Wrestling Game

Wrestling Game is a cartoon pro-style wrestling match between dinosaurs in a ring with ropes and turnbuckles. Lock up with a timing tap, then pick your move: a suplex, a body slam, an arm drag or an Irish whip into the ropes. Climb the corner for a flying splash, then pin your rival for the 1-2-3. You can play this wrestling game online free in your browser with no download, on a computer or a phone.

How to play

Win a one-fall match by pinning your rival for a three-count, or by count-out if they stay outside the ring for a 10-count.

• Lock up: walk up to your rival and press Grab. Two circles slide toward each other above the wrestlers. Tap Grab (or tap the ring on a touch screen) when they overlap. The better-timed tap wins.
• Pick a move: win the lock-up and you get a moment to choose. Up + Grab is a suplex that throws your rival over your head, Down + Grab is a body slam, Grab alone is an arm drag, and Strike is a quick head bonk. On touch, tap a move button in the ring.
• Irish whip: press Run after a lock-up win to send your rival into the ropes. As they bounce back, press Strike for a dropkick or Grab for a bounce-back slam. If you do nothing, they run you over.
• Strikes and running: Strike up close is a chop that stuns for a moment. Press Run on your own to bounce off the ropes and shoulder-tackle a standing rival.
• Go to the top: stand near a corner and press Up to climb the turnbuckle, then press Grab or Strike to dive. Land on a downed rival for a flying splash or on a standing one for a crossbody. Miss and you crash to the mat.

Energy, stamina and momentum

The three bars at the top of the ring track each wrestler. Energy drops as you take moves, and the lower it is, the longer you stay down and the harder it is to kick out of a pin. Stamina pays for your moves and refills when you rest. A suplex costs the most, and if you try one while you are too tired, it fails and your rival slips free. Momentum fills every time you land a move. When the bar is full and flashing, press Special next to your rival for your signature move.

Every wrestler has a goofy signature, from the Tail Whip to the Egg Roll, and they differ a little in power and speed.

Pins and count-outs

Press Down next to a rival who is on the mat to start a pin, and the referee slides in to count. The pinned wrestler mashes any action button, or taps the screen, to fill a kick-out bar. If the bar is past the line when the referee reaches 1 or 2, they kick out. The more energy they have, the easier that is. The wrestler doing the pin can mash too, to hold the pin down.

A slam or arm drag close to the ropes can throw a wrestler right out of the ring. Once they are outside, the count starts. Walk to the apron and press Up to climb back in before it reaches 10.

Modes

• Title Tour: eight matches against eight original dino wrestlers, starting on Easy and finishing on Hard against Mega Momma. Beat them all to win the Dino Slam belt. Your tour progress and titles are saved in your browser.
• Exhibition: pick your wrestler, your rival and an Easy, Normal or Hard CPU.
• 2 Players: two friends on one keyboard. P1 uses A D W S with F G H R, and P2 uses the arrow keys with J K L U.

Tips

• Watch the circles, not the wrestlers. The lock-up is all timing, and a well-timed tap beats a fast one.
• Wear them down before you pin. Pinning a fresh rival just gets you a kick-out. Land a few slams and a splash first.
• Use the ropes. Slam a rival near the ropes to throw them outside.
