About the Game

"Just when ragdoll was becoming an irritant for gaming, Toribash swoops in to demonstrate why it's the best thing since shaded pixels." - PC Format

"Great physics; the best PC fighting game since "Rag Doll Kung Fu." - PC Gamer UK

Toribash is an innovative free-to-play online turn-based fighting game where you’re able to design your own moves. It is a martial arts simulator (yes, we do call a game with full body dismemberment a simulator) where you move your character by controlling joints on their body. As each of them can have 4 different states, number of possible moves is almost endless, which makes fights unique.


Main features:

  • Completely unique fights with players all around the world
  • Unlimited character customization: body colors, textures, flames, hairs and more!
  • Daily knockout tournaments hosted by the Event Squad
  • Lots of ingame and forum events
  • Ability to modify the environment and characters using the built-in Mod Maker
  • Open market - trade any of your items with your friends or just give them for free!
  • An extremely long game genre name
