Gladiatorial Strategy Game that will shower you in the blood of your enemies!
Pit of War is a gladiatorial management sim where you buy slaves, equip them and give them strategies to perform while in battle and add skills from three different trees. As you play longer you can expand your stable with upgrades like a better armory, bigger barracks to house more gladiators, more vault space to store the prizes you win and so on.
Actual fighting is handled by the game where it matches up the gladiators and the output is a very colorful narrative of the fight with images of limbs being hacked off and heads being smashed in! :)
For a browser game it is surprisingly detailed and polished and very addictive. The developer is very accessible and listens to the players. There is live chat in the game and a pretty active community. The combination of coming up with a good strategy for each gladiator and choosing the right skills keeps the game interesting and challenging. If you enjoy strategy games or sims give it try.
