![]() ![]() Otherwise the game is really fun with great graphics and excellent game play. ![]() It would be much better if you could just buy the game outright then have to spend so money on equipment. That’s probably the biggest issue with the game and one of the biggest complaints by reviewers. Just winning tournaments doesn’t seem to provide enough points to upgrade significantly. It seems very difficult to proceed very far in the game without having to upgrade your equipment which will require some cash. But your potions carry from one tournament to the other so if you use it all then that’s it. As you gain points you can upgrade and buy more equipment and potions.Īlthough the game is free you might have to spend some money to buy gold coins. Your health meter carries over from fight to fight and doesn’t regenerate. You have potions during the game to regain health, attack and shield to help win the match. I found that using health potions was the biggest help in winning matches. Once you enter a tournament you need to win five fights to become victorious. The attacks become more difficult to predict and harder to avoid. As you move to more difficult opponents you’ll have to evade two to three attacks in a row before being able to strike back. At first, you wait for the opponent to attack then either dodge, parry or block which then gives you a chance to attack back. The game tends to be easy at the beginning but becomes quickly difficult. Also during the game play your view-point will switch which adds another challenge to dodging and parrying. If you master parry then you will be well on your way to becoming a champion gladiator. You have to swipe the screen exactly in the opposite direction of the incoming attack with correct timing. Parry is the best way to fight but also the hardest to master. You begin with only 10 shield points but you can upgrade with better armor or potions. You can block with your shield but each attack will take shield points based on the type of attack. You can dodge by pressing either the button on the left or right side of the screen and it needs to correctly correspond with the attack coming from the same side. But this game is more about dodging, parry and block then just hack and attack. You can attack by swiping across the screen and there are 3 combos that you can use. Some users do complain about the controls but I found that it was easy to use and designed well for the game. You are stationary with options to attack, dodge, block and parry. The game is in third-person style and you can’t move your character around the arena. But that’s okay because with skill and some good armor you can take them down. The first thing you notice when you play the game is that all your opponents are bigger then you. ![]() Now on to the good stuff.īlood & Glory has great graphics with realistic fighting and action. But the NR version worked fine and I had no issues or crashes during game play. Also that was the only version I could get to work on my Galaxy Tab 10.1 as the no blood version constantly crashed during download. I played the NR version of the game because I personally enjoy blood when I slash my opponents. But this game is no cake walk so be prepared to bring it all to survive in the arena and claim your glory as a champion gladiator. This game lets you live out your fantasy as a gladiator fighting in the arena to the death in front of blood-thirsty crowds. In general, I love the gladiator genre and that’s why I was excited to review Blood & Glory. Despite all the gory blood it’s a well done show with sophisticated plot and very entertaining. It’s about Spartacus fighting in the gladiator arena and basically involves fighting, blood, sex and politics. One of my favorite shows on TV is Spartacus: Blood and Sand which is aptly titled.
