A lighthearted turn-based gladiator romp with roguelike dungeon crawling and a retro colorful aesthetic.

What players say
Players love the classic Swords and Sandals feel and the new dungeon crawling, but nearly everyone says the game is too buggy to play comfortably. Frequent crashes and freezes, especially in dungeons and champion fights, frustrate even fans. Magic builds are widely considered useless because enemies resist all magic.
