The Elevator Pitch

Classic snake, meets the binding of Isaac on the stage of the Roman Colosseum. Clear waves of enemies to rescue and build a team of followers to take on ferocious enemies by harnessing a legendary sword’s magic. 

Each follower gives an increase in power, whilst making the player more vulnerable to the enemy’s attacks. 

Clear each stage of the tournament to fight the big boss waiting for you at the end and claim your title as the greatest gladiator the arenas have ever witnessed.

Wield a magical sword to strike down your foes!


Command a legion of followers to aid in battle!
