Our Philosophy

Fair Progression

Fair Progression

We all remember the classics and how they turned into wallet races over time. We’re bringing back what made them great, without the frustration. Here, time and skill matter, not a credit card.

Strategy over Clicking

Strategy over Clicking

This isn’t “click and wait.” Combat in Glads & Lads is turn-based, tactical, and engaging, every choice matters.

Community at the Core

Community at the Core

Guilds, trading, co-op adventures, and a living economy create a world that truly breathes. We believe in games that bring players together.

Beyond the Hype of Speed Servers

Beyond the Hype of Speed Servers

We don’t chase quick resets and lightning-fast grind. Glads & Lads is built for players who want real progression, not a race that ends after a week.

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers about the world of Glads & Lads and what awaits you in the arena.

Yes, the game will use a Free-to-Play model.
In many MMORPGs, the free-to-play model gives paying players a massive advantage in the Item Shop, sometimes even letting them skip parts of the game. In Glads & Lads, that will never be the case.

We’re committed to a clear, fair Item Shop that supports your progress instead of replacing the game. Our priorities are updates, new features, and balance, not endless sales. We want everyone, paying or not, to have a fair shot at having fun.
In Glads & Lads, you create your own gladiator and develop them in a world inspired by classic browser RPGs. You earn gear, fight monsters, complete quests, and steadily grow stronger.

When you’re ready, you can challenge other players in ranked arena duels, take part in turn-based PvP, and, together with your guild, unlock multiplayer content.

The game blends RPG, strategy, and economy, from combat to player-to-player trading and an auction house to building your reputation in the world. It’s a long-term experience focused on growth, competition, and steady progression.
We want to launch only when the game is truly polished. We’re working on the core gameplay and aren’t announcing a specific release date yet. Once we’re confident about the timeline, we’ll share it publicly.
Glads & Lads brings back the feel of classic browser games, but in a modern and fair package. Instead of constant resets and “speed servers,” we focus on long-term development.

Our Premium Shop doesn’t grant unfair advantages, it’s there to support, not replace, the game.

We’re also adding features older titles often lacked: full player-to-player trading, an auction house, tactical PvP, turn-based duels, and expanded guild activities in the future.

In short: we blend nostalgia with modern design so every player, regardless of playstyle or budget, can genuinely shape their progress.
We're aiming to bring Glads & Lads to virtually every device, starting with Windows and macOS, plus a browser version. We also believe we shouldn't ignore mobile, so delivering a mobile app for iOS and Android is a top priority.
