Ragdoll Fighter

Mission briefing

Ragdoll Fighter is a fast, funny 2D physics fighting game where every punch, swing, and stumble is driven by ragdoll physics. Drag your fighter around the arena, build up momentum, and slam into your enemies with fists or weapons until their health hits zero — with satisfying slow-motion on every big hit. Battle through a campaign of hand-crafted levels, take on multiple foes at once, or test your survival skills in Endless Mode against never-ending waves. Earn coins from powerful hits and combos, then unlock a roster of wild characters — a robot, a ninja, a boxer, a spartan, a pirate, an alien, and more — each with its own attack, defense, and control stats. Collect daily rewards, chase 3-star level clears, and become the last ragdoll standing. Progression & extras: Unlock characters in the Character Select screen using coins earned in battle — each has different Attack / Defense / Complexity ratings. Earn coins from weapon hits, combos, daily login rewards, and optional reward videos. Daily rewards grow bigger the more days you play in a row. Options: toggle music and sound, and set your preferred control side. Features: Hilarious, unpredictable ragdoll physics combat Campaign levels with a 3-star rating system Endless survival mode with escalating difficulty 8 unlockable fighters, each with unique stats and weapons Intuitive one-finger drag controls — easy to learn, tricky to master Satisfying slow-motion impacts and combo rewards Plays great in portrait on desktop and mobile browsers Win the fight: Level mode: Defeat every opponent to clear the level. Finish fast and keep your health high to earn up to 3 stars. Clear levels to unlock the next ones. Endless mode: Survive as long as you can — each kill restores a little health and enemies keep getting tougher. Your score is your kill count. Don't give up: If you fall, you can watch a short video to revive and jump right back into the fight (once per run). Manage your health: Keep an eye on the HP bar. When it empties, the round is over.

Field manual

Move & attack: Touch and drag anywhere on the screen to steer your ragdoll. Drag toward an enemy to fling your body and weapon into them — the faster and harder you swing, the more damage you deal. Use weapons: Your fighter automatically favors the weapon nearest to your drag direction. Land weapon hits and headshots for the biggest damage (and extra coins). Chain combos: Hit the same enemy repeatedly to rack up combos for bonus coins. Big hits briefly slow time so you can line up the next strike.

Launch orders: press Launch mission above and the game loads on this page itself — nothing downloads and no form stands between you and the first move. It is designed for a flexible screen and takes its orders from mouse, keyboard or touch, depending on the mission. It adapts to both upright and wide screens, so phones, tablets and desktops all frame it sensibly. If it offers a fullscreen control, use it — a fight this size deserves the whole screen.

Field notes for fighting operations

• Blocking is a move, not a pause. Most fighting games reward the player who defends deliberately — the opening you need usually appears while you are not pressing anything.
• Learn one short combo properly instead of five long ones badly. A reliable three-hit string you can land under pressure out-damages a spectacular sequence you drop twice a round.
• Watch the feet, not the health bar. Fighters telegraph through their stance and spacing; the bar only tells you how the last exchange went, not how the next one starts.
