A text-based sports management simulation of gladiatorial combat in a fantasy world, Coliseum is a realistic (realistic in a fantasy kind of way) look at the bloodsport of arena fighting. Featuring detailed combat results, hundreds of injuries, gambling, tournament play, magical enchantments, tactical decision making, intensive training, aging, an everchanging world, and much more, Coliseum will appeal to sport, combat, and fantasy gamers.
To sample the game please point your browser to http://www.shrapnelgames.com/stormcloud/coliseum/6.htm and download the 15 MB demo. The demo restricts certain portions of the game but overall provides you with everything you can expect in the retail game, for a chance to gain a true assessment of the full game.
If you've downloaded the demo when it was first released you'll want to try it again, as many changes were made thanks to the many wonderful suggestions by gamers in response to the original demo. Even up to the point of it going gold Stormcloud Creations has been hard at work, adding new features to provide the fans with the best possible gameplay experience.
These "hot off the press" features include:
- * A memorial screen dedicated to your retired and slain gladiators.
- * The chance to view your warrior's win/loss record against a particular upcoming opponent from previous matches.
- * A special events pop-up to let you know problems your men are facing in the arena, and even out of it.
- * Multiple save game slots.
