Toribash

Toribash is a turn-based game 3D third-person tactical martial art using physics-based attacks. The game was created by Hampus Söderström, a Swedish software developer, in 2006, and was a "Best Game Idea" finalist at that year's Swedish Game Awards.

Gameplay

The game is played by relaxing, holding, extending, or contracting (raising and lowering featured on left and right shoulders) the various joints on the player's character and hitting the spacebar to advance time by a user-specified amount, the default being ten frames. When properly manipulated, one ragdoll will strike the other, and if enough damage is inflicted with a single blow, a limb or body part may be dismembered, or fractured. Through careful manipulation of the ragdoll's joints, complex attacks can be performed.
