Kick the Buddy: Second Kick: Android installation guide
What to know before playing
Kick the Buddy: Second Kick is the remastered ragdoll interaction game, with tapping, dragging and throwing controls and items to unlock. Confirm the Second Kick subtitle before installing, because the original has a separate store entry. Review the content rating and any purchase or subscription prompts before playing. Start with the basic interactions to understand the interface rather than assuming all tools are included immediately with the download.
Check availability on your device
Open the linked Google Play listing on the phone or tablet you intend to use. Check its compatibility message, current price, age guidance, and data-safety section. Requirements and availability can vary by device and region, so use the live listing rather than an old version number to make your decision.
Install Kick the Buddy: Second Kick through Google Play
- Use the Google Play button below and check the app title and publisher.
- Read the price or purchase prompt. Choose Install, or complete the store purchase if required.
- Wait for installation to finish, then open the app. Follow its first-run instructions and review any account settings.
If the download gets stuck
Check your internet connection and available storage, close and reopen Google Play, and restart the device if needed. These are Google's basic download troubleshooting steps. If the store reports that the device is incompatible, check the listing; a different installer should not be assumed to resolve that limitation.
Update or reinstall without losing track of your account
Check for updates in Google Play under Manage apps & device. Before uninstalling, review the game's account or backup options: installing again does not by itself guarantee that local progress will return. For a paid app, use the Google account that originally purchased it.
Where to find game details
Read the Kick the Buddy: Second Kick detail page for additional game information. Playrivo provides the store link on this page; it does not supply an APK file or handle store payments.
