What is Trials of Argolis?
Trials of Argolis is a first-person melee boss-rush game set in an Ancient Greece-inspired world with fantasy elements.
Players move through arenas and face 15 distinct bosses, including one secret encounter. Bosses can usually be tackled in any order, and defeating them awards Trial-Medals for improving physical attributes. The game offers six difficulty settings, from forgiving play to a permanent-death mode.
