Gladiators: Survival in Rome is a survival RPG with quests, crafting and city-building aspects. Set in the era of the Roman Empire, you'll play a young warrior whose mentor went missing, and who is exploring an open world of treasure and dangers. Free slaves from cruel soldiers, explore mythic secrets in barbarian and uncharted lands and build a city of free, surviving men. Craft your weapons and armor from what you have gathered, then slay the king's legions and conquer the Roman Empire! === The first social survival game on mobile === You're not alone: Thousands of other legionnaires yearn for glory and recognition of the Roman emperor. Team up with fellow survivors or fight rivals in the arena, for you to become the greatest Gladiator before the eyes of the citizens of mighty Rome! === Features of Gladiators: Survival in Rome === • Action Combat: Free movement and hack'n'slay at its finest • Deep Crafting: Harvest plants, mine stone and chop trees all over the game world • Open World: Explore the kingdoms of the past and find treasures • City Building: Plan your home and raise your own city and farms • Strategic Choice: Customise your weapons for different effects • Unique Art Style: Hand-crafted 3D models and stunning animations • Great History: Survival against zombies is boring, we’ll put you on a historical fantasy journey into Caesar’s times! === A note from the developers === In our game, we're examining natural player behaviour to tweak our game design for the best user experience, using game analytics tools that show us in an anonymized way how users play. There's no possibility to identify you personally or have access to your personal data. Please also familiarize yourself with our privacy policy: We have built a world in Ancient Rome with myriads of puzzle pieces from a single hand-drawn pebble to procedurally generated maps for players to conquer and give the journey purpose. As with all major game development projects, reality and reception are the only source of truth so please don't be afraid to share your feelings towards any and all aspects of Colossi's first game.

Not pay to play!
06/27/2022

There are quite a few other games that are like this and utilize this same idea but this is the FIRST game that I’ve seen that is Not pay to win OR pay to play. That needs to be commended heavily because almost every single game nowadays is pay to play. You have the option to use money (obviously there needs to be a way to support the devs) but it’s completely voluntary and you can play just fine without having to pay a cent. My only issue with the game is how with a lot of the caves they lock everything behind tons of “stone” and it takes days to get through a whole cave just because of how much energy you’re forced to waste and then wait for it to come back. However if you are patient you can still make it even though it is a struggle having to wait sometimes Also idk if I’ve progressed far enough in the game but I still haven’t received a single weapon above “common”… I would hope that there are special weapons in the game that you can unlock as you fight bosses and such but I guess we’ll see. Hopefully they don’t have special weapons locked behind a paywall or some mandatory payment Otherwise this is an amazing game and the devs are doing an amazing job, keep it up!

A REVIEW FOR THE DEVS:Recently I’ve noticed that when I accomplish a lot in one session and I got to reload the game later it reloads to a point that I already completed. One of the missions is to help a guy arm his soldiers with bows and arrows. I completed that, and then did a couple merchant deals for money and upgraded my town village. When I came back later I saw that the game loaded me into a saved spot that I had already progressed past. It would help if there was either an option to pause and “save” the game, or, if there was some sort of hit with a bed that you could build so you could “sleep” and save at whatever point you are at. It made me frustrated enough that I didn’t log back in for awhile after this happened and I think it would be a way to keep your gamers engaged and coming back if you incorporated some sort of save feature. Other than that, so far so good! Fun game! Also, thank you for the recent updates adding more ways to earn stamina!

Great Idea - poor execution

This game is fun but you run out of energy way too fast. Mining energy seems to use all your energy. You can’t even finish the caves without leaving and mining energy again. Storage is also a major issue. There is very limited storage so you can’t build up reserves, and when you play an event you have to carry all the event items in your backpack bc there is no place to store any of it. Also, things cost way too much gold. You have to should be able to select the things you want to sell for gold instead if giving up valuable resources that you need to upgrade in exchange for gold. The math just doesnt make sense in this game. Lastly, there needs to be a better weapons/armour system. All the weapons are the same and you can never really upgrade them. Please continue to update the game bc it does have a chance to be really good, it just needs to be thought out more. Have the devs tried to play this game themselves???

Hello! There are many ways to restore energy which will unlock later on in the game: mini-game, the worker delegate system, various dishes with restorative effects also deserter human enemies drop walnuts which restore 3% energy and are basically free to get!

No Energy means you can’t play the game

Great game! Interesting concept and very fun. Unfortunately you get about an hour of play time before you have to either watch ads or pay money to keep playing. You use energy so quick in this game and when you have none you can’t play. So you get the option to watch a 30 second ad to replenish 20 energy. That 20 energy lasted me maybe 5 more minutes of play time being generous. After you watch 3 ads you don’t get that option anymore and then you either have to wait hours to fully replenish your energy or buy energy. A full energy bar gives you about 20 minutes of play time unless you level up in which case you get a full reset on your energy bar. Seems like a pay to play kind of game. If developers fix the energy problem and allow you to play the game as much as possible without making you watch ads or pay for energy it’d be a great game.

Hello! Sorry to hear you feel this way!
