About
You run a training school for gladiators in the last years of the Roman Republic, trying to build a name for yourself before the city moves on without you. Every choice sticks. Every bond you let slide starts to rot.
The setup is simple: Rome does not pause for anyone, and a lanista who spends his days managing fighters and favors has to decide which relationships are worth the effort and which ones are dead weight. The game is built around that pressure, told through text rather than scenes you watch play out.
Beyond the day-to-day running of the ludus, there are separate tales to work through, with more story content still being added. It plays like a management sim wearing a toga: you weigh people, resources, and reputation, and the city keeps score whether you're paying attention or not.
