### 5/5 — 10 star game

*2026-09-24*

Every grappling guys dream game we all been waiting on something like this my freinds I showed it to loved it as well.  can’t wait to see what future holds for this game

### 5/5 — My whole BJJ school is addicted to this game!

*2026-09-22*

One of my members brought up they saw an ad for this game on instagram. After downloading none of us can put it down! A lot of thought has went into the detail and BJJ practitioners will appreciate it. We look forward to more people joining the community for online play and further updates to the game. The creator is very friendly and will respond to your messages and criticism! It is money well spent as I've played this more so far than any 70 dollar console game I've purchased in the past couple years. Definitely a throwback to the old pokemon days

### 5/5 — Amazing game

*2026-09-21*

I just bought Wolverine and decided to play this game instead that’s how much hype there was and let me tell you it’s held up for me it’s as accurate as a video game can be and still gets that rpg vibe

### 5/5 — Sick Game

### 5/5 — My character has better bjj than me!

*2026-09-21*

Such a fun game! The roll battle system is super fun. Can’t wait to see how this game grows and evolves over time.

### 5/5 — The best jiu-jitsu game ever

*2026-09-20*

As someone who loves Jiu-Jitsu, I’m really enjoying Submission Saga! It’s awesome to finally have a mobile game focused specifically on Jiu-Jitsu. The submissions, positions, and overall gameplay make it really fun and addictive.

You can tell the developers put a lot of thought into creating a game for people who actually enjoy the art of Jiu-Jitsu. It’s different from the usual fighting games and definitely worth trying if you’re a BJJ fan.

OSS!

### 5/5 — Great game

*2026-09-20*

Usually I don’t really play mobile games as much, but man is this game fun! Brought me back to when I used to play pokemon on my gameboy color when I was in elementary school. Can’t wait to see what types of updates will roll out. Keep up the great work there!

### 5/5 — Sensational

Great game play, very strategic and so much fun.  Absolutely worth it.

### 5/5 — AWESOME GAME!

*2026-09-19*

I love this! Old school rpg mechanics and real world jiu jitsu. Surprisingly good for an IOS game. Battle system and leveling is fun and the overall gameplay is super creative and fun. Can’t wait for more like this!

### 5/5 — Incredible

*2026-09-19*

Truly an amazing game. The progression feels incredibly satisfying. You can really tell the creator not only has an appreciation for video games, but a genuine understanding and love for the sport of jiu-jitsu. Very excited to see where it goes!!

### 5/5 — Great game

*2026-09-18*

I have never had so much fun playing a mobile game
I am a jiu jitsu competitor and a Pokemon fan and this game is a blast.
Great mechanics and layout
Great development of your character throughout the game and as you upgrade your character
I have no critiques it’s a blast

### 5/5 — Submission saga

*2026-09-18*

Extremely fun and very cool all the small details that were put into the game really shows how much love was put into it

### 5/5 — Wonderful

*2026-09-18*

A near perfect rendition of a pokemon style BJJ game. If you are into both this is a must play. Can’t wait to see what comes and potentially even a Gi version.

### 5/5 — Pokémon/Stardew Valley for BJJ

*2026-09-18*

It feels like a mixture of Pokémon and Stardew valley  but for people who like BJJ. I think it’s great and am enjoying it a lot so far. You probably have to train BJJ to really appreciate it fully. Thank you! It’s a lot of fun

### 5/5 — Extremely addicting

*2026-09-18*

This game is insanely fun, even if you aren’t a jiu jitsu fan. For anyone that has played Pokemon, it’s a very similar feel. The progression is very balanced, and the game is tough at times for those who like the challenge

### 5/5 — Beautiful

*2026-09-18*

Beautiful game, although I think there is a bug into the Ashi Academy where after defeating Marco, it doesn’t unlock the other fighters

### 4/5 — Arm bars r broken

*2026-09-29*

I was able to max out arm bars as a white belt and just pull guard then arm bar up to brown belts as a white belt 
The game is awesome and really has that authentic Pokémon feel, idk how the developer would be able to fix this just thaught I’d give my Thaughts

### 5/5 — Extremely well done!!

*2026-10-05*

Very impressive how well the combat flows! Pretty realistic how certain opponents manage to hit a certain move and you somehow never can defend it lol

I’d love to see some more leg entanglements! Let’s get an aoki lock and a Mikey lock next! Maybe a knee bar!

### 5/5 — Can't wait for more updates

*2026-10-05*

This game is 🔥🔥🔥

### 5/5 — Top tier game

*2026-10-04*

For the longest time I’ve been looking for a game to play on my phone to pass the time that was somewhat related to grappling. Seen an ad for this game on ig and decided to give it a try. The first night I played until 5am 🤣. To the devs, I hope your pillow is forever cold on both sides 🫶🏽

### 5/5 — Millionaire in two seconds

*2026-10-04*

I feel like the money system is pretty cool, I like the fact that I can buy the açaí stand and laundromat to embrace my inner greed. I also am excited to get the abandoned shack. Also stealing money is fun, just like Pokémon: I loved playing Pokémon.

### 5/5 — Great Grappling Game

*2026-10-01*

if you in any way shape or form love mma/bjj grappling and wrestling , you'll love this game

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2026-09-27*

### 5/5 — Beautiful Game

*2026-09-26*

The whole gym is addicted to this game!  So much fun playing, and I’m sure there is going to be additional content coming!

### 5/5 — Pokémon + BJJ

*2026-09-26*

As a BJJ practitioner and a Pokémon lover this game was perfect, even if I wasn’t a Pokémon enjoyer or bjj practitioner it still would be a great game, the mechanics are great the art is really nice with a lot of references, the story even though simple is engaging, exploring the map is also very fun with a lot of secrets, I could stay here for hours talking amazing game I’m hoping for the new GI mode or game! OSS


Como um praticante de jiu-jítsu e fã de Pokémon esse jogo caiu como uma luva . Tem uma gameplay muito legal e envolvente principalmente para quem gosta de luta agarrada e conhece os movimentos, a arte e o mapa do jogo são muito bonitos cheios de referências, é sem dúvida um prato cheio para fãs de Pokémon ou praticantes de artes marciais ou até mesmo só se você quiser um jogo legal para jogar !

### 5/5 — Chef’s Kiss 👌

*2026-09-25*

### 5/5 — Blue Belt Blues No More

*2026-09-24*

I’ve been training jiu-jitsu for years, so I downloaded Submission Saga mostly because I was curious how well BJJ would actually translate into a game. I’m genuinely impressed.

I was stuck at blue belt for way too long in the game, which honestly felt a little too realistic 😂. I ended up reaching out on Instagram with a few suggestions, and we actually talked through them. That was probably one of my favorite parts of the whole experience. It’s really cool knowing there’s an actual person behind the game who is listening to feedback and cares about making it better.

The game itself has that nostalgic old-school Pokémon/RPG feel, but everything is built around jiu-jitsu. The positions, moves, belt progression, tournaments, training, and little inside jokes make it obvious it was made by someone who actually understands the sport.

There’s also more to do than just roll. You get to explore, build your character, unlock techniques, and basically live out a ridiculous little jiu-jitsu career.

It’s fun, weirdly addictive, and clearly made with a lot of love for the BJJ community. I’m excited to see how it keeps growing.

Definitely worth the $10 if you train jiu-jitsu, especially if you grew up playing Pokémon or old-school RPGs.
