Gree launches its ridiculous fighting game Flop Fu, born from its G-Labs experiment

Most fighting game makers brag about the precision of control in battle. Not Gree. The company’s G-Labs team is launching Flop Fu, which could be one of the dumbest mobile games ever made.

Therein lies its appeal, according to Gree. With Flop Fu, you fight against another player in a traditional 2D battle. But instead of kicking and punching, you can only do two somewhat vague and imprecise actions: flop or flail. The cartoon graphics are also among the worst you’ll see in a game coming from a major company.
