About the game
What you do in a play session
Sumo Slam! turns your table into an action-packed dojo! The goal? Use your flicking skills to knock opponents over or push them out of the ring, just like a real sumo tournament. Each player controls an adorable (but determined) wrestler, taking turns rolling, spinning, and giving strategic taps to score points. Whoever stays longest in the ring or gains advantageous positions wins. It's fast, fun, and perfect for fans of dexterity games with a dash of friendly competition. Plays 2-8 people in just 15 minutes—no language dependence, just skill and a bit of luck!
