Punch Club
While it makes a few missteps in some critical areas, for fans of life sims or boxing movies, this is definitely worth checking out.
25% point-and-click and 75% sports manager that starts out light-footed and turns into a heavy slugger towards the end.
Punch Club is not a game for everyone. Fans of the genre will love it, but a certain repetitiveness makes it not recommended to those looking for adrenaline and action in a videogame.

Punch Club, boksör olma deneyimini gerçekten başarılı bir şekilde yansıtıyor. Hikayesi insanı içine çekiyor ve "Bir sonraki adımda ne olacak?" diye merak ettiriyor. Mizahi dili, eğlenceli yapısı ve çeşitli göndermeleriyle de oyuna ayrı bir tat katıyor. Ancak oyunun üzücü yanı, bazı aşamalarda oyunun döngüye girmesi. Özellikle para kazanma ya da karakteri güçlendirme kısımlarında aynı şeyleri tekrar tekrar yapmak, bir süre sonra sıkıcı hale gelebiliyor. Kısacası Punch Club, hikayesi ve atmosferiyle keyif verse de, oynanıştaki tekrarlar nedeniyle zaman zaman yorucu bir hal alabiliyor.

The WORST game on this **** dog piss PC platform. Seriously, this game ****! I tried playing it with my friend, but he just punched me in the **** and pushed me over. Not cool dude! Don't hit your friends! Why would anyone do that? If you do that you're a **** ****. Anyways, back to my review. So I started playing this game and realized it's a **** PC exclusive (excluding; IOS, Xbox one, Nintendo Switch, 3DS and Playstation 4)! and anything on the dog piss platform is ****! It's just a bunch of **** you know? Plus it's way to hard to train, and not at all like 'Fight Club: The Game'. Wish you moved faster. **** this **** game, I'm getting some coffee. I need a bagel. Don't be a **** moron and play this **** ass game. If you do, **** yourself. Get off this dog piss PC platform while you can.

Плохой менеджмент персонажа, в бою ведет себя как последний олень, нельзя заставить урода драться агрессивнее, или стоять пассивно в защитной стойке, плюсом к этому нужно забивать все ячейки умениями, что является невероятным идиотизмом разработчика. Нельзя нормально накопить на тренажеры, потому что если по скрипту у гг много денег, то по пути к точке тебя трахают и забирают половину средств, а копов в игре нет чтобы задефаться, хоть и с долей рандома, нет тебя просто трахают и в итоге ты снова пашешь, и так бесконечно. В игре вообще нечем заниматься, одно и тоже дрочишь постоянно, поработал(выбирай 1 из 2 работенок), пожрал, посрал, поспал, пошел тренироваться, и так на протяжении неск часов на мид сложности, на последней сложности играть желания не возникает, игра сырое кусманище курятины, нормально не продумана и не реализована как достойный проект, и в неё пихнули ещё идиотскую сложность чтобы растянуть и без того унылейший геймплей, который можно было разнообразить мини-играми бустящими статы или дающие денежные ресурсы, но разрабы решили себя не утруждать и высрали крайне низкокачественное подобие на игру

Lazy Bear Games have created a retro themed-world that is wonderfully entertaining and simply must be experienced by gamers far and wide.

Punch club is quite funny and a bit magic play, as it is also very repetitive and grueling manager of a novice boxer. [Issue#260]

Personal note. But the game is good, remember game dev tycoon, I like games in that style. Interesting plot at the end of the story

Whilst the need for constant grinding may prove too much for players looking for a carefree 80's-90's thrill, the sheer amount of love, soul and polish that has gone into every one of Punch Club's pixels, more than makes up for it. A delightful taste of what made our late childhood and early adolescence so much fun to live through and a pretty addicting management sim in its own right.

Truly an homage to the glorious eighties, Punch Club is an interesting project with a good challenge level, partially ruined by passive fights and a repetitive campaign.

Witty and undemanding game where the right tactics wins over the simple mouse-clicking your opponent to death. If you like Rocky or Blood Sport movies, and somewhere deep inside you lies a desire to become a champion, you definitely have to play the Punch Club.

If you can put up with the ever-present grind and can see through the frustrating moments then you’ll have a good time playing through Punch Club’s celebration of 90s action, if not then you may find yourself looking for a new keyboard, or worse, a monitor as a result of working through game related anger issues.

In a nutshell, Punch Club acted like a stamina-fueled boxer and wore me down. Over time I found myself loathing the training process I originally felt happy progressing in. What started as a fun progression from nobody to star became a tedious task of increasing numbers that may or may not affect the outcome of a fight.

Very liked this game. A lot of jokes, interesting gameplay, very good art and music. Waiting for continue, Punch Club 2, or DLC. OK, you start as very weak and noobie fighter. You BECOME fighter to revenge for your father killers. Can't say more about storyline, I don't like spoilers. Punch Club is the best tycoon game I've ever played. If you like this genre and 80's stylistics this game is foe you.

I really enjoyed it at the beginning. The many small Estereggs in particular give the game a nice charm. Unfortunately, at some point it becomes very repetitive when you have to train, work and sleep for a long time, only to have a lot of bad luck in the next battle and it all starts all over again. Nevertheless, I can recommend the game.

This game started off well-enough, with a decent story that wasn't too heavy. However, the main issue emerges when you play the game- because your attributes drain when you don't train them, Punch Club becomes a staggering monument to idle games where you mindlessly click buttons to watch numbers go up and down. By the end, it feels much like punching in numbers into a calculator rather than watching your protagonist train for a big fight. I couldn't even bear to finish the game after I realized what I was doing- just running the same repetitive tasks over and over, sometimes in different settings, but otherwise always doing the same. I do not recommend the game and I warn those that try it on Steam- you may not realize that the game is shallow and repetitive until after the two hour refund mark. However, when on sale for under $5.00, then maybe it's worth it.

Terrible engine, one bug can mess up your whole savegame. For an non-alpha/beta release this Game is really bugged and crappy built. Engine protects against cheats/hacks but messes up the whole Game. The dev's prioritized in some wrong aspects.
