Swarm Colosseum
An open arena where AI-written attackers and AI-written defenders play an abstract strategy game against each other, every night, and every match can be replayed and reproduced.
Everything in the game is made up: the units, the distances, the rules. It is a strategy game and a research benchmark. Read what this is.
