Funny Ragdoll Games

If you like to play video games, you will have a wide variety of games to choose from. The most complex are the PC and the Play Station games. These games are very complex in our days and they take a lot of resources to build and to play. And they are also very expensive to buy. They usually take you a few days to finish them, and sometimes even more. But if you still want to play some games, and you don't wish to spend hundreds of dollars and many hours for that game, you can always choose the free online games. These are very simple to make and they are using the flash technology. They are also short and you will be able to finish them in a few minutes. Don't worry that they are too short, because there are thousands of them on the internet so you will always have something to play.

The topics of these games are very diversified, and there is a game for everyone. There are sport games, adventure games, shooting games, girls games, boys games, adult games and so many more. The characters of these games are always funny and interesting. Some of the characters are invented, but some are taken from the real life. For example you can find games with famous singers such as Madonna or Britney Spears, or games with actors and even with politicians (such as Tony Blair, George Bush or Barrack Obama). Among the most simple characters you will find the stick man (a man made out just by simple lines and a circle for the head), and also the ragdoll. The ragdoll is some kind of puppet which is very soft, very flexible and can bend and twist in all kinds of ways. It acts just like its made out of jelly or something like that.

To understand better how does this character behaves you can play the "Ragdoll physics 2". The game is really simple, all you have to do is watch the ragdoll falling, and perhaps just help her when it gets stuck. But to make the game funnier, the character is not just a simple doll, it is actually the figure of George W. Bush. It is clear that the person who made this game was not a big fan of the former president of the United States of America. :)

After understanding the concept of a ragdoll, you can play other games of this kind. You will find many of them and there even exists a site that contains only ragdoll games. This is: ragdollgame.info and it contains a few funny ragdoll games.

Now let's play some of them! The first one is called "Ragdoll cannon 2" and it is pretty simple. Your goal is to shoot the ragdoll guy from the cannon and hit the targe to go to the next level. There are 70 levels and the style changes at every 20 levels. There are some bad targets and only one is good. Also try to make as little shoots as possible, just like in the golf game. After completing a level you can have more fun by firing more of these guys, and just watch them tumble all over the place. The levels are getting more and more complicated so you won't get bored with this game!

Another game, that combines both the stick and ragdoll characters is the "Stick figure smash". This game is also very simple and funny. All you have to do is control the figure with the arrow keys, and smash it around the screen as hard as possible.

Let's move on to the next funny ragdoll game called the "Trials : Dynamite tumble". This is for both the ragdoll game fans and the motor sport fans. Your goal is to affect as much damage as possible for the bike driver. All the bumps and hits increase the damage counter. The longer the jumps with the bike, the more damage you will make. You can also bail out using the space key in places where you want to crash. You will also find dynamites that are automatically exploding when the driver is near. Try to explode all of them to get the maximum damage. You will have three runs to get the highest score possible. After completing one level you will move on to the next one. Good luck on hurting your driver! :)

Another sport game involving the ragdoll technology is the "Downhill snowboard". This game is really fun, you will have to go downhill with the snowboarder and do all kinds of tricks. He will easily bend and twist so you can do all kinds of crazy tricks. The more tricks you do the higher your score will be. You have different downhill tracks to choose from each of them has different angles and heights.

The next funny ragdoll game is the "Shackle-Man: City Raid". In this game you will have some action hero character, something similar to Spider Man. This guy's special power is that he has some long and very flexible shackles coming out of his hands, and your goal is to advance as much as possible across the levels. You will must click on any object and your guy will throw his shackles in that direction and grab on to that object. You will have to jump from one object to another and be careful not to lose your grip because you will fall and the game will be over.

You can even find a ragdoll volleyball game on the site, called exactly like that. Your goal is simple, you will have to be the first to reach the 10 points limit. You can make 3 touches of the ball at most, and after that the ball must be on the other side. When the number of touches is three, the lamp will turn red and when you score a point it will turn green. If the ball hits the button near you, the "bonebreaker" flies out of the trap.

You will also have to be careful of the spear from the middle of the field, and not fall in it. It is so different from a normal volleyball game, and it may seem scary. But some of you may enjoy playing it.
