- music8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
The music in the game receives mixed reviews, with some players appreciating its quality while others criticize it for being repetitive and not fitting the game's atmosphere. Overall, the soundtrack is seen as a weak point, lacking variety and failing to enhance the gaming experience.
“The music is good at least.”
“The OST was a little weak; I get it, but it's not a great fit for the game.”
“The music isn't good either.”
“It just plays the same few repetitive songs over and over.”
Old-School Arcade Action
Super Punch Patrol isn’t the longest game, and replaying the same stages can get a bit tedious, but the quality elements far outweigh the negatives. The presentation is excellent, and it’s clear that a lot of work went into building a world that pays homage to the genre’s best.

Super Punch Patrol feels like a greatest hits package, but that's the thing about the greatest hits – they're great. And so is Super Punch Patrol, in the end. For the price you'll pay, it's nothing short of spectacularly generous; there are only five stages, but they're tough as old boots and it'll take time to master the challenge and see those credits roll. With costumes and characters to unlock there's reason to keep playing even after you surmount this beastly little brawler, and at £4.99 it's a bit of a no-brainer.
