Mastermind schemes and undermine your rivals with cards from your hand. Betrayal and treachery are your weapons of choice. Money greases the wheels of power. Bid against your opponents in the open market, and acquire the best new prospects for the Arena! Pit your champion against your enemy’s, and wager on the results. The path to victory leads across the sacred sands of the Arena!
In Spartacus: A Game of Blood & Treachery—an exciting game of twisted schemes and bloody combats inspired by the hit STARZ Original series—each player takes on the role of Dominus, head of a rising house in the ancient Roman city of Capua. Each house is competing for Influence to gain the favor of Rome. Through a combination of political schemes and glorious battles on the arena sands your house will rise in fame and stature. As Dominus, you have a variety of resources at your disposal. Guards protect you from schemes launched by rivals. Slaves run your household and earn gold. Gladiators compete to bring glory to themselves and influence to their Dominus.
