### 5/5 — Please keep it open

*2024-03-31*

I will miss this game. I now have a lil void in my life. It’s like a  rpg wrestling simulator with some tactical/strategical elements. It was a one of a kind game. One of my favorites. Beautiful game with a fresh formula. Kinda ruined my day realizing it had been cancelled

### 4/5 — The game isn’t in English anymore):

*2024-02-08*

I just redownloaded the app and the game is no longer in English:/

### 2/5 — 是好游戏

*2023-08-08*

但是没中文

### 2/5 — Kinda Dull

*2023-07-31*

This gets really boring pretty quickly. Mostly training wrestlers for matches that autoplay. You don’t really do anything during matches except watch so I got pretty tired of this after a few hours.

### 5/5 — Great Concept

*2022-08-26, version 2.0.0*

I thought that this game was going to be nothing special.  Turns out I was wrong!!!  And I’m glad I was!  I love seeing the video accompanying the matches, entrances, the goals needing to be met, and the difficulty in putting together a unit.  It has me coming back and playing quite often.  And I love the new SS Dojo feature!  My only complaint, isn’t really a complaint.  I’m hoping to see more wrestlers added to the current roster.  Like Jeff Cobb, or Arron Henare.  Even Taka or the Murderhawk Monster!  And Maybe a fully playable G1 Climax tournament.

Just some ideas! ;) Love the game!  Keep up the great work!

### 2/5 — Downloading

*2022-07-07, version 1.2.0*

Just won’t download, I’ve waited a long time for the game to start and it never does, it backtracks and starts over. Very frustrating and I hope the fix it soon!

### 2/5 — Stopped Loading

*2022-07-01, version 1.1.0*

This game appears to use a heavy amount of data and often needs to download even more data. It’s a fun game but it will no longer load past the NJPW Lion Mark logo.

### 5/5 — A Throwback

*2022-06-26, version 1.1.0*

This game is a throwback to the old VCR style games from the 80s like the WWF WrestleMania and NFL Football board games while blending in the mechanics of an RPG level up and training system. Fun experience and a great way to expose the world to the current stars of NJPW.

### 3/5 — Data

*2022-06-24, version 1.1.0*

Every time I open the game it forces me to download more data. Recently it stopped asking me to do this, and now it won’t even open. Other than that the game is decently fun. Feels good when you train a wrestler and they actually win.

### 4/5 — Loved it but…

*2022-06-10, version 1.0.10*

I loved it but at the NJPW logo it just freezes and it stopped taking me to the menu
