Punch Club

First, I can't believe there are people on GOG who gave this game less than 4* !!! For me it's everything GOG was (and is) about. A game with a classic feel about it, full of content and things to do and discover. I fancy management games and love story driven games so this is a perfect blend! It just feels so 80's and is so well designed, game mechanics and both visuals and soud&music. I own a steam version but surely will buy it here too once it gets cheaper! Hope for more games like this.

Disclaimer; I see a number of poor reviews due to bugs and developer attitude. I experienced no bugs while playing the game, nor have I seen reason to interact with the devs. This is a game review. I found this to be a funny, genuine little gem that brought me back to the 90s. To me this is a melange of Jones in the fast lane and that SNES boxer (punch.. up?... super punch... whatwasit?). It is, like Jones, a time management game at its core. The fighting per se is more like a rock paper scissor exercise where you choose your strategy up front and then see how it fares. It is not very difficult. And, like Jones in the fast lane it has numerous parodies both of real life and pop culture, Rocky, Karate kid, Street Fighters and TMNT being obvious 90s referances - but you can find Fight Club and more modern, even contemperary referances. This makes it very enjoyable to me, even if the gameplay quickly gets mastered to a point near, (but not at) boring. It certainly has that one-more-round addictiveness in there somewhere. The game would have been stale if not for the visuals and the music. Very well made are both, in that regards it also reminds me of the giant of old, OMF which never was a superior *fightin*g game, but it certainly was the superior game to me, compared to the more refined fighters. It was well worth its asking price at release, it is more so now. Would purchase again.

the game crash window -_- the game not working at all, only crash on startup... Windows 10 pro version 1909 intel i7 7700k Ram 16GB 3200MHz Nvidia GTX 1080 HDD +100GB free in 4 HDDs SSD +40 GB libre in System drive... the game is imposible to do not run in my pc...

I wish there were more games with graphics like this one.
