Summary
While China was in the midst of an upheaval, the Roman Empire experienced its own decline after the death of Caesar Marcus Aurelius. Nonetheless, the citizens of Rome were provided with ample public diversion in the form of gladiator games. Through the Action Role-Playing Game, Colosseum: Road to Freedom, video gamers will experience first-hand the thrill of fighting in these gruesome spectacles, as well as the hardships of training as a slave.
