Version history
2.5.0
2021-01-29
* All battle skill essence costs have been HALVED
* Increased the base hit chance of all arcane offensive skills by 15%
* Reduced the difficulty of enemies on hard/ironman and sprint modes
* Halved the distance gladiators can be knocked back / pushed in a single hit
* Halved the rate at which strength affects knockback power
* TAUNT attack and defend hit chances now properly scales with Charisma instead of Magicka stat
* Increased the chances of successful TAUNTS doing physical damage (instead of enraging/stunning etc)
* Increased the damage of successful TAUNT attacks to 8-16 HP per Charisma point put into taunts
* Reduced hit chance of any one single attack to 90% (down from 99%) unless stunned/resting etc
* Resistance values now max out at 80% (down from 99%) unless a gladiator has 100% resistance ( which means they are IMMUNE)
* Enemy gladiators can now no longer be of equal to / higher level than the reigning Arena Champion's level
* Increased the chance of gladiators falling into spiked pit to 10% per turn spent
* Ghost Tournament Champions now have unlimited Essence as an added challenge
* Damage to enemies now is cumulative. If an enemy has 25 armour and you do 100 damage, not only does the armour go down to 0, you also take an extra 75 points of damage.
* Added a shake screen if you one-shot your enemy.
* Gold rewards for rolling a 20 when resurrecting have been reduced to 50 gold + 25 gold per level
* Made damage splat image popups smaller
* Removed knockback effect from Molten Death spell
* Reduced damage of enemies in all difficulties except normal
* Reduced max health of enemies in all difficulties except normal
* Magic Missile cooldown improves with each point spent on skill
* Removed error logging for most users as it throws up too many 'false flag' errors that do not affect the game but still show up in error reports
* Removed elemental resistances. These were stats introduced in S&S V that ended up affecting gladiators in S&S 2 ( because they use the same engine/codebase ), so gladiators would be immune to some of your spells and you had no way to combat it. (You only have 'magic' resistance in S&S 2.
* Changed how magic resistance works. Spells that fail to hit now show a "MISS" icon (instead of RESIST). Successful spells damage is *reduced* by whatever your magic resistance is. (A fireball spell that hits for 200 damage against a character with 50% magic resist will only do 100 damage, for example)
*
Fixed a bug where Falcon Eyes skill used melee damage instead of ranged damage values
* Increased damage power of Winters Core per point spent on skill
* Fixed a bug where the game forced you to start up in Fullscreen mode even after you had chosen Windowed mode.
* Fixed a bug where gladiators did not play their special 'spiked' death animation when falling onto spikes
* Potential fix for enemies sometimes receiving 2 turns in a row
* Fixed a bug where enemies appeared to half leap/half fumble (then get cut off) randomly during the battle
* Fixed a bug where choosing the helmet of a defeated Ghost Champion would give you the next champion's helmet
* Fixed a bug where Arena Champion Gaiax appeared to have two eyes instead of one
* Fixed a bug where duels were reported as being deathmatches and yield animations were not playing
* Fixed a bug where arenas sometimes scrolled past where they should and sky was visible behind
* Fixed some jittery camera bugs while in the arena
* Fixed a bug where the first fight after a loss to a Ghost Champion would be against a ghost regular gladiator
* You can now choose Redux backgrounds or classic backgrounds *seperately* from redux / classic shopkeepers to customize just how you want your game to look. Just toggle these from the * Settings screen ( you may need to set this manually the first time you load the game again.)
* Fixed a bug where the game would tell you it was nighttime but the town background showed daylight

TastyTato,
Nostalgia
I played this game as a kid and I’m really happy it’s in the App Store today! I think overall this has never been a 5 star game so I can’t really expect it to be one today but I would definitely like to see big fixes and balancing fixes.
I like the new skill system that’s introduced but it’s overshadowed by the fact that your progression of skill points can’t keep up with the gladiators in the arena unless you know metas. This game wasn’t really intended to be “hard” as much as it is “luck based” but I’m over here dumping stats into my attack still and I still come up with %30 chances to hit endgame.
The daily quest mechanic is really nice however it’s annoying to click through the day in order to access it. There should really just be a button to access the daily quest so we can quickly get random skill points when we are struggling.
Overall high scores could be presented by how many days it takes for people to beat the arena that way there isn’t necessarily a punishment for going on a quest but you should be striving not to go on them.

risha70,
Glitch?
I love this game, I even bought the Maximus Upgrade because it was my favorite game back in the day, I wasn’t disappointed either. There was a few minor details (some are glitches) that have bugged me since I started playing. Dungeon XIV (14) has the hardest challenges in there. When I beat the gladiators I immediately died to the dungeon keeper because of how hard he is. You can’t even defend against him since all of his attacks hit and you only have a 25% chance of hitting, making it near impossible. And this is for other fights too where people have several hundreds more power than you and you can only get 25% chance. Anyways, when I went into the Gladiators fight, it took like 20 straight minutes because of the challenge. He wasn’t even he boss! And when I beat him, it gave me an achievement saying I won with 5% health or something and it said I died. I had to reroll my luck and ended losing almost all my money. This made me extremely mad and almost convinced me to delete it, but I still love the aspect of the game. Maybe remove the 25% chance of hitting for harder enemies and I’ll give it 5/5 rating. Thank you!
NewVoltageHD,
Better than the original mobile game. Has it's quirks
This game is decent but it does not have the niche appeal of the original game. There are some changes that I don't agree with but overall I don't consider it to be a cash grab. If the developers read this then I would recommend adding certain content back. First add back the original enchanting with elements as it was a fun creative addition. Second the exp rates need to be lowered due to the fact that I unlock new weapons and armor before I can finish the previous set. This game could be great with some small changes. If you have nostalgia for the old game, I would not recommend the full version but if you like swords and sandals then I would buy it. (There are features from the old game that are not listed with the Maximus upgrade description)
Thanks E-games.
(Also please create Swords and Sandals 3 with multiplayer for mobile, don't redux it, just
remaster it. People would buy it 😉)

Avondale Lax,
A supreme strategy on the go.
This game is incredible. After it’s most recent update so many improvements and bug fixes were made, any past complaints are gone. This game is nearly perfect. Allowing you a long lasting strategy game on your mobile device. It’s a thing that’s hard to come by nowadays.
With the new update so many new play styles have become viable, adding a ton of new replay-ability. If you were burnt by this game in the past, now’s the time to check it out. Understand that all the negative reviews that plague this game are from another era when this was just a bad port of a flash game. Mobile users just don’t update their reviews after patches and bug fixes. Now S&S is running smoother than ever. Countless hours of fun.
Ps. Try a ‘Taunt’ build with all Charisma. Can be fun!

I have one question though and I’m curious to know if anyone has experienced this but I feel like the game lagged out or something because I completed about 6 or 7 tournaments and don’t know how to advance in the game.I purchased the Maximus edition too and I literally reached level 60 and it says all I have to do is fight the emperor but like the game never progressed me forward is this normal? I really want to continue with the story but idk what to do now Maximus edition mentions 20 tournament so I’m confused any help? Also I never got the Maximus armor either so I’m kinda bummed about that. Thank you!

Fun game overall
This game brings me back to 2008, in college lit courses playing swords and sandals. Glad to be playing it. Since I used to play it back in the day I figured I’d support and buy the full app. It was great, started off with gear and all that. Now I am at the point where I have to upgrade to keep competitive. The problem is the app freezes every time I purchase a weapon or armor. Other than that it’s fun. Basically I am stuck at this skill level for this character, need to start over. I will see if I am able to progress through the game as promised with the full purchase.

So much potential still
Swords and sandals 2 was my favorite computer game growing up besides big name games like club penguin, toontown, bloons tower defense, etc. It just confuses me why this developer choose to change everything that seemed to work well in swords and sandals 2. Don’t change the layout and graphics and characters builds so much. Keep the characters consistent and game consistent like it was successful previously. You could add more swords, axes, bows, spells, armor. Create a different emperor. Make new bosses. Guarantee this could even make a great xbox or playstation game. There’s just so much potential.

Solid but wish the progression didn’t end!
I use to play this game on my computer when I was younger and I was excited when I saw it got added to mobile. I grinded through all of the bosses but when I got 3 away from the Emperor my character “maxed out”. No better weapons or armor in the shop to buy, no more skill points to spend, no more progression besides playing. And with the tournaments brings 12 duels each it’s pretty frustrating not being able to level up anymore. Other than that it’s a really good make of the game I use to play.

Don’t gain EXP after level 3. Frustrating...
I used to play this game years ago and loved it. I was so excited to stumble across it on the App Store. I immediately paid the $4.99 pack because I knew I’d spend hours playing this again.
After my first character, I noticed I was playing matches and not earning EXP. I played 4 more matches and sure enough, no exp gain. I closed and relaunched the app, played another match.. nothing.
I decided to make another character thinking maybe something messed up when I paid the $4.99 pack. Nope. Right at level 3 again, no more EXP gain.
Please please please fix this. I really love your game and would love to get some dang EXP. Not sure if you care to much about ratings, but I’ll gladly bring this back to 5 stars if this can get patched.

Great game
I’ve been a fan of the series for a long time, but oddly enough Swords and Sandals 2 has always been my favorite. The game on the computer wasn’t perfect, but regardless the nostalgia of playing one of my favorite games back in the day prompted me to buy the Maximus upgrade. Wasn’t disappointed. There are a couple kinks that need fixing, but the redux was very well made and fixed a lot of problems that were in the original Swords and Sandals 2 game. The storytelling element was also a very nice touch as well. Kudos to you guys, thanks for the great game!!
