Will the men in black beat the men in nappies?

To be honest, any 'Which is best: x or y?' contest is pointless if you don't nail down the conditions.

Is a shark faster than a gazelle? It depends if they're racing on land or in the sea. Could Lennox Lewis outfight The Undertaker? Only if tombstones are disallowed. Would an otter beat a trampoline at Scrabble? Actually, that last one's easy – 14 points to five says the trampoline would walk it.

But you get our point.

However, Kiloo's new mobile game promises to settle once and for all whether ninjas are better than sumo wrestlers. How? Via the medium of… a one-thumb action-puzzle game.

Ninja vs Sumo, developed by Itch Design, features cutesy graphics, lets you take the side of the ninjas or the sumos, and offers plenty of power-ups to give your team the advantage.

We're excitedly assuming this is just the first of many games, though. Pirates vs Zombies anyone?
