Favorite game although there’s glitches

This has been my favorite game throughout my childhood & that’ll never change but i’d be glad to see if the dev’s change the glitch where it kicks me out of the game whenever i sleep on day 1 of a new game & the game restarts when i drink the “power” potion

Game crash loop

I was about to beat the game but every time I go to log back in my character dies of hunger, I get revived because of my amulet and immediately crash over and over. My only option is to either start from scratch or stop playing completely.

Would be 5 but

I keep experiencing a game breaking bug that forces a crash every time I’m grinding after the first arena. Shortly into the second arena, between day 40 and day 62, when loading into town, my character model spawns above the platform, drops there, dies and the game promptly crashes.

I love this home but ever since the update the game won’t work

Every time I get to the 4 gladiator fight it won’t let me play the fight it’s really annoying because this was my favorite game until it started doing this I’ve tried deleting and reinstalling but nothing works i really hope this issue gets resolved so I can play it again oh and if it matters I play on an iPhone 13 Pro Max so maybe it still works for other devices idk

Death bug

Occasionally when I fight for hp and mana my character will instantly die before I can even attack. Game is fun but this is completely stopping me from progressing.

Unavoidable crash stops progress

Every time I load up my save file, my level 27 mage is in the market area and he makes a hurt sound even though I easily won the prior fight. It lasts a fraction of a second and the whole app crashes. No progress can be made. I tried clicking inventory, shops anything before it crashes, but it’s not possible. I was really enjoying it too :( But tbh, this is one of the best apps. I love turned based rpgs and this is challenging in the best way

Was a fun game but can’t play past the 3rd fight because of bugs and there’s no way around it.

:/

There seems to be a glitch where when just starting after the third enemy in the first arena the game becomes completely unplayable to where you cannot fight anymore enemies and cannot progress. Please fix this problem as I would like to be able to actual play the game.

All around a great game I love playing it only thing is there is a bug right now that doesn’t let you battle the 4th gladiator in the 1st arena making it impossible to progress in the game.

Found some other people who can not proceed past 4th opponent. I even purchased the remove ads. Complete waste of time and money

★★★★☆ United States · v1.062 · 10 May 2023

Bug Pattern

Every time I get to the fourth fighter (1st phase!) the game bugs and doesn’t let me progress or fight gladiators. Attempting to use scroll of discovery does not fix the issue and makes any gladiator discovered also not fightable. Never happened before would be cool to play this again I’ve enjoyed it for about a year now so it’s new issue and the pattern is consistent.

Bug makes it unplayable

I’ve been playing this game for years on android and I love it. But when I downloaded it recently on iPhone I’ve found that during each game I cannot proceed past the third battle in chapter one. I tap the fourth battle and nothing happens. I have had this problem happen on every single run since downloading the game so I’ve never even been able to get to the first boss fight. Even after uninstalling and reinstalling the game it still persists. Why, why cannot I play this fun game.

— Bblah1

★★★★★ United States · v1.062 · 14 Aug 2023

This is an amazing game that I have no problem with in any way. You guys nailed it first try. But I can’t fight the fourth guy in the first tier. I click it and nothing happens, ever.

Bug makes Gladiator Rising Unplayable

Very enjoyable concept, but you could hardly call this a game. You CANNOT pass the 3rd stage. Not because of difficulty, but due too a neglectful development team that has ignored their community for months. After the most recent update (4 months ago for ‘bug fixes’ and ‘iOS 14’,) a bug appeared that prevents you from accessing the 4th opponent and makes this “game” completely unplayable. Gladiator Rising Demo is what this should be called. Many people have voiced their concerns, and no action has been taken. I strongly discourage anyone from downloading and wasting their time. I would say try out the 2nd Gladiator Rising, but it is just as buggy and neglected. I DO NOT RECOMMEND UNTILL FIXED

Broken Game

I'd like to write a more comprehensive review, but the game quite literally doesn't allow you to progress past the fourth fight. I assume it's some weird coding bug, where the fight is inaccessible... even though it shows as available. Beside that, it earns 2/5 stars for everything else. When you rest you refill health/stam/mana, as well as get exp and gold and gear due to a fight with a random enemy matching your level. Three classes to choose from (fighter/rogue/maga) which all three seem fun. Couldn't play to much to get a full feel due to the game breaking bug. Hopefully it gets fixed. Reminded me of some childhood favorites from Kongregate. Rip to that website.

Game glitch

This game is amazing I've played and beaten a countless amount of times every time i beat the final boss I restart and it never gets old Ive been playing it for years but now I’m not able to do that because when I play in the first arena when I get to the 4th fighter I am unable to load in the game I keep clicking on him but nothing happens and I even went on another device and it still has the same issue so now I’m barely able to play the game

Gamebreaking bug makes game unplayable

Seriously? What sad excuse of a game is this? It’s impossible to enter a battle with the 4th opponent in the 1st arena, thereby preventing you from ever progressing. I never make reviews, but I feel like this is needed to bring attention to the developers of what they need to fix.

It’s a real shame it’s so buggy.

I first found this game in 2018 and it was fantastic. I’ve been playing for the last few years and there’s a specific bug on the 3 or 4th boss that literally won’t let you move forward because you can’t even choose them. Dev’s please try and fix the bugs. That being said I don’t think they will anytime soon since the last patch was almost a year ago.

Major game flaw

I started playing but after the first 3 gladiators it wouldn’t allow me to select the 4th. I just kept sleeping and tapping on everything trying to figure out what I was supposed to do until I starved to death. I don’t know what I was missing… the game just stopped allowing me to fight new gladiators. I am on an iPhone 13 and just downloaded this game. What a disappointment, I was having fun.

Heyyyy

Right so I saw this game in the play store with 1mil+ downloads, and I was like, ok I’ll get this on my iPad. I got it and I love it so much. I got the game on Mon 11 May and defeated the final boss, the game master the next day. I was level 31, and I thrashed a level 60 boss. Cuz I was bored. (Quarantine bois). I died like 10 times before I got good. The tactic is get berserker ability, and you will literally destroy people. I’ve completed the game now, and I absolutely love it. Just get it, it’s really epic. Good work devs people. I hope there’s something else to do, apart from roaming, but I’ll keep the game just to flex. Also please put the sequel on the AppStore, or I’ll cry 😢
