o jogo tem alguns anos o desenvolvimento é lento ainda com bugs, como por exemplo o auto combate muitas vezes fica sempre activo mesmo tu desactivando ele continua activo na mesma, o jogo inicia sem som e nao volta a dar som mais só reinstalando 2 anos k tenho o jogo e muitos bugs ainda k o torna injogavel
This game is full of little bugs and glitches but it's extremely addicting. The lack of any info/game guides online maybe adds to the fun. It's the mystery of discovering a character build that does what you want. Couple that with the different team compositions and there's tons of tactics and strategies to progress. My latest favorite is 2h wep Gladiator/Rogue/Ronin/Duelist. 2h Wep tree and Gladiator and Ronin do well for AOE. The Rogue tree has a skill that grants a chance to do bonus damage to targets that aren't attacking you. This is just one approach. Which one is your fav? Give this game a try

For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 23 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 14 places towards #1, and the 2,420 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

养成类,还挺好玩的
傻逼游戏,一鱼两吃。又跑回来骗钱了/。
I really loved playing Gladius on Xbox back in the day. Since then, no gladiator game has really scratched that itch until Blackthorn Arena! The sheer control you have over your team. One keeps getting to be a problem? Sell them off! Watch as your gladiators grow and become true badasses of the ring under your guidance. Most of the clipping issues have been taken care of and this game has truly evolved from when it was first in early release. I'm up to 68 hours (nothing compared to some of my true faves in my library) and am rapidly putting more and more hours into this. It is truly enjoyable for the money!
剧情和可玩内容太少了,也就角色build费点点时间,创意工坊也不开,明明游戏还有很大开发潜力白白浪费。而且23年貌似网络对战也关了,辛苦打造的人物也只能欺负弱智AI,毫无乐趣, 工作室也去开发新游戏了,挺失望的
1 étoile sur 5... Si vous avez un problème de son et les options qui sont tout ♥♥♥♥♥, faut mettre votre Windows en Langue d'affichage English (US). À l'intérieur du jeu, tu peux mettre la langue que tu veux... En français, l'affichage est vraiment dégeulasse... des moitiés de mots partout. Ça règle presque tous les problèmes de son... Le son des voix parcontre lui ne fonctionne pas plus. Le jeu est truffé de bug divers... Quand tu sélectionnes de tuer les gladiateurs ennemis dans une arène, les champions tire une flèche en plein milieu de la foule et le gars en face de lui crève... il y a tellement de bug que ça enlève tout le plaisir d'y jouer... et pourtant ça serait un excellent jeu... Au moins si j'avais des voix, je mettrais 1 étoiles de plus, si je pouvais mettre mon windows en français sans que tout le son et option plante (très mal codé là...) 1 autre de plus. Si je pouvais sélectionner un des esclaves sans tous les bugs visuels une autre étoile de plus, on serait à 4 étoiles et ça serait quand même jouable. Même le tutoriel est bourré de bug visuel...(et on aurait une 5ème étoile) Faut le faire, la moitié des affichages est décalé ou inexistant. Jeu qui mériterait d'être encore en Beta, c'est majoritairement des bugs qui date de plusieurs années qui n'ont jamais été réglé...
Vale o din. Pra quem gosta de gerenciamento.
