GLADIUM


Hey! If you enjoy short and sweet reviews, follow my curator page [url]here![/url] I am an independent Curator providing reviews and insights to the games that need the spotlight! Thank you! :) 

Gladium is the project of Eirik Wiklund a one man developer studio and yes, the game reminded me of Domina , a strategy game where you took charge of a Ludus, training and preparing Gladiators in a management approach, where the fights were simulated. Both games enjoy the pixel art style and that’s where the comparison should end.

This is quite a difficult game to review tbh. It is a very unforgiving game, some of the bosses you will fight will kill you many times, the part that some people may dislike the most is it’s grind system to be able to defeat the bosses or even try another go at them (you gain blood points to trade for perks and for another chance at a boss if you fail), meaning that if you lose to a boss you will have to play either normal mode or horde mode to try again, making the game VERY repetitive. You will also earn gold to unlock new equipment, which is necessary to try different strategies as you cannot fight all the bosses in the same manner (at least I advise againts it). Ultimately I’m giving it a thumbs up because I had fun the whole 14 hours I played and I even got a little addicted, the theme helped as I really like gladiator style fighting games, but be warned, if you get frustrated easily this may not be for you.

Million to One Hero

Million to One Hero

I am having fun with it, but don’t get your hopes up for new levels being made. I had this game for about 1 1/2 months and have only seen 1 other person make 2 levels (the game has a lot of older levels though). Also, I have like 3 to 4 people clear the levels I have made (only can see who has cleared the level and not failed it.) , and people can’t up vote a level until they have cleared it.

You can also increase your rank by doing task in other players levels ( kill baddies with a bow, or collect orbs), but the rank doesn’t seem to do anything that I am aware of. Good luck trying to get a task done though if players don’t use certain things in their levels.

Another underrated lever editor platformer, Million to One Hero hits a great balance of fun platforming and adventure-based story. While the editor can take a bit to learn, it has a few key additions that separate this game from other level editors, such as NPCs and dialogue. It also features an adventure creator, where you can string multiple levels together to make a larger story.

As is, Million to One Hero is a solid level editor game, and while it could use a bit more work to make it great, it is certainly one worth checking out and I heartily recommend it.

-BETA REVIEW-

Fun game, really like the story and i was really determined to get good scores THANKS FORXA BTW for making it super hard to get 1K points lmao

Its definitely one of those games that are quick to learn but difficult to master, despite its rng but its the rng makes it fun to fight again and again until you got nice scores

For a game made by one person, I can see potential in this and hope to see it updating and bring out more fights in the future

It’s a fun little game. Getting a win feels satifsying, fights can get intense, has an interesting story and kick-ass music. It’s a bit clunky sometimes but all-in-all, it’s enjoyable and I recommend.

PRIMAL DUNGEON

Primal Dungeon is an extremely fun and action-packed game! In it you play with Gaia, a very charismatic character, which is impossible not to be enchanted! In addition, the game has incredible scenarios and sounds! I’m in love!

I only passed one level. This game is really hard, but you don’t care about it because it is really fun. Just buy it!
