Roll. Submit. Climb the ranks.
You start as a white belt nobody. By the end you can be a world championship black belt.
Submission Saga is a top-down pixel-art RPG that mashes Pokémon-style exploration with deep, turn-based Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Train at the gym. Level up eight BJJ stats. Unlock new techniques as you climb the belts. Time the submission gauge for that perfect lock-in and outthink six fighting archetypes that each have their own tells. Every fight is simultaneous-resolution chess scored by real BJJ points.
Outside the gym there's a whole world to work. Enter tournaments and climb the World Championship arena. Queue into ranked online matches against real players. Forage rare mushrooms in the forest, fish quiet ponds, and brawl street thugs in the alleys. Build your own signature submissions with the Custom Move Creator.
And yes, the supplement shelf is fully stocked. Creatine, pre-workout, and a few bottles with the labels scratched off.
