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

It's possibly the best game I've played in a long time, top 3 of all time for sure for me. Beautifully designed and fun combat and weapons system, and training your gladiators to match your vision for them feels like an rpg. Personally, I would like to see the side quests and more being expanded upon, and while fruitful and fun it feels almost incomplete.

It's a really good game. I love how detailed it is, abd the game play is very engaging, but it has some bugs. I keep getting a notification to increase my security. If I do it anymore, I'll literally be more secure than Fort Knox. Also, I have a text bubble from one of the dominus' , Magnus, on my screen, but when I tap it, there's no dialogue.

Love this game! Have spent countless hours on it. That being said, there are a few things that would make it perfect: - Being able to choose which Gladiator you ascend with. - Reduced influence costs. It gets unmanageable after the first skill tree. - A spec class for bowmen. - Repeating Tournaments. After the first year, the only ones available are the annum tournaments, which makes it impossible to complete the Lunar achievement. Other than that, this game is phenomenal. Great job!

What's new

Intrigue overhauled! Now intrigue actions will have a cool new animation and offer a choice that might impact the success of the mission.
A lot of bug fixes, thanks to everyone who reported them!
