Primus

About the Game

Primus is a brutal Roman gladiator arena crawler where you build a Ludus, lead fighters through deadly arena circuits, and climb the ranks toward the title of Primus.

Survive the Spectacle

Choose your leader, prepare your gladiators, and enter blood-soaked arena runs filled with tactical fights, crowd events, rival champions, beasts, injuries, and final bouts.

Each circuit is a test of survival. Your gladiators must endure the whole run before they can return home with rewards, scars, and hard-earned progress.

The crowd is watching and the sand is waiting.
