Gladiator 1984 — About this game
Gladiator 1984 races a horse rider toward the goal while rivals try to force him into obstacles. Whipping the horse increases speed, but the quicker approach leaves less time to jump or steer around danger. The next stage changes to a chariot, where thrown projectiles add another way to handle competing riders. Progress depends on choosing room for the next obstacle as well as keeping ahead of the rivals.
