I was really excited to play this game! I realized the potential #1 had, and was waiting for you to make a sequel. I was so happy to see it finally released! Then I realized that to play the full version you expect us to pay money. Now I'm sad.
:(
Loved it!
I just loved it how you could develop your character and could become a mighty gladiator.
I played the first part and this one has some nice new additions and ideas, like the ranged weapons, weapons needing str/agi and armor giving more than just a protection bonus.
What would be even better though, if we could do missions and gain fame, if you could have battles with more than just 1 on 1, how about battles with parties? or even battles with your friends? ( 2 player mode ).
How about sponsors? wich require you to do certain things, yes.. there where sponsors back then.
How about when an enemy finishes you, let the emperor decide whether you live or not? (thump down/up ).
Grades
Graphics - 8
I liked the animations and the cartoony design.
Very well done.
Style - 9
I loved the gameplay and character development, it gave me a realy middleage feeling.
Sound - 7
Sound wasn't the best thing in this game, it could've used better things like warcries, more sounds for attacks and getting hurt, also the background music wasn't that good.
Though, there was sound and it was decent enough.
Voilence - 8
Voilence, that where this game is all about, and i loved it.
Interactivity - 9
Great! Lots of things to do, but it just misses a few things from being perfect.
Humor - 4
Not mutch funny things, though there where some laughable things, not realy the point of the game i guess.

It's being built as we speak! About 2 weeks into build.... so it's got a long while to go yet. No minigames or any gimmicks, *but* the gladiators have a whole new style to them... I'll post some pics in a few weeks time.
its good but it would be better if you didnt lose all progress on death
