Ludus Aeternus

Between kills you spend what he earns. Gold buys attack, armour and crit in the market. Gems rank up the moves he casts on his own. Training Points buy masteries in the camp, where the practice dummy can never kill him. Every fifth wave is a boss, and bosses always drop gear.

Gear is where the build lives: equip what drops, salvage the rest for scrap, then reforge and augment what you kept. When the arena stops giving ground, you ascend. Trade the whole run for soul shards and start again permanently stronger, deep enough to reach zones the last run never saw.

Features

• Two places, one fight: a camp that cannot kill you, an arena that can
• Nine moves your gladiator casts himself, and you buy how hard they land
• Gear with rarities, affixes, reforging and augments
• Masteries, oaths, patrons and contracts
• Ascension, zones, and a boss every fifth wave

How to play

Mouse or touch is the whole game. Your gladiator attacks, blocks and casts by himself, and you never move him and never aim.
