Age Of Gladiators

[Nefaro]

"Joey?  Do you like movies about gladiators?"    :))


A new roster management style text sim came out recently.  This one doesn't look too bad, although I'm not sure how much depth it has in the RPG customization bit.  Still.. looks more promising than that other attempt by a different dev.

Anyone check it out yet?

At ten bucks and with good reviews, I bought it immediately and I'm about to dive into it. Steelie does like gladiator movies (ahem....don't assume anything from that, fellas). And hopefully gladiator games.

I still remember the gladiator battles from Centurion: Defender of Rome fondly.

Well I don't know anything about foldling Gladiators, but this game looks good to me too. Anybody played it yet?

I'll probably pick it up in the near future.  Just grabbed Atlantic Fleet, and having fun with that, so it will have to wait.  Briefly.  >:D


Judging from the vid, it looks like the weak spot is in the combat text side.  Not really any extra fluff there, even in the turn-by-turn descriptions.  Not sure how much I'd read battles with more expansive narration, but I'd think that it would add to the suspense with more effort there.  The rest of it looks very sport sim roster management style, which is the main draw for me.  :)

Looks interesting, some of the reviews mention it's not very deep, so waiting to hear more impressions.
