“i mean its decent but the playstyle of the game aint for me as its more complicated than half swords and overall its not really my type of sword playing game but the game is still good id still give it about a 6/10, its…”
“this game isnt a half sword copy it was made first and fun but needs more smooth joint physics but overall VERY GOOD”
“I don't know how this game got in library but its been one of the most fun mindless time killers I've played, i have yet to try the multiplayer mode because i do not have friends :(”
10 of the 98 reviews raise this.
“Unless you have friends to play with this game is not worth even a free price tag. The Campaign absolutely sucks and allows for zero additions to its crappy design. If you are thinking of playing solo I would recommend…”
“sooooo goood i love dismembering my friends”
“This is a great game which I play with my friends often (Local) and is an extremely fun game even in the campaign mode. There are tons of weapons (I didn't know what most of them were) so lots of different options.”

“Great game! This is where boys playing Half Sword turn into men. Almost infinitely more replyable compared to other gladitor combat games. 8/10, the price should be 10$ imo for this game but you can always just wait for…”
“I have played many physics fighters - Spiderheck, Gangbeasts, Stick Fight etc Gladio Mori takes a little while for everything to "Click", Using Physics to your advantage to extend swings, Movement, Holding Certain…”
“This game has been my hyperfixation for several months now, if you want a TLDR: it has been very much worth the price of the game, especially as someone who likes to make creative use of physics. There are some things…”

“The game is fun, the rest of everything about it is complete trash. The physics are jank, the "vitals" they talk about is just anything that isnt your limbs makes you die to scratches. Bleeds go to death no matter where…”
“This game is very bad as of right now. you die insanely easily because this game acts as if you have no bones so even the smallest tap can kill you from lung damage, aorta damage or brain damage. the game is also very…”
“this game sucks so much wdym i cut off someones leg and they scratch me and i lose”

“I have played Gladio Mori for a bit now and i feel that it at times can be an extremely fun game especially when all players agree to certain limitations and rules, this however does not push me to recommend the game…”
“seriously don't waste your time with this game its overpriced clunky garbage that fools you into thinking of it as a fighting game i dont think i've been more mad at a game like this knowing that you get even a scratch…”

“what half sword shouldve been, its a bit barren at the moment but it seems promising, my only issue is that online play requires a friend because finding a good lobby that doesnt kick you because they forgot to set…”
“games pretty fun just wish there were consistent ways to play with random people and hope that blunt weapons get a re-work because they dont do as much damage as they should when fighting in slow speeds where as when…”

— a player, Steam review · 1 hrs played“honestly, the game is good. good blood. good slicing/dismemberment. but i just cant get around the 15 dollar price tag. its a tad bit to much for what u get in return. if the game was $8-10 i would be more satsified. but its not. thats all.”
