Yard Athletics: Ragdoll Games

Track and field, courtyard edition! No stadium, no problem: the clothesline is the bar, the sandbox is the long jump pit, benches and baby strollers are the hurdles. Three guys squatting by the bench hold up score cards — and they love a good fall. Five disciplines, one finger each. Every attempt takes 10–20 seconds and the body physics is real: a missed jump turns into a hilarious ragdoll tumble. Disciplines • Pole vault over a clothesline: tap to run, hold to plant the pole, release to push up, hold to tuck over the rope • Kettlebell throw: hold to spin, release in the green sector. Miss — and it flies into a window, the bushes or a garage • Hurdles: tap to run, swipe up to jump over benches, bins and strollers • Long jump into the sandbox: hold for the angle, release at the curb — step over and it is a faceplant • Watermelon put: pick the angle, hold for power. Too steep — it lands on your head Features • Real ragdoll physics: every fall is different and funny • Judges score your technique — and the spectacle of your fall, so funny crashes earn points too • Career: yard, district, city — 15 stages with bronze, silver and gold • Coins for tracksuits, sneakers and poles: bamboo, aluminium, carbon • Yard records for every discipline • One-finger controls, short attempts • Works offline • English, Russian, Spanish and Portuguese Grab your sneakers and win the yard!
