Cardboard Gladiators

Combines inventory management, deckbuilding, and automated combat. Players assemble a crew of three gladiators, craft and equip items, and create tactical battleplans that determine when and where each item activates.

By combining complementary effects, players can create powerful and unexpected synergies, then watch their strategy unfold automatically in battle.

Rival teams are created by other players and encountered asynchronously. Knowing an opponent’s setup gives players the chance to adapt their strategy, while routes across the map require them to balance risk, rewards and the changing needs of their build. Handcrafted PvE bosses wait at the end of each map.
