Description

The floor of the Colosseum (sic) had been divided into two almost equal halves, separated by a tall wooden wall. On each side of the wall wild animals stalked across the hot sands . . . bears, slinking lions and leopards and the solitary tigers who claimed the dubious honor of being the most dangerous of the beasts to hunt and kill . . . Two teams of men emerged onto the field. At the head of each team three spearmen . . . behind them a pair of swordsmen . . . the last man out of each gate carried a heavy lead mace.

The players control separate teams of six gladiators facing off in separate arenas against four animals.
