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 → 2.86/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,400 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.

Amazing, has everything you would hope for in a spartacus game, even spartacus himself In these kind of league games i usually just find some cheese and 1shot every league but this game is very punishing for mistakes and does not seem to have an obvious cheesy strategy so far, very good!!! First session took me 4 hours, finished 1st season 8th place still in lowest league, definitely doing another one tomorrow to see if i can reach the top 3 promotion in my 2nd season
I can not recommend the game in it's current state. Balance is all over the place and mechanics are poorly explained and implemented. UI elements can be frustrating trying to move between views and basic sorting. The elements are there but the game is going to require a bit of help.

As things stand, I’d give the video game a 6. The concept is nice, but it’s currently very rough around the edges. The names of the ludus aren’t written in Latin but have absurd, made-up names like Maranello, which undermine the realism of Roman society. The game relies mainly on AI. Battles cannot be sped up or simulated, which makes the game repetitive (seven divisions is a lot when played this way). p.s: 25 euros is a lot to pay for a game in this state.
Its still clearly in development but its one of the best glad management games out there, its exactly what a management sim should be. Keep up the good work and i will be waiting for all the updates. This one will be great if it doesnt get abandonded! Keep going!
Alright, I really like it. It´s exactly what I hoped for, just a gladiotor simulator without magic/story/whatever crap. Just manage your gladiotors and watch them fight. Of course there is a lot of stuff that needs to be improved (UI!) but it´s fine for early access. No bugs discovered so far, no crash.
I'm enjoying this way more than I should be. I was prepared to be disappointed, and came in with low expectations. Bought it a few days ago and already have 22 hours logged in. That's the sign of a fun game that you don't want to put down. One more round...... Sure some of the stuff is a bit wonky and people might complain a bit about the interface. Those same people probably don't have any friends. Its a good way to burn $20. I look forward to when they polish this up a bit.
This is my first impression review.. I'm still in the first season 3 matches deep! I wanted to leave a review as to kind of what my thoughts were. At first, I had thought this would be like the old playstation 2 Game I had played about gladiators, Boy was I wrong! lol. But that didn't take from the game being fun- Multiplayer I had thought would be kinda you build up a house and can start matchmaking against other people, that was also wrong! But it doesnt detract me from the overall charm of the game I feel. This right now, feels like a beautiful balance of risk/reward. It isn't easy, and it feels alot like I would hope a good gladiator boardgame would feel, truly. You pick your ludus, and you start with a roster of gladiators. From there, you can buy/sell both gladiators and equipment, even make tactics(formations) to use in battles with aggro settings. The multiplayer seems like its going to be similar approach, management and players control other ludus'. Overall, I'm actually having a decent deal of fun. I think if you don't get caught offguard from what the game is, you can have alot of fun.
很好的游戏,玩起来还蛮不错。 但是,能不能把汉化搞好一点,这文本量也不大啊,属性都汉化不了嘛 其次,希望能丰富优化一下战斗的流畅度,我想看到的是酣畅淋漓的战斗,加一点花式和连招在观感上会好得多
For the people leaving bad reviews. -for your guys to fight better they need to survive, they need to develop as a fighter. To maximize success assign a trainer early with a good perk and make your star fighter go through heavy training until he becomes strong and athletic and aquire the new perk. This game is hard but once you have a solid 5 stack to rely on you can swap in newer guys to put hair on their chest if they survive. It takes time to get the hang of but once you do you become Cesar.
Bom jogo, mas muito cru ainda, precisa de updates com melhorias, então aconselho que compre um pouco mais para frente!
