exploration
Play styleThe draw is moving through spaces, discovering details, and learning the world.
replayable
FitThe structure gives reasons to return rather than finish once.
solo-friendly

Steam review snapshots
As a Gladiator management game it's pretty fun – and this one feels nice and indie.Buggy, looks like ass, has horrible pathing where apparently you can't shoot arrows over a trap that isn't interrupting anything.Feels rewarding than toilsome (not too grindy).right when you think your close to the finish you discover its only just getting started !Why it fits
Check it if you want rpg, simulation filtered by weird, single-player.
