What players say
Players enjoy the tactical gladiator combat and squad building, but consistently complain that late-game arenas are too crowded with damaging obstacles, making fights a slog against the map itself. Multiple reviewers also warn there is no saving during a battle chain, and a few note that targeting enemies in the thick of melee is frustratingly imprecise.
