Players are able to view their characters' moves in 3D, allowing for some fantastic photo opportunities. But perhaps the greatest thing about Ragdoll Masters for Windows is its sound effects. The in-game sounds are both very realistic and entertaining, as evidenced by the fact that the player character can be heard issuing a series of commands, such as "shoot" and "grab." Other characters can be heard speaking in-game as well.
