Punch Club

bad

The game is nc. I played a lot this game.

What I would like to change is the game ingame speed. So player movement or general the time where the main character is training. For me its too slow. I am waiting that he finished his training and also the walking from point A to B. The fights has the option to speed it up, so you can do it probably for all kind of activities in this game.

Best wishes

It's a nice game ..has it's ups and downs but in all a nice fun game ! ( 7.5 / 10 )
i have been a fan of the developer since Graveyard keeper ( still hope they will make another like that ) and i played this after and i see they still have that charm to them. keep up the good work :D

It's fun. Definitely worth the price of admission. All the references and such are fun to see and discover as you replay different routes.

The only thing that is irksome is that the all but one of the cut scenes are unskippable and you can't even alt-F4 out of the game if you're trying for a specific starting skill set. Yet they give a pretty flimsy illusion of choice by making the progression quest the only thing you can interact with once you walk into it. It makes trying out different builds once you've beaten the game somewhat annoying if you mess up. I've CTRL-ALT-DELETED out of the game a couple times out of frustration, but don't let that stop you. It's a good developer and an entertaining game.

Punch Club is a fun game about a guy who lives for fighting due to some very hero-like background. You have fights, you learn skills and you learn how to survive by fighting... But the path to be the very best isn't easy, and to reach your objectives you'll have to persevere.

I fell in love with Punch Club as soon as I started it, even though before I couldn't understand its appeal. Played my boyfriend's copy using the steam share family feature, but liked it so much I ended up buying it for myself.

The game's story is very silly, but that's what's so cool about it. Having to manage the time you have to build a training strategy to win fights was really fun. At a determined point in the game, training can get really repetitive though so I sometimes wished there was a fast-forward button or something. I played it as I streamed, so I could keep talking to chat as I did so, but if I was playing by myself this could've become a bigger problem. However, if you have the patience and if, unlike me, you make a good build and don't ignore the game recommendations of not focusing on all three fighting attributes, you'll probably have an easier time.

The ending was too fast, which made me a little sad, but I had a really fun time playing this. It made me rage in all sorts of way and get really absorbed in it, which is always a good thing. Definitely recommend. I won't even do the "recommend if you like..." because I thought I wouldn't like this game at first, but ended up enjoying it. Well, maybe it was the part of me that likes managing stuff so there's that if that helps!

Not a bad game, but not a satisfying one. As a semi-min-maxer I like to know more about what my choices are, but there is a lot of detail that is obfuscated. Its not a challenging or strategicly difficult game, just time grind and guessing. 5/10

EDIT: 6/10, +1 for the comedy, parody and memes

Haven't finished the game, but from what I remember it was fun, the game doesn't take itself too seriously, but it can get boring. Buy with caution.

It's really not what I expected when I got it years ago, I saw a pixel-graphic game, which I love in general and it is pretty, the fighting itself is not controlled by you, all you control are just what type of fighting moves that your dude is gonna use. I did like the stories, they were funny and the ending was pretty good.

However the gameplay is atrocious, mainly the training. You spend your energy, food in training, to gain levels in your Strenght, Agility or Endurance skill, but when the day ends, you lose some of it, meaning you just need to keep grinding over and over again, at the same time you need to do jobs to gain money to buy food and train, and also you need to sleep, you just keep losing progress over and over again, until you are kinda near the end of the game, where money is no longer an issue, but you still need to balance it out. 5/10

Edit: Forgot to say if you want to win, choose the path of bear, I first tried the path of tiger, but apperantly it got nerfed or something, making it useless, with the bear, you are gonna win more easily.

great game

yes

This game holds a special place in my heart, this is the type of game you'd play as a kid and still hold to a high standard after growing older. Liiikkeee idk Duck Life or *insert example of nostalgic Flash game*. Not to say this is similar to those kinds of games but it just gives the same vibe, y'know?

I loved almost everything the game had to offer, the mechanics, the pacing, the story, the whole thing. Everything complements everything else so perfectly and I found it extremely fun to manage all my stats effectively. It is designed in such a way that it is difficult and appealing yet isn't frustrating or tiresome. It was always so satisfying to watch my character beat the crap outta my opponents. I liked the build variety too; being able to choose between moves in a game where the battles are mere simulations is pretty interesting. If you are looking for a game with super engaging fast-paced combat then this won't be the game you are looking for but I believe the experience this game has to offer isn't really like no other, I seriously recommend giving this style of game a try I found it extremely satisfying the entire way through. The story is a nice touch that gives a much greater sense of purpose to the whole thing; I would have been fine with this game being a sort of gauntlet with hardly any plot but the story is a testament to how the developers wanted to go the extra mile and that just makes this game so special to me.

If I had to give one issue with the game it's that the 100% is slightly tedious, some achievements are unclear in what you actually need to do and some others involve playing through the game a second time however this can be somewhat rectified by copying your save file using the steam local files. But either way the 100% shouldn't take too long, the game itself isn't either after all.

I IMPLORE you to try this game for yourself. It is more than worth its price, even more so if it's on sale. You probably haven't tried any games like this in the past but I am willing to bet after playing for a little while you will be hooked on the gameplay loop.

DO YOURSELF A FAVOUR AND GET THIS GAME ITS AMAZING!!!!

Cool game

a lot of bugs, -moral

Its a very funny game. I love the style and the graphics. It takes time to get to the top in the fighting contests.

I am unable to play this game.

I play on linux, that may be part of the reason. I changed the in-game resolution, and now am unable to click back on the menu to change it back, or otherwise interact with the game.

Changing the resolution through "properties" doesn't seem to work either.

This game semt good, but I have no idea how to actually play it.


It seems a full de-installation and reinstallation of the OS has fixed the issue. I will try and see if it is good now.

This game is great tons of references to other entertainment sources. I had tons of fun making my guy beafy af and stealing the TMNT's pizza.

its soo good and fast pace

hahahaha

It's too addictive lol

10\10 🥊

This game is great for the price when on sale but it is not for everyone because it can be grindy at some points of the game.

it is fun

This game is absolutely wonderful, every single aspect is so well-crafted. I recommend everyone play this regardless of what sort of games you usually enjoy.

at the start i was excited but then meeh ! Too much grinding.

kinda grindy but fun.
kinda grindy but dun



it's fun but grindy

3/10 cliche & repeating content
y this game set daily depreciation so fucking high
trash design waste my 1/2 time on gym, btw the shit data is not reliable at all
第二次在这个工作室赤到9+1，游戏设计纯靠重复操作延长游戏时间，拳赛不靠数值靠随机，我地图没解锁完给我随机一个满技能满天赋选手，还有人样吗

Didn't click for me yet, will give it another go eventually. Micro-management and number crunching feels tiring to think, I wish the player's numbers were boosted a lot more, it's kinda grindy. Feels solid otherwise, was looking forward the story if there's one, although it felt linear.

It's pizza time

good

Abandonware. Glitches from 2016 are still alive and well, progression is impossible - https://steamcommunity.com/app/394310/discussions/1/458605613402901644/

TRASH.

It's fun

childhood certified

Тайм-менеджмент. Не сложная, даже на "хардкоре". Пародийная игра, обыгрываются распространенные сюжеты из игр и фильмов, вообщем из поп-культуры. Соответственно много отсылок к ней: места, персонажи и предметы. Вполне веселое времяпрепровождение на пару вечеров с незамысловатым геймплеем.
6/10

sexy

Way too grindy.

you can become friends with a crocodile 10/10

This game is actually really fun and pretty quick to learn how to play and what to do i enjoy it.

The game is fun with a chill retro-style look. It requires a lot of patience. The story is enjoyable, but sometime the way it comes together can be a bit confusing. There are some bug, but overall, it's pretty good.

A game of less than 1GB is mostly repetitive labor. It's not a big deal, there are still bugs in your game!! My archive of over 100 days has disappeared! I played for nothing. Can I get a refund for playing this game for more than 8 hours??

awesome game

Mindless fun, buy on sale.

Good game

Super slow gameplay, quite restrictive and linear.

Fun little game. Softlocks and uneven spikes in difficulties are a thing here - so beware.

A nostalgia driven, pop culture clashing journey. It can feel a bit like a chore sometimes, but for me personally, the fighting aspect was the last important part.

just too grindy for no reason

.

An interesting game for one playthrough.

love that its takes your stats down every day

Great game, the difficulty is good for me, not so hard and not boring,
The story is deep, I get a ton of enjoyment playing this, challenging but also relaxing, also the music is good.

well grinding stat is boring, very frustrating where every day degrade again.
But overall this is great game, I hope other people also enjoy playing it.
