Spartacus: A Game of Blood and Treachery
Step into the savage world of Ancient Rome, where politics, betrayal, and bloodshed collide. Spartacus: A Game of Blood and Treachery is more than a board game—it’s an experience of intrigue, deception, and gladiatorial combat. Each player assumes the role of a Dominus, head of a powerful house vying for influence and supremacy. Through clever bidding, underhanded schemes, and brutal arena battles, you will forge your path to dominance. Can you outwit your rivals in the halls of power and outfight them in the sands of the arena?
Gameplay Experience:
Every round is divided into phases of plotting, bidding, and combat. Forge alliances with other houses, but beware—friends can quickly become enemies when power is on the line. Intrigue cards allow you to sabotage rivals and sway the political balance, while Market cards introduce new gladiators, equipment, and slaves to bolster your house. Finally, the gladiators clash in the arena, where wagers are made, blood is spilled, and glory is earned. The combination of diplomacy, strategy, and sheer brutality ensures that no two games are ever the same.
