Mark Out! The Wrestling Card Game
I love this game and i see the potential
Especially combining card is really fun and i want to be able to combine two combined cards with eachother and just go crazy with it. I like all the references to other companies the naming of moves are great like the one horn demon. And praise no microtransactions
But and this is something that needs to be sorted you can basically take about 2 moves have a 2 energy lead, reverse literally everything and then just win from either the opponent not having any cards left or they keep hurting them selves and then you use one of your cards to put them out of their misery.

If you’ve played RAW Deal, With Authority or Synamic D this is a game you want to check out.
It’s still in Early Access, but the foundations are already here for something awesome . A wrestling collectable card game, much like the games mentioned above where you build your best desk of cards to challenge the AI or PVP for EXP to level up and VC (No micro-transactions).
VC earnt from winning matches is then spent on opening packs of cards to acquire new moves to add to your collection.
There is also a create a wrestler option where you can watch your CAW perform the cards moves during gameplay and a create a card and combine option, where you can cook up any move you wish.

Pro Wrestling X
(Edit - Review has been edited on the 23rd of April 2016 to re-look at the current version (0.94) on that day and a new updated video for that version has been added at the end of my review).
If you believe in wrestling games out side of WWE or even more wrestling games in general then this project is worth buying and sitting on until it growths into it’s very small boots, that might take a while since currently we can do a match but not the most fun one ever but it is heading in the right direction.

Hectic and chaotic; wishing there were a few more game modes though for increased viewer participation! BUT it’s on the right path for sure :)

Fire Pro Wrestling World
I’ll start by saying that I’ve been playing Fire Pro World for around three years now. I have all the DLC, I’ve made hundreds of edits, produced a series of YouTube videos (cheap plug: Power Pro Wrestling and Fire Promoter Complete), and at the time of this writing I’ve logged 10,047.4 hours in the game. That’s not a typo. Ten thousand hours. Over ten thousand hours. And I am still extremely excited to boot the game up every single time. All without using mods whatsoever.
Fire Pro World is not a perfect game. One could argue that the controls are too esoteric for casual players, that the lack of gimmick matches diminishes its quality to American fans, you could even say that the necessity of having all the DLC to get the most out of the game is to its detriment. My girlfriend says that it looks like colorful sausages fighting which I don’t think is fair, but which echoes a common criticism of the game’s graphics.

Fire Pro Wrestling World is the most incredible wrestling sandbox you’ll ever see. With an unlimited number of wrestlers and just about anyone who’s ever stepped into the squared circle available on the Workshop, you can recreate historical matchups, try to emulate modern wrestling, and set up impossible dream matches spanning multiple eras. You’re able to do the same with boxing and MMA, and on top of all that, throw in original creations, pop culture icons, and whatever else your imagination can come with.

Pro Wrestling Sim
UPDATED REVIEW AFTER 100+ HOURS:
My first review was after 40+ hours. I recommended the game to anyone who finds TEW too complicated, but also stating that this game was in desperate need of a pre-booker, RNG, the ability to have more freedom to create match-types, gimmicks, etc. Also asking for match history, etc.
–-
Now after 60 more hours of playing and very regular updates by the developer (respect for that!), I can still say that I recommend this game to anyone who likes booking wrestling shows, without the complexity of TEW holding them back.

Bro this is the first kind of “manager” game I’ve ever played and hooooooly its great. Super easy to learn, super easy to read the UI. And super easy to book a whole show. I bought this trying to scratch that itch of having a GM mode in WWE 2k.
This game is just a little more in depth. Gives show ratings, gives crowd reaction to matches, gives 0-5 star match rating, and gives amount of money made from each show. Whats great about it is getting so much feedback that I think a lot of people have been wanting from WWE 2k games and their Universe mode. Game also has Injuries, Superstars asking for pushes or to work with someone, hundreds of people to contract for different jobs like referee, announcer, staff, wrestler, and ever some that can do all of these things.

Tournament Ark
(tl;dr version: Check back in when Early Access is over.)
This game has a sizable amount of polish issues- from areas of the game which should allow you to check your deck, but don’t, to a sometimes rough interface, to the bizarre fact that there’s never a “back” button in areas where it’d be expected, to the fact that there isn’t an input delay set after a match end (meaning you might accidentally click on a post-match event selection while trying to click through the end of the match). The game also has some longevity issues that’d be easily remedied with just a bit more late-game gameplay customization options, as well as some significant balance issues.

I’ve been playing this game since i found it in Itch.io and all i can say is that it’s extremely adictive and there’s so many different options that each run is completly different and unique. The game itself is a Slay the spire-like game with easy to learn but hard to master mechanics. What makes the game so enjoyable is the combination of both different backstories and archetypes which give a rather diverse gameplay and strategies. If you like cardbased roguelikes like Slay the Spire you’re gonna love this game

Double Turn
You can be knocked out of your own combo, characters lack much difference between each other, and AI is easily exploited. It’s not a very fun game. The potential is there and its core loop is interesting but there is too little here for it to be recommended as is.

Nice idea and design, poor realization
The game can’t be considered as a finished project even if one overlooks the lack of content, because some fundamental features don’t work:
[olist]
- AI in Practice mode doesn’t work: an NPC just stands still and meekly gets player’s hits. If it’s supposed to be so, then the developer should have added several options to adjust the NPC behavior like make it always blocking or jumping or performing a sequence of movements.* A player’s profile disappears after closing the game, that leads to disappearing of a gamepad custom configuration also. Moreover, the game doesn’t allow me to create a profile with the same name again although I don’t see it and can’t choose it.

Circle of Sumo: Online Rumble!
In short it’s really fun!
The controls are simple yet complex at the same time due to many strategies you can apply against your opponent/opponents. It reminds me a little bit of Mound and Blade multiplayer in that sense.
The game also has a simple yet imersing ranking system which adds to a competitive aspect to the game.
Also as a sidenote developers seem like really nice people from what I’ve seen on their discord.

A super-fun multiplayer game, easy to learn but more tactical than it seems at a first glance. E.g. positioning is crucial (especially in FFA) and sometimes you can get away with a win even not touching anyone :D
You know a multiplayer game is good when you can see different players employing different tactics in order to be the last wrestler standing.
BY ALL MEANS at least try the free version: even that ensures hours of fun!
Netcode looked solid to me. Animations are very good and the action is always clear to follow (albeith a bit chaotic in FFA).
