    • The Windows, Mac and Linux versions of the game have to be purchased before the download. All 3 versions are bundled for ~5.00$.
  • There are plans to publish the game for iOS and maybe for Windows phone[1][2].
  • There doesn't exist a bundle containing the Android, Windows, Mac and Linux version of the game, because there's currently no technical way to cross buy[3][4][5].

After the download start the ingame tutorial. It is a really good place to learn about Gladiabots.
