Colosseum is an "educational
shooter" that
puts you in the middle of the gladiatorial bloodsport of Ancient Rome.
You play the role of Gluteus, a thief who finds himself on the wrong
side of the emperor. Ignorant of all history and facts, Gluteus must educate himself
about his surroundings in order to survive.
Learn about your enemies, their weapons, their origins...and then
slaughter them like pigs.
In the interest of shameless
self-promotion, I've
linked to some feedback about Colosseum 1.0 in the press and on the web:
