Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 1.29/day in the week to Sep 11 → 3/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 24 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 9 places towards #1, and the 2,404 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.

If you like gladiator manager style games then you will enjoy playing this game. I found the start challenging, but rewarding once you start getting your gladiators trained up. I did however find that once you start winning battles, it just becomes a little bit of a grind to level up, get money, equipment and so on... justified by the fact it's an early access game. In the future, I would like to see some better tactics - better training - better agents/upgrades. Simply ways to make the game/gladiators more customizable. Perhaps fights/matches with betting, maybe underground fights with no weapons or certain rules. Maybe a high stakes fight where it is to the death - with varying rewards. However, for what is it, I enjoyed my playtime and I think other's would if the whole gladiator management game is something they typically like.
Plays like a menu simulator, and the AI on both sides is just plain stupid, this needs years more development even for an early access. Getting a refund

Its a great game, yeah sure its not UE5 grafics etc and normally i would be bothered by that, but this game is great and most plus point: its a single developer who reacts fast to wishes and does all he can to make this game great and i am sure it will become better and better. Is it challenging? Yes. Was it challenging in the old Rome? I bet, so im fine with that part, makes winning much more appeling this way.
macht einfach spaß
Super jeu très addictif. J’y joue sur console portable et je me régale. Le développeur fait un super boulot. Bravo il mérite d’être soutenu
Love the game! I easily spent a day losing myself to it. There are lots of bugs, and AI SUUUCKS during fights!!! But its easy to play, learn, and enjoy. It's overpriced at full price, but its honestly a lot of fun and its an awesome idea showing off sports management in roman gladiator setting,
Good Sh#t. But need a lot of improvements.
Played the demo a while back and was sold immediately. The full game definitely didn't disappoint If you're into management games, this is an easy recommendation. It's one of those games where you think, I'll just do one more fight and suddenly a couple of hours are gone. Recruiting gladiators, training them, upgrading your Ludus, managing your economy, and watching your team grow is just super satisfying. The gladiator theme is awesome, and there's more depth than I expected. You actually have to think about your decisions instead of just clicking through menus. For an Early Access game, it already has a solid amount of content and feels surprisingly polished. The dev is clearly passionate about the project, and I'm excited to see what gets added next. I'm already looking forward to sinking even more hours into it once my vacation starts in a couple of weeks. Easy Recommended.
Chinese localization~~ First of all, thank you for making this game. A gladiator game grounded in a realistic setting has always been a passion of mine. I'll skip the gameplay feedback — English isn't my native language and I'm afraid I can't express myself clearly, plus other players have probably already covered that. I just want to mention one thing: at least 20% of the game still hasn't been fully localized into Chinese. It might not cause too much trouble for gameplay, but it really hurts the immersion. This includes a lot of the text, and when you change a gladiator's name to Chinese, it only shows up as "□□□" on the Hall of Fame leaderboard... I hope this can be fixed soon. Wishing the game becomes more and more polished. Love from a Chinese player~ :majinbuu:
Excellent jeu, bien fun, pas mal de fonctionnalites a debloquer, un peu de retouches sur l'interfaces ne ferait pas de mal
