun! Within the arena, you have four large tiles with circles on them, and several smaller tiles with hexagon motifs on them, scatted around the arena. The gladiators will enter the Lion den via the large tiles at the same time, with bare hands and a helmet. During the fights, about every fifteen seconds or so, one of the hexagon symbols on one of the smaller tiles will glow white and a chest will appear. Hover your character over the chest to discover which weapon it holds. You will have to grab the weapon first by using one of the buttons on your gamepad or keyboard to acquire it. You’ll be able to swing or even throw it to your opponent for the kill. However, you haven’t managed to pick up a weapon, your fist will be doing the talking. Try to get your adversaries on the ground face down, jump on him and his day will be over soon. If you character is the one who is kissing the ground, you might be able to avoid your enemy before he is on top of you and beating you to a pulp! The game looks ok in regards to the graphics, and the controls are pretty good too. So far, I am enjoying the game. The content is fairly small right now as you have just a few arenas to play in and no character customizations. The good news is that the developers are working on more content in regards to the arena and might even consider an online mode, too. Positives: ~~~~~~~ - Nice graphics - Fun, Fast gameplay - One achievement Negatives: ~~~~~~~~ - Needs more content - A few bugs here and there - No trading cards Arena gods is one of the local multiplayer games to keep an eye on. It’s fun so far! 6/10 Key provided by developer/publisher for review purposes. Any opinions expressed are entirely my own!

No updates in months, the controllers cannot configure properly which makes it unplayable, and again...no updates or even a response in months, maybe even over a year at this point. Save your money from this scam.

Fun but abandoned project by the devs. You're forced to use Keyboard only on player 1 and there are no settings whatsoever.

This game is buggy but super fun, been playing since pre-alpha! Lacks a lot of important features like selecting the selecting helmets/colors/maps but that's to be expected I guess for an early access title on the first day of release. Despite all of its missing features it is still an extremely fun and addicting game to play with some friends. I am excited to see what the developers have in store!

Don't get me wrong, this game is definitely fun. But in current state it's not worth the money - needs way more diversity, otherwise it gets boring after few hours. I know it's in early access stage but there haven't been any significant updates (only minor bugfixes) since few months so I started to worry if devs are still interested in full release. I will change my review if they prove they are able to deliever what was promised.

I only say "not recommended" because it is unfinished, and from all clues will not be finished. When I bought it I still had hope it would see continued development. But what's there, while a little broken, is fun. If you can tolerate the annoyances of quite evident bugs, and aren't put off by supporting a product that has been abandoned, you are likely to enjoy this game with friends. I won't question your ethics of that decision here. But you should. Supply and demand and all that.

一款俯视角的竞技场对战游戏 不过实际游戏体验极差，必须要本地多人合作 没有AI、没有在线匹配（不过即使有我觉得也不一定真有人玩） 只有手柄按键提示、好像无法用键盘游戏 总体来说对大多数人来说这游戏就是一个完全不能游玩的存在

Game is a lot of fun but there is ages old bugs that make the game unplayable sometimes. Wish the game had more content as well.

Everyone should buy this game, it is absolutely worth every penny. Best couch co-op you can get.
