Sock It

It’s a good game! The amount of fights in the game are the key selling point of this, all of them having some form of variance and replayability. The controls are snappy, and don’t slog at all. Very important for this type of game. I like the visual style, and the music is fantastic. I beat it mostly in one sitting without putting the controller down. Very rewarding gameplay. My biggest gripe with the game is everything that wasn’t the actual boxing game itself. Whenever a platforming section came up, I just wanted to go back to the game.

Almost everyone has a trick up their sleeve; just when I'm getting comfortable or confident too quickly, the game nails the timing to catch me offguard. Hard to say much else without spoiling using examples, but I assure you, the second cir...

ask yourself one question do you like punchout? if the answer is "yes" GET THIS GAME IMMEDIATELY if the answer is "no" then go play punchout and then come back the game also has a really intresting story, i personally enjoy it so thats also a plus. this game is a 9/10 (minus one point for it being quite short, but im sure the dev will add more fights eventually) now go play it
