Ancient Gladiators

Ancient Gladiators is a third-person sword-fighting game where you play as a gladiator and fight friends or bots in an arena. It has solo and team deathmatch, with permanent death: the solo survivor or surviving team wins. You choose how to fight your opponents.

Arena and teams

The game has one arena and five team options: solo, Scorpii, Lupii, Serpentii and Aquila.

Combat

Attacks can go in infinite directions. You hold and release a basic attack, or use a special move for a lethal attack. You can also finish an enemy with a deathblow, dodge by rolling or standing, and block or parry incoming attacks. Blocking uses collision; a shield improves the block, and a successful block stuns the opponent briefly.
