If there’s a game that would let me skip my Walking Dead marathons, (and while waiting for Spartacus season 2 next year) this game would be it. If you guys are familiar with THIS game on the iphone/ipad that lets your finger do the slicing… well Blood and Glory is kinda like a free clone of Infinity Blade (in fact BaG is also available for the iOS). The graphics are amazing too, the game presents a perfect way to be a gladiator inside the arena while you’re on the road.
You play as a gladiator that lets you enter tournaments for some experience and money. The money you earn let’s you buy equipments for character boosts. The more levels you gain, the more combos and skills you can execute. There are 3 basic moves in this game; Slicing, Guarding and Dodging. Master your way with that and you can easily take down your opponents.
As you progress through higher tourneys, your enemies will slash the hell out of you. The game will prompt you to buy better equipment if you bit the dust. However, there will be times when you won’t have enough money and if that happens, repeating some previous tourneys will let you ease your way in earning some experience and that hard to earn cold hard cash. However, as a catch, re-entering previously accomplished tournaments won’t reap the same amount of experience and cash so you have to repeatedly re-enter those tournaments to earn.
Don’t forget to participate in Elite tournaments, the rewards are much better than regular tourneys and of course enemies are much harder to beat. Also, earning the favor of the crowds will let you gain bonuses! Mark your way through that crowd and let them shout in your behalf.
But if you have the credits, you can buy gold through real life currency that lets you buy featured equipments for a killer gladiator! That’s optional though, you can enjoy this game without that.
