Gameplay

The game revolves around 1vs1 duels between doll-like minimalistic characters against either CPU or other players via the internet. Toribash is notable for its unique mix of fighting game and turn-based strategy based on ragdoll physics.
Instead of commanding character to perform certain attacks or special moves, the players manipulate various joints on the character’s model. It includes relaxing, holding, contracting and extending different parts of the doll’s body. After pressing spacebar, the model starts moving according to the player’s command for several frames and then the next turn begins. The goal of each match is either to gain more points than your opponent or to knock them outside the ring. Players earn points by successfully performing different punches, kicks, grabs and other moves.
Toribash multiplayer offers many different game modes. They vary depending on how many frames one turn takes, the distance between characters or specific aspects of in-game physics. There are also many player-made modifications to the game that change the dolls’ type, the way they move or add additional objects to the environment.
