Latest patch : S&S 3 can now save up to 10 gladiators!

Good morning gladiators!

One of the big complaints about the Classic Collection was that in S&S 3, you could only save one gladiator. In the old Fizzy versions, you could save up to ten, so understandably a lot of people were confused and annoyed about the restrictions on the new one.

Long story short, technical issues with S&S 3 had kept me from being able to save more than one gladiator in the game, but I've completely re-written the save game system using the same ancient code as the old game.

After installing this patch, you'll be able to save up to 10 gladiators. For those who already have a saved gladiator in S&S 3, I am *fairly* confident this will automatically convert to the new save game system, but I can't guarantee it. My huge apologies if your character in S&S 3 is lost after this update, but the trade-off for the multiple saves should hopefully help.

Other small fixes:

  • In S&S IV, I hopefully have a fix for the 'undefined' gladiators / closed arena tiles in the game. Let me know if this still keeps happening for you!
  • In S&S 3, the Juggernaut skill now properly shows your height and weight increasing on your character sheet.

Many thanks to everyone who has played the game! As always, I'll keep patching things as I find solutions ( though sometimes it can be really tricky as some of these bugs are a decade old or more!)

Cheers, Oliver Joyce

Major update28 Jun 2026More new fan mods added to the Classic Collection!Greetings mighty gladiators! Its hard to believe ( and kind of cool to think ) Swords and Sandals is now over 20 years old! Truly they say time flies and it does feel like an eternity since I first coded up the little cartoon gladiators who would enter the arena back in Swords and Sandals I. What's even cooler, in my opinion, is that the S&S series has some of the most awesome dedicated fans a…Major update26 Apr 2025Swords and Sandals III is getting a remaster!Greetings, mighty gladiators! By far one of the S&S questions I am asked most is "When are you going to do a remake of Swords and Sandals III?" (The other question I always get asked is "What's up with the S&S 2 comma glitch, was that on purpose?" - nope, that was just the work of shoddy programming!) I'm thrilled to at last be able to announce a Swords and Sandals III remaster is in the works…Major update24 Jul 2024Fan Mods arrive in the Classic Collection!Greetings gladiators, and welcome to version 1.5 of the Swords and Sandals Classic Collection !
