A retro arcade brawler that is ridiculously addictive
I have been completely hooked on https://punchquest.com/ for the past couple of weeks and honestly it is one of the most fun mobile games I have played in years. This arcade style fighting game has you pummelling hordes of monsters with just your left and right thumbs, jabbing, slamming, and uppercutting your way through dungeons full of branching paths, rare events, and endless fragile pottery to smash. What really keeps me coming back is the sheer depth of customisation with unlockable special moves, abilities, and huge combos that let you unleash devastating Supermoves. The humour is brilliant too, I mean where else can you punch an egg that explodes, while you explode, and inside the egg is a gnome, and then you become the gnome and the gnome explodes after a bee sting? It is absolutely ridiculous in the best way possible. The reviews from IGN, Pocket Gamer, and others all rave about it being a flawless combination of endless runner and beat em up with a gorgeous 16 bit aesthetic that feels like a lost SNES classic. The best part is that it is completely free with no catch, which is almost unheard of for something this polished and content rich. I have already sunk hours into unlocking new abilities and chasing higher combos and it never gets old. If you are looking for a quick, satisfying, and laugh out loud funny game to kill time, this is an absolute must download. I have recommended it to all my friends and they are just as addicted as I am now.
