Beetle Sumo

Beetle Sumo is a party game for 1–8 players, based on the Japanese festival game of Kabutomushi Sumo, often translated as Japanese rhinoceros beetle sumo. You play as battling beetles and try to knock your friends off the table in fast ring-out matches.

In the traditional game, children and hobbyists pit rhinoceros beetles, or kabutomushi, and stag beetles, or kuwagata, against each other in a small arena. The beetles lock horns and push, with the winner knocking the opponent out of the ring. In Beetle Sumo, the goal is to be the last beetle standing.
