Description
Your father was brutally murdered before your eyes. Now you must train hard, eat chicken and punch dudes in the face to earn your place in the Punch Club ranks, and discover who ended your father's life.

Punch Club is a boxing tycoon management game with multiple branching story lines. Your goal is clear, but how you get there depends on whether you want to legitimately climb the rankings, or take the more ridiculous, shady route.

Along the way you'll want to focus your talents. Will you take the Way of the Tiger, the Way of the Turtle, or the Way of the [other one?]? Your strength, accuracy and agility all depends on whichever Way enlightens your path. Do you have stripes, or flippers?

And every decision will matter, especially in your social life. You'll be juggling friendships, love life, work, recreational time, relationships, and possible stardom, all alongside your gym time and fighting alligators. It's not all just pumping iron, you know.
  • Fighter management sim with RPG and tycoon elements.
  • Find out who killed your father, and maybe learn something about yourself along the way.
  • Heavily story-driven, with multiple different narrative branches and game endings to discover.
  • Get as deep with stats as you like, and find your own way through extensive skill trees.
  • Gorgeous pixel visuals with 80-90s references and nostalgia all over the place.

Cool idea. Annoying execution.

Training Montage: the Game. The game is mostly about building up the main character into a fighting machine. The combat is automatic, you only watch it. The combat system is pretty fun, but not as deep as it tries to be. The game is VERY grindy. It does have a surprising amount of variety, but it still leans into the grind most of the time. And it is also rather janky. I haven't encountered anything game breaking, but plenty of small glitches.

The worst thing ever released.

Bunch of assets, not more. It doesn't deserve to be bought for even a penny (cent). developers - a bunch of losers did a disgusting job by releasing that pile of cr@p-code! There are thousands of games, MUCH better than 'punch club'!

Reached a Dead End in my first try...

..and did not bother to restart - what a bummer. You are introduced to Mick, who is willing to give you food if you are on the low end of cash, but he only mentioned that this help is limited when it was too late. Ended up with no cash, no food and no ability to sleep cause that is costing food. Also had no bar unlocked for looking through the thrash for burger. This happened on my first try, since I thought Mick is some kind of Father for our protagonist as "Rocky" is to "Creed", yet he is only a workaround for incoherent and untransparent gameplay design. Bad.

I love this one

Simple game but perfect gameplay. I would suggest this game for growned up guys. Did you watch Rocky? You start with no money and poor fighting skills. You start as a street fighter. You have to train to become the best fighter and win the title. It is possible to choose 3 styles of fight. Strength, Agility or Stamina. You can also mix those styles. I can't spoil, but there is lot of humor in some points of the story. Revivals too! Prepare for the ring. Can you defeat your opponent?

Repetitive, dull game mechanics

I wouldn't recommend this game to anyone. The problem is that the main core loop is very repetitive, super grindy, and is no fun at all. The main character walks super slowly, so most of your time you sit and watch him walk from fridge to gym, slowly. Once in the gym, you have to click on various excercies and wait until he repeats it for the n-th time. And that is about it. It takes time to level him up. Other than that, the graphics look really nice!
