    ABOUT RAGE OF THE GLADIATOR
    You play the role of Gracius, a gladiator battling for his life in the arena. Your opponents are no ordinary evil, but are epic boss fights whose tricky attacks will challenge even the most elite gamers. There are no ‘fodder’ enemies – its all bosses -- the most fun part of games! Beat them before they brutally beat you.

    Armed with your magical warhammer and a trusty shield, you must exploit their weaknesses by jumping, dodging, shield blocking, or counter-attacking with proper timing, agility, and thinking. Then unleash your rage by brutally pounding your enemy with your warhammer, and perform over-the-top combo finishers such as summoning a a vicious lightning storm or a deadly pillar of fire.

    HIGHLIGHTS
    ✔ Stunning 3D graphics, optimized for the Retina Display on the new iPad and iPhone 5
    ✔ Full voice acting. Each boss has its own personality, and taunts you mercilessly!
    ✔ Extremely realistic animations. When you attack bosses, the impacts and hits feel “real.”
    ✔ 14 insane finishing moves. Summon a fiery meteor, a savage tornado, or transform into a hulking colossus 10x your size!
    ✔ Customize your character with new weapons and armor.
    ✔ Gain new powers and skills! How will you build your character? Choose Offense, Defense, or Magic.
    ✔ Epic music. Enjoy blood-pumping masterpieces by legendary composer Sean Beeson!
    ✔ Great replay value. Beat the game to unlock new difficulties, where bosses are much tougher with all-new abilities! Over a dozen hours of gameplay!
    ✔ Game Center leaderboard and achievements
    ✔ A monumental undertaking, with content comparable to a console title, but with a budget title price!

    So, how does this stack up against the other non-IB slicer/brawlers? It was originally a Wii game, correct? I know that since this has been released we've seen that Chillingo game, Bladeslinger, Gladiator, etc... Worth getting? forget the price, I mean, is it fun?

    Rage of the Gladiator is a lot of fun, it reminds me a lot of NES era Punch Out. It's a steal for $0.99. The only draw back is that you fight ~10 colorful villians on each difficult level so after one go round you recycle back through at a harder level. Great game.

    It's well presented, but gameplay is less fluid than some other games of its ilk, it's very much set moves to counter opponent moves. It's still a fun game and worthwhile grabbing, just don't expect it to be quite as dynamic as the other examples you mentioned.

    Really fun, but gets really hard in especially the hard mode. ;-)

    As others mentioned, it plays a lot more like the NES Punch Out than Infinity Blade. If you're in the mood, there's a lot of humor in the villians. Highly recommended.

    Thanks for the info, I think I'll skip it...really, storage space (particularly on my PC) is at a premium; so I have to consider that along with the price.

    This one had a lot of charm and was fun to play. It is not a hard game by any means and easy to see the patterns, but it still felt great to play, and the humor of it is what kept me playing. Like the other poster said, it is well presented and controls well enough. It doesn't feel Infinity Blade tough, but the gameplay is serviceable enough in a very manageable rock/paper/scissor sort of combat. Not entirely complex but still satisfying enough and still a steal for the asking price!
     
  9. Lockedz! Thanks guys.
