Between rounds you collect skulls and spend them on upgrades, gradually building a more powerful archer who can handle tougher enemies.
What is Ragdoll Archers?
Ragdoll Archers puts you in charge of a bow-wielding stickman whose body bends and flops with every shot, thanks to ragdoll physics. Your goal is to kill incoming enemy archers before they kill you. Enemies arrive in escalating waves, and an occasional giant mini-boss joins the fight to raise the stakes. Shoot flying apples to restore health or stamina mid-fight, and bank skulls after each round to buy upgrades before the next wave starts.
Controls and aiming
The game supports one-player and two-player modes on the same device.

Apple pickups and what they do
Apples fly across the screen during each wave. Shoot them to grab the benefit.
| Apple color | Effect |

| Red | Restores health |
| Green | Restores stamina |
| Golden | Restores both health and stamina |
Arrow types and upgrades
Skulls you earn from kills are the upgrade currency. Spend them between waves to raise your health, stamina, or damage, and to unlock extra arrow slots. Special arrow types you can unlock include electric, poison, balloon, and axe arrows, each with its own effect on enemies. Building up arrow variety is the main way to handle the harder later waves.
Tips for lasting longer
- Prioritize the red apple if your health is low; green if your stamina bar is nearly empty.
- Save skulls for damage upgrades first: killing enemies faster prevents the screen from filling up.
- In two-player co-op, have one player focus on apples while the other keeps firing at enemies.
- The giant mini-boss takes many more arrows than a regular enemy, so do not stand still during that wave.
- Electric and poison arrows deal damage over time, which helps against high-health targets.
