How it feels

A retro arcade action platformer with fast combat against Romans, feeling like a pixelated gladiator adventure.

What players say

Players are split on this retro platformer. Many praise its fast, arcade-style action and nostalgic 16-bit look, but a large number report game-breaking bugs like falling through floors and getting stuck in walls, especially in later levels. The default keyboard controls and lack of volume sliders also draw criticism.
