Matrix Games Forums

Hi

I was wondering if anyone ever made a computer version of “Gladiator” the old Avlon hill game, or "circus maximus". Both excellent board games. ( Oldies but goldies )

Or would Matrix consider these as posible games for developement.

I have never encountered it, but when you consider the bajillion titles that have come and gone already.

You might try asking in here.

There was an X-Box version of Circus Maximus released last year - I don't think it made it to PC.

A google search found this for Gladiator:

I used to enjoy both of these games, albeit with slightly modified rules. We changed the movement for Circus to an "impulse" based system so that chariots could not "boom & zoom" past a motionless opponent.

Check out Arena. Its a very popular gladiator game. You can even play it multi and it has a free demo version. (its a shareware game)

have you got an URl.

Latest version is Areena5. Actually they are no longer shareware, but freeware which means they are completely free.



Uh didnt remember they are in finnish only(?) If youre still willing to give it a try you can find it from here.
