How to play Gladiator Arena
Fight in the arena and be the last gladiator with stocks remaining.
Watching stamina drain while you weigh blocking against dodging turns each exchange into a quick read of your opponent's next swing.
- WASD to move
- Aim with the mouse
- J or left-click to strike, K or right-click for a heavy hit
- Hold Shift to block, Space to dodge
💡 Blocking drains stamina, so time dodges for incoming heavy attacks instead.
💡 Mix light and heavy strikes so opponents can't predict which hit is coming and simply block or dodge every attempt.
