The crowd is on its feet. Your opponent circles. One honest number decides the blow.
Gladius is a turn-based duel game of short, sharp decisions. Two gladiators face off on a lane of sand. Each turn you step in, fall back, or strike, and you aim for the head, the body or the legs. Before you commit, you always see your true chance to hit. There are no hidden bonuses and no fudged dice, for you or for the enemy.
EIGHT GLADIATORS, EIGHT WAYS TO WIN
• Murmillo with sword and scutum: close in and cut.
• Hoplite with a long spear: hold the line at reach.
• Archer: keep your distance and pick your shots.
• Slinger: whirl, release, repeat.
• Net fighter: tangle your foe, then strike with the trident.
• Fire sage: set enemies alight and let them burn.
• Wind caller: blast foes back and knock them down.
• Warlock: charge a devastating arcane bolt, if you dare stand still.
EVERY TURN IS A CHOICE
Head shots hit hard but miss often. Leg shots can slow a runner. Range matters: a bow is deadly at distance and clumsy up close, a sword is the opposite. Burn, root, slow and knockdown change the fight one turn at a time.
HOW LONG CAN YOU LAST?
Win a fight and earn trophies. Your wounds carry over into the next bout, so spend trophies to heal or keep them and push on. Every opponent hits a little harder than the last. Ten wins is a legend; most runs end long before.
