What is this game? "Punch Club" is an auto battler/time management game - that's all about growing stronger as a fighter, and to eventually become the world champion. This in a setting full of 80s, 90s combat, movie, game, and show references. Price/replay value Horrible - Bad - Decent - Good - Amazing Achievement hunting The large majority of achievements are story based and thus unmissable. A few are regarding the good/bad guy route however. A few fairly challenging ones like "Triple B", hardcore, and 100 days, can be difficult if you don't know the game that well. A strength based build generally renders these quite easy with proper time management though. Pros/cons Pros [*]Great build variety [*]Tons of references for fans of fighting games/movies [*]Humorous Cons [*]Unskippable "cutscenes" and dialogue [*]Stat decay is tedious [*]Fights can be fairly rng heavy Overall opinion I quite thoroughly enjoyed playing and completing this game. The 3 main builds (tiger, bear, turtle) have great variety and play extremely differently, making for quite good replay value. Some dialogue definitely got a laugh out of me as well. The only real "ick" I had when playing fresh runs was the forced Dark Fist moments as sometimes you'll be low on HP from a previous fight, return home, and then have to fight a very strong opponent (usually making you lose). Besides that there weren't many annoying parts besides training being repetitive. One major issue I had with this game though (apparently resolved in the sequel though) - is that your stats decay by 9 points per level at the end of every day. There's no way to change this besides "game reviewer" difficulty, which disables achievements. Whilst incredibly annoying, it can definitely be negated by training efficiency buffs. A minor complaint would also be the rng of some fights (especially prevalent with strength builds) - where you can either miss 8 hits in a row, or KO the opponent round 1. (Force close scumming does "fix" this if you need the extra days.) tldr; Good replayability - mildly annoying at times. Should you buy it? Yes.

Fun concept but way too grindy. Worst ending I've ever seen in a video game. Still recommended if it's on sale.

Fun but has some serious flaws. Relatively short game with a fun story, a lot of pop culture references. Good graphics and soundtrack. Gameplay is interesting but it's too grindy, so sometimes you just get tired. Eventually you will beat the game but the path is arduous and its easy to screw up things, some fight lost can cost you many days in game. Bugs. There are a lot of them, if you play in 60Hz+ monitors you need to set it to 60Hz or your character will walk slow as a sloth. Beside all this issues it's a worth game to play, specially because it's short.

I bought this on sale, not knowing anything about the game at all other than it's a boxing game with pixel graphics. To my complete and utter surprise, it ended up being one of my new favortie games to play! It's 2D, open world sorta and you have to level up your character through training, sparring, and working out while maintaining proper sleep/food/work etc...the two characters that strongly resemble Jay and Silent Bob outside the Grocery Store absolutely made my entire day when I saw it. The only thing that throws me off about the game is the fighting. You cannot control the guy during the fight, you just pre-plan your moves and watch while your character implements them during the round. It's kinda cool though how it involves good planning skills though. Certain moves use more stamina than others so you have to pick and choose wisely. Overall 9/10. Absolutely surprisingly fell in LOVE with this game!
