The thirst for blood and the desire to see it shed is nothing new to human society. With modern civilization, rules were put into place to prevent bloodshed for sport, but ancient society saw nothing wrong with spilling blood for the entertainment of the crowds.
One of the most famous bloodsports of all time was the gladiator fights in the Roman Colosseum and similar arenas throughout the ancient world.
In ‘Gladiators Manager’ players experience not only the violence and the bloodshed of the fight, but the cruelty and hardship that comes with the acquisition, training, and preparation of the gladiators.
Players start out in charge of a “failing” gladiator school. They must bring the school back from the bring and start turning out a profit by training gladiators that will win them money and allow them to expand and upgrade the school, acquire better weapons and gear, and give their gladiators more advanced training that will ensure success in the arena.
As they progress players will have to face a variety of setbacks and challenges, including enemies that try to destroy their schools, tough competition, deaths and retirement among their ranks, and more.
Players must decide on the best course of action to take in each case to ensure the survival and growth of their school, wealth, fame, and power.
‘Gladiators Manager is developed by ‘Ancient Games,’ and ‘Gambit Games.’ The game will be released on Steam at a date that is yet to be announced by the developers.
