Sumotori game review

Sumotori is a casual ragdoll fighting game, and it is one of the best small fighting games I have ever played! You play as a sumo-wrestler ragdoll and have to fight other ragdolls. The game starts with you and your opponent(s) touching your hands to the floor like in real sumo-wrestling, and off you go to punch the opponent to the ground. The loser is the first one to hit the ground, but you can still play the same game as long as you want. The special and best thing about this game is how the "dolls" move, i'ts like trying to control a drunk, blind and crazy man with loose limbs and springs on his feet. The juddering wrestlers move so unsteadily that even the slightest jerk is enough to send them into uncontrollable death spins. You’re basically your own worst enemy – one missed push and you’ve condemned your poor robotic wrestler to smacking his face into the ground, tangling his limbs up with the other fighters, having his adversaries pile on top of him and technically ending the match. But that’s when the fun begins.

A very common situation.

It is for 1-2 players but if you add computers you can play up to 4 at a time. You only have two attacks which are push, and push with one hand. And you move with the arrows, while the down arrow is jump, so no walking backwards. You can choose between lots of arenas and mods, for example the seesaw arena from the picture above, and mods like football, labyrinths, slides and tons more made by players, or you can build one yourself. I recommend this game to everyone, you will laugh your ass off untill your stomach aces. 

You can download the demo for free or buy it for only 4.50 USD here.
