Dungeon: Gladiator is a 3rd/1st Person hand-to-hand combat game that combines a reactive dueling system with an extensive set of character development & customization options.  The heart of the game centers on mortal combat between two or more gladiators, each able to purchase their own equipment, armor, and improve their skills and stats in order to help enhance their capabilities in combat.  Gladiators may join stables (server-supported clans), and compete against others for rank, old, and glory in a number of game types..

As a player, you are an aspiring gladiator. To some here, the games represent the only chance at earning freedom from an eternal servitude in the mud pits and ore mines under the foulest taskmasters.  Others see the games as the perfect place to gain recognition and reward for their physical prowess in the absence of war.  But whether a slave or soldier, Human or Ogre, it is the promise of greatness and renown that has led you to the games? To succeed, you must of course have strength and speed to overcome your opponents, but every great veteran knows that it is their wit and skill that will see them through the battle, and through the favor of the crowd that they will achieve the very heights of glory or fall to distant obscurity.  Make careful alliances and beware what enemies you leave in your wake?  Will it be victory or death that you face at the end of your blade?​
