The 16 Best Games Like 'Gang Beasts'

Like the laughably negligent physics of Gang Beasts, Toribash's uncertain sense of control gives way to priceless slapstick spectacles. But instead of frantically mashing buttons like the scatterbrained scraps of Gang Beasts, Toribash offers thoughtful turn-based struggles where players micro-manage the joints of their hopeless fighters. The battles may unfurl slower, but the tension ratchets up with each jittery repositioning of limbs until an entire body dissolves into calamity with one faulty twitch. Few games can match the cringe-inducing hilarity of Toribash allowing you to watch an overextended limb slowly but surely pull a body inside-out. It's worth checking out this game's sequel Toribash Next if you enjoy this first pick, by the way!

Like overinflated floats bouncing around a bumper car rink, Sumotori Dreams’ chubby combatants careen off walls, floors, and each other with reckless abandon. Watching blobby fighters spiraling through the air to flatten each other appeals to that same slapstick-loving spirit as Gang Beasts, even if the multiplayer madness has been distilled into passively viewed 1v1 sumo showdowns. The real joy comes from discovering and exploiting the environment itself — springs, traps, and even breakable floors become weapons. Though you participate less directly, the hilarity feels no less intense.

Like a hilarious hybrid between Octodad and Gang Beasts, Rubber Bandits is all about controlling the limbs of would-be thieves who overestimate their sneaking abilities. Their loose, gelatinous appendages sway and wiggle with minds of their own, thwarting any attempts at being stealthy cat burglars. But while Gang Beasts delivers free-for-all fisticuffs, Rubber Bandits channels that physical comedy into methodical multiplayer heists, or at least attempts at heists. The sheer struggle to make bandits coordinate their elastic limbs creates preposterous circus-like feats while collecting as much loot as possible makes for a hilarious and memorable time. 

Boasting the same booze-addled buffoonery, Drunken Wrestlers 2 sides more towards sloppy grappling than direct fighting. Up to eight inebriated contenders can join the fold, though it often devolves into 1v1 as the others gaze skyward from awkward positions. The drunken disorientation looks all too familiar for Gang Beasts veterans, but the expanded maneuverability with grappling takedowns and turnbuckle exploits adds another layer. Still, matches often end with more stumbling around than technical takedowns. And much like a real seedy bar brawl, veterans will dominate as newbies struggle with control and orientation. But for some good-natured and good-humored competition among friends, Drunken Wrestlers 2 offers appropriately intoxicating physics-gone-wrong fun.

Like a drunken circus performer, Human: Fall Flat's clumsy customizable character flops through obstacle courses with the grace of a newlyborn puppy. Gang Beasts captures the chaos of bad balance and wavering limbs, but Human: Fall Flat makes it the main event. Precision platforming gives way to freeform problem solving where simply navigating from point A to B becomes a Herculean trial of physical comedy. With destructible environments and physics puzzles to solve, nearly every interaction births an absurd Rube Goldberg-esque chain of events - all to move an inch further. With more methodical, co-op calamity than Gang Beasts, you should still expect to have just as many therapeutic belly laughs watching your helpless humans farcically fumble around. Keep an eye out for the release of Human: Fall Flat 2, too!

Like Gang Beasts with a Saturday morning cartoon makeover, KnockOut Party turns the buffoonery up to family-friendly levels. Battling across building tops, haunted houses, and beaches with responsive controls and a friendlier learning curve, the Looney Tune-esque physical comedy still delivers ridiculous spectacle. Trading Gang Beasts' bloodthirsty brutality for bouncy environments where ring-outs decide the victor rather than knockouts, KnockOut Party captures the carefree casual fun of couch competition without the venom, where laughter drowns out frustration. You'll surely be satisfied with the off-the-wall fun on offer here from this latest pick on our list of the best games like Gang Beasts.

Like an eccentric EMT simulator fused with Gang Beasts’ brand of silly physics, The Stretchers strands a duo of shaky operators to rescue absurdly accident-prone patients. Maneuvering splint-wielding stretcher carriers would seem simple enough, but wobbly controls and unwieldy physics turn every rescue into planned chaos. The delight comes not from carefully securing patients, but from laughing at the calamitous collapse of best-laid plans. The Stretchers finds humor in the hopeless struggle against coordination between carriers - the further you manage to haul a patient, the funnier the inevitable ragdoll crash. It's less about medical malpractice and more about the beautiful failures along the way.

Embodying the same reckless lack of limb control as a Gang Beasts match, Drunk Fu: Wasted Masters could easily be mistaken for a reskinned clone focused on martial arts. But the hand-to-hand emphasis adds another layer of precarity as inebriated fighters struggle for balance while unleashing wildly uncertain strikes. The real joy comes from discovering what spastic, half-formed fighting style your shaky drunk-fu master will concoct - an uneven hybrid of Karate, Muay Thai, and some Capoeira. For party game kicks, Drunk-Fu delivers equally unconventional beatdowns with a bit more strategy. Still, it's nothing short of a KO kung fu comedy and a bonafide recommendation for those of you on the lookout for the best games like Gang Beasts.

Like Gang Beasts by way of a shabby delivery company, Totally Reliable Delivery Service tasks teams with coordinating unwieldy packages from truck to doorstep. But with controls akin to intoxicated forklift drivers, box-hauling inevitably degrades into disasters of sadly slapstick proportions. The co-op logistics melt into laughter-inducing pandemonium, eliciting sadistic satisfaction when watching a well-laid plan crumble into embarrassing chaos, especially under the pressure of a ticking clock. Equally as amusing to partake in as observed, Totally Reliable Delivery Service brings all the catastrophic clowning of Gang Beasts to routine blue-collar tasks.

Like a frantic game of dodgeball with bizarre bodily contortions, Boomerang Fu turns long-range weaponry into close-quarters chaos. With a shared health pool, teams of up to 6 players carefully chuck a barrage of physics-defying projectiles from boomerangs to pies to trash cans. But unsteady footing and slippery dodging quickly erode any strategic edge into floundering firefights. The dynamic arenas shower combatants with environmental traps and tricks as well, further feeding the controlled chaos. Much like Gang Beasts with long-distance weaponized warfare, Boomerang Fu retains that central tension between tactical choices and hapless floundering that makes or breaks a physics-based brawler.

Underneath the gory veneer and pixelated visuals, Nidhogg 2 shares the same tense back-and-forth physics-based battles balanced on a razor’s edge as Gang Beasts. But instead of 4 player free-for-alls, Nidhogg 2 delivers pure 1v1 duels across platforms and ledges. With sword-based combat, fighting becomes an intricate dance of strikes, parries, throws, and counters. But when either fighter gains an advantage or loses their sword, it transforms into a frantic chase as the weaponless party flees towards their side of the screen. Each duel ebbs and flows between desperate self-defense and aggressive offense, giving Nidhogg 2 the type of chaotic reversals in fortune that you can expect from games like Gang Beasts. 

Pummel Party packs potently unstable physics into a colorful board game bash, offering a lot of strategic variance. A mega mix of Mario Party-style minigames and Worms-esque sabotage, the wacky slugfests unfold on game boards peppered with environmental traps. But like Gang Beast's fickle sense of balance and limb control, the over-the-top minigames turn competition into delightful chaos du jour. Whether struggling to keep upright as cruise ship waves batter banana hoarders or attempting coordinated bank heists gone awry, Pummel Party’s brand of skill-resistant challenges squeeze maximum enjoyment out of watching friends fail forward with flying colors.

Like Gang Beasts drugged and stuffed into animal mascot costumes, Party Animals delivers equally unstable physics inside slippery, unwieldy fursuits. The button-mashing gameplay remains familiar, but the added layers of visual impairment recapture that initial wrestling with the controls. Characters flounder almost helplessly, relying on random environmental attacks as their oversized shoes and suits turn naive navigation into a slapstick spectacle. Yet as with any good mascot brawl, there’s an endearing innocence cushioning each failed roundhouse or flubbed weapon swing. It strips the grit and expands the cuteness for a softer, sillier take on physics gone wrong while retaining the delightful mayhem of wrestling with bad controls.

Fling to the Finish distills the wiggly-limbed uncoordinated chaos of Gang Beasts into a frantic race to the end rather than a free-for-all beatdown. While coordinating a stretchy blob of limbs across platforms and obstacles, competitors quickly learn bodily control is a fantasy, making navigating the racetrack an exercise in flailing hilarity. The mayhem amplifies exponentially when factoring in up to four player races, device-tossing environmental traps, and shifting level layouts. Fling to the Finish's limited moveset ensures focus stays on navigating unwieldy anatomy - it's less about besting others than surviving yourself, with triumph going to those most willing to flop their way to the finish line.

Easily the most eccentric entry on this list, Fight Crab arms towering crustaceans wielding realistic weaponry for physics-defying showdowns. The sheer oddity of uprooted sea creatures having sword duels and shootouts on land evokes Gang Beasts' aura of unapologetic weirdness. But underneath the aquatically absurd exterior lies a surprisingly comprehensive fighting system, with each limb manually controlled to swing blades or fire guns attached to claws. The layered strategy makes bouts more methodical while factoring in the volatile uncertainty of battling unwieldy bodies barely under your control. Of all the oddball options, nothing captures the extreme novelty of Gang Beasts quite like witnessing an arrogant crab get blown backward by a shotgun blast only to retort with a barbed sword uppercut combo. Be sure to check out Fight Crab 2 when it drops, too!

With well over 75 million players to date, Rocket League has hardly faded from the gaming limelight even almost nine years after launch. Rocket League turned unwieldy physics into mass appeal as a car-soccer hybrid, and although like Gang Beasts, its novelty has worn off some, its finely tuned balance between skill expression and wobbly chaos still delivers tense competition. The consistency of new seasonal content and a dedication to tight, responsive controls and mechanics have greatly contributed to Rocket League's staying power even against heavy incoming competition. And while wackier genre-blending titles have since replicated Rocket League’s magic formula, none have matched the precise polishing that’s allowed nearly a decade of relevance.
