Brute force in a massive fighter or fighting tactics in a slender body? Which one is most likely to win a combat? The Ninja vs. Sumo mobile game puts these two strategies against each other in order to settle on the one deserving most the winning title.

Itch Design has developed the Ninja vs. Sumo mobile game and Kiloo has brought its contribution to the publishing side. The result is an appealing and highly addictive puzzle game, as this genre usually proves to be.

The characters are highly amusing and the cartoon-like graphics surely adds to the game's magic. The classic game format receives an upgrade with a fast flowing game puzzle, which adds a large amount of diversity to the gameplay.

"With a fan site already in place, together with this debut title and plans to create many more characters, it is our aim to establish the PocketDuel brand in the gaming industry", declared Avinash Rawoo, co-founder of Itch Design. "As for this title, it is a great 'one thumb game' ideal for those commutes in and out of work/school that will get you jumping up and down in sheer joy or panic quicker than you can say "Ta Bo Onara!".

Ninja vs. Sumo has a new type of Power-Up Management System (PUMS). This removes the need for any in-game menus and maintains continuous action and an uninterrupted challenge. The player has the chance of choosing whether to fight in the way of "Ninja Magic" or "Sumo Slammin". Both options have their advantages and drawbacks, although the ninja will naturally manage to score more wins than losses.

Ninja vs. Sumo will be available from now on for handsets coming from all the major operators. It can be found in English, French, German, Dutch and will soon be released in Spanish and Italian too.
