Ragdoll games: floppy bodies, big falls

Ragdoll games are physics toys: a floppy body, a big drop and a score for every bone that breaks. Turbo Dismount and Happy Wheels made the format famous. Here are the best ones, the party versions you play with friends, and a prompt to launch your friend down a hill.

Classic ragdoll games

Turbo Dismount (Secret Exit, 2014). Put a crash-test dummy on a vehicle, aim it at something and watch the replay. On PC and phones.
Happy Wheels (Jim Bonacci, 2010). Ride wheelchairs and bikes through deadly obstacle courses made by players. Very gory, so not for young kids.
People Playground (mestiez, 2019). A 2D sandbox where you test machines and weapons on ragdolls. Violent and for older players.
Totally Accurate Battle Simulator (Landfall). Wobbly armies fight wobbly armies. Silly, not gory.

Ragdoll games to play with friends

Gang Beasts (Boneloaf). Floppy brawlers grab each other and throw each other out of the ring.
Human: Fall Flat (No Brakes Games, 2016). Puzzle levels with a wobbly hero you steer with both arms. Best in co-op, and a sequel, Human Fall Flat 2, has been announced.
Party Animals (Recreate Games, 2023). Fluffy animals fight with ragdoll physics. Cute and chaotic in a group.
PEAK (2025). A co-op climb where every slip sends someone tumbling, and the falls are half the fun.
