About Sumo Bumpers

Sumo Bumpers is a top-down sumo party game for round, wobbly wrestlers. Charge to barge someone out of the ring, brace to stand your ground, and belly-flop to send a crowd flying. The ring can shrink as the bout goes on, and the last one in wins.

Wrestle everyone for themselves, or 2v2 and 4v4, up to 8 in a ring, on clay, ice or a trampoline. Power-ups add Grow, which makes you bigger and heavier, Chilli, which makes you quicker, and Thunder, a bigger belly-flop. With more of you, everyone bumps at once in rings of up to 8. A Grand Basho runs 3, 5 or 7 bouts, and the longer you stay in the ring, the more you score.
