Instead, the joy is in watching the blocky fighters trip over themselves, struggle to walk, and kick around like turtles on their backs when they fall over.Įven after the match is over, you can watch the wrestlers pathetically attempt to get back up and bow to each other. Similar to games like Surgeon Simulator and Goat Simulator, this game is not intended to be realistic in any way. However, controls really don’t matter all that much since the fighters can barely stand up on their own without being pushed. Additionally, there are two attack buttons, one-handed push and two-handed push. There are four movement arrows, forward, squat, rotate left, and rotate right. Since the boxy characters are about as nimble as a drunken mule, it won’t take much to knock your opponent down, or get knocked down yourself. When both players are ready, the match will start. Press the down arrow to show you are ready. Just like in a real Sumo match, players start by placing their hands on the ground.

What is left is a pretty hilarious ragdoll simulation that will give you the giggles for the rest of the day… Sumotori Dreams takes all the tradition and reverence out of Sumo wrestling. It shows off a wrestler’s strength and dexterity against his opponent. The goal is to push your rival out of the ring, or force him to touch the ground with something other than his feet. Sumo wrestling dates back hundreds of years and is a revered tradition in Japanese culture.
