Kick the Buddy for Android

Looking for a quick, silly way to blow off steam? Grab the Kick the Buddy APK download for Android on GNVID and meet Buddy, a grinning rag doll who exists only to take whatever you throw at him. Made by Playgendary, the game is free on Google Play, has millions of downloads worldwide and holds a 4.2 out of 5 rating.

What is Kick the Buddy and how does it play?

The idea is simple. Buddy never stops smiling, and your job is to test every crazy idea on him. Blow him up, set him on fire, freeze him solid, shoot arrows at him or even try godlike powers on him.

Controls are just taps and swipes, so you can fling the doll around or fire your chosen weapon in seconds. Buddy reacts to every hit with cartoonish, funny animations, which keeps the whole thing lighthearted rather than grim.

Angry at your boss or just need to hit something? Buddy is a much better target than anything else in the room.

Weapons and content

The game packs a huge arsenal, including:

• Rockets, grenades and automatic guns.
• Saws, acid and assorted other tools.
• An atomic bomb and powers of the gods.

You can also dress Buddy up with different outfits and accessories, and move the chaos between locations such as a room, a laboratory and outer space. Regular updates add new items and effects, and optional in-app purchases offer special items and weapon packs.

Kick the Buddy suits all ages, though parental guidance is recommended for kids.
