  • Summary: Imagine having a Kung Fu Fight with string puppets, except you don't have to worry about getting the strings tangled up, and you don't have to have a kung fu fight. You control the characters on screen with the mouse – there are no pre-scripted animations in the game – it's all up to you – t – to walk, you have to literally pick up one foot, then place it in front of the other. Sounds tricky maybe, but it doesn't take long before you're spinning through the air like a Russian gymnast. This means you get to create your own style, and can act out whatever you feel like, and of course, if you really feel like it, you can have a fight. It's about Chi power. [Mark Healey] Expand

  1. Even though this game is an indie effort, the art and sound production are professional-quality. [Jan 2006, p.57]
  2. Hell, it's fun. But for a really short time.
  3. Pretty funky and fun - but only for a short while. [Christmas 2005, p.96]
  4. Rag Doll Kung Fu is fun. It's a laugh. And isn't that what gaming is all about? Sure, it is a bit of a five-minute wonder, but there are worse ways to spend your gaming time.

    Unparalleled style, fantastic artwork, and a blast to play at LANs. I was excited about RDKF since the first trailer came out and have not been disappointed! Collapse

    Awesomely cool! Passes the feeling of the old martial-arts movies, either by the great, simple, fnu & funny gameplay, and by the additional features, like the grain filter, the music, and the backgrounds. Expand

    A very good and original game, inovative and fun! but the lack of patches,support and the long w8 no see world editor droped the rating and the intrest of the gamers. Expand
