About this game

Openglad continues Gladiator, the action RPG by the Forgotten Sages Development Team. Start a company, hire a fighter at Base Camp, and head into the first mission. You control one fighter at a time while the others act on their own. Classes have different attacks and abilities, and surviving fighters can train between battles.

This edition uses the Openglad Project’s v2.1098 browser build. Continue restores your company at Base Camp, with your roster and funds saved in this browser. The archive player is set up for solo play. The original project hosts its own online play.
