Sumo Pucks is a fast, funny two-player game for one screen. Two round sumo wrestlers stand on a floating ice floe that melts and shrinks as the round goes on. Each player has just one button. Hold it to charge up a dash, release it to shoot off in the direction your arrow is pointing, and shove your rival off the ice and into the water. The arrow keeps spinning, so timing is everything. Every round has a different surface: slippery ice, heavy slush, a fast-melting floe or a tiny floe with no room to hide. The first player to win 3 rounds is the champion. No second player around? Challenge the computer on easy, normal or hard.
How to play Sumo Pucks
- Your puck has an arrow that keeps spinning around it.
- Hold your button to charge a dash. While you charge, the arrow turns more slowly so you can line up your shot.
- Release the button to dash in the direction the arrow points. A longer charge means a harder dash.
- Knock the other puck off the ice and into the water to win the round. Watch out: a very hard dash can carry you off the edge too.
- The floe melts and shrinks as the round goes on. First to win 3 rounds wins the match.
Tips and strategy
- A full charge is not always best. On normal ice a medium charge is enough to reach your rival.
- Wait for the arrow to point at your rival before you release. While charging it turns slowly, so you can fine-tune the aim.
- Stay away from the edge. Let your rival come to you and use their dash against them.
- On slippery ice every push goes much further, so use short, careful dashes. On slush you need a longer charge.
- When the floe gets small, a single good hit usually ends the round.
