Reviews
- The game is enjoyable and provides a fun way to pass the time with its simplistic boxing simulator mechanics.
- The animations are smooth, and the interface is user-friendly, especially on PC, making it easy to manage training and progression.
- It has addictive qualities that keep players engaged, reminiscent of mobile money-sink games, without in-game monetization.
- The game is extremely slow and grindy, with progression feeling tedious and often frustrating due to forced retirements and lack of meaningful upgrades.
- Players experience a lack of real challenge, as the difficulty feels artificially inflated through random price increases and opponent skill jumps.
- The game can become repetitive and boring, with limited boxer management options and a lack of strategic depth in fights.
