About this game

Participate in tournaments with your team of gladiators as you employ bribes and assassinations to weaken your enemies. Acquire gladiators from your competitors, or sell them if you lose interest. Train them with new skills and upgrade their stats to dominate the colosseum.

Gladiator Manager is a strategic management game with an auto-battler component. It operates on a turn-based system, where each turn is divided into two primary segments. The first segment focuses on actions such as leveling up your gladiators, managing your finances, building upkeep, tournament registration, gladiator acquisition, and opponent sabotage. The second segment is combat preparation and execution: picking equipment and setting up bribes.

The game progresses through various phases, starting from the initial setup (turns 1-50), moving into a more complex mid-game (turns 50-150), and offering late-game gameplay variation and additional content (after turn 150). Through an ascension system, you can do over 10 re-runs with mutators, and there are 3 difficulty settings to complete your games on.

To organise your gladiators effectively, you handle their injuries, and maintain their loyalty. Level up their attributes, select techniques, and choose fighting styles to optimise their performance in battle.

Overall, Gladiator Manager offers a management experience set against a historical backdrop, highlighting the importance of strategic decision-making and effective resource management to rise as the most dominant lanista in Rome.

Ratings and reviews

Absolutely what I was looking for with a phone game. I really don't have any complaints. It's a table top gladiator sim with a great visual aid. Sweet, simple, to the point yet deceitfully in depth. Having a knowledge of what gladiator classes were strong or weak to others has a big impact on the outcome. I'm on my first run, week 90-100. Only lost a handful of battles. Champion is a unit. Gold cache is loaded. I hope to see a feature in the future for us to battle our friends.

I have been enjoy the game play. It's quick rounds and a lot of customization on the gladiators skills. But I am about to stop playing because I keep leveling up my guys just for them to be killed in masses over and over by raids. You can go from 10 workers to 0 in one round. It feels pointless to put in work into something when you have to keep starting over

Has two major bugs/poor design which are as soon as you hit the advance button, you cannot go back and have to fight. The other bug is when you buy or upgrade your estate, it doesn't update how it looks when you're playing and you have to quit to title and go back to the game for it to update your estate. Other than those two things it's a super fun game.
