This fighting game (if you can even call it that) isn't like anything we've tried before but still manages to be fun and challenging. Use the arrow keys to move your ragdoll stick figure around the screen to position yourself to get the best attack combos on your opponent. At first, the game seems as if it gives you little control, but with some practice, you'll be able to pull off some fancy manuevers, nailing your opponent for combos. The game's 2D graphics and simple hitting sounds accompany the fight, and later levels produce more opponents to do battle with. A high-energy techno soundtrack adds to the mood. The demo only allows for three levels of play, but you'll be able to get a good idea of the flow of the game by the time you're finished. At the low price of $9.95, it's pretty easy to recommend this game, and it's definitely worth checking out because of its unique and surprisingly addictive gameplay.

  Version: Ragdoll Masters 3.1

  "Deceptively easy, compulsively hard"

  by bbrratt on May 20, 2007

  Pros: Ragdoll is simply to play: start the game and use the arrow keys to move your doll around. But, wait, the doll doesn't move in tune with the keys. It is, after all, a rag doll. And, you have an opponent--a two player game, or single player. You and your opponent are bouncing around in a grid area, running into each other. The trick is to get your doll to float into the other in just the right way to score a "hit." A little splash of blood confirms successful hits, and eventually you or your opponent get enough points to win. It's just the kind of game I like, slow and low stress. No explosions or space aliens or armies to keep track of. Just a little late night enjoyment that you just can't seem to stop playiing.

  "Weird"

  by brandysnapp on May 16, 2007

  Pros: I like the bloodshed and general mayhem. Generally, very silly.

  Cons: I don't know where or when the scoring kicks in or is visible. Generally, very silly.
