Punch Machine Reviews

by Plaid11

I spent money on this game and I regret it now. It’s a fun game that I wouldn’t have a problem spending money on if it worked properly. It doesn’t and that’s why I regret putting any money into this game. No matter what I do or how long I play, I can’t move any further. I can’t upgrade anything but my year and I’m now at 689. Everything else is as far as I can take it. There is zero advancement happening no matter how much higher I increase the year. Then there's the VS mode. I beat a guy and then it freezes at the results screen. There is absolutely no more advancing in this game even though there is advancements to be made. I even waited a couple weeks for this stuff to get fixed and nothing. ABSOLUTELY DO NOT, DO NOT SPEND ANY MONEY ON THIS GAME!!!!! Wrote: Oct 21, 2023

Update: Nov 08, 2023
Now my year is 1600 and there is absolutely zero progress being made. Even when I reach the next character, it doesn’t give me the next character. They have made 2 or 3 updates to the game since my original post but it hasn’t improved the game at all. Spending money on any Rollic made game is not worth it because they won’t do anything to let you continue to progress. Apple needs to keep them from putting anymore games out there because it’s a scam. STAY AWAY FROM ROLLIC GAMES!!!!!

I downloaded this last night and played for a while and everything seemed to be functioning fine. This morning I opened PunchMachine and it says I’ve been attacked. It loaded the two fighters that attacked me and said whether or not I won the attack. After that, the game stays on the screen showing the second fighter that attacked me and does not proceed. I have been opening this game throughout the day and each time has been the same; loads the two attackers and then nothing. I’m currently “ranked” #1 Master due to the overwhelming amount of attacks, but I can’t play the dang game!

Ads are terrible. Gives you the option to skip add but makes you watch it anyway and they can’t be muted so u have to listen to something stupid

by BryanH97

It was fun and addicting at first, til I learned that at a certain point your character’s stats become meaningless.

Game wants to make you think that your progression gets slower overtime, and that spending real money is the only way to speed up the process. In reality, your character is programmed to stop improving once you reach a certain level on your attributes.

Unfortunately, majority of people will still fall for it, and that’s why these greedy companies continue to thrive.

by Jakeee0207

Wish I could rate this game 0 stars. It’s the same concept as all of the other games that look like this. They aren’t even how real games should work. According to this you need to pay money to get rid of ads and to advance. Otherwise you are stuck playing the same levels for a long time. Horrible game and just a money waster. All of these games are just after your money.

by MrTheDoctor

Very little actual game design happening here. The whole point of any of these games is to draw you in with cute graphics, and then bombard you with as many ads as possible for before you realize that the upgrades don’t matter and there is no challenge. You have to watch ads to get the items needed to progress.

by Beansarebussinbro

This game looked fun and all until you start playing it, it’s easy in the beginning then it gets impossible to get the upgrades and stuff, not to mention the battles with other “people” and I say that because these people are way to op, you’ll be fighting against someone with like slightly LOWER upgrade but flying punch and they’ll beat you in one hit, so yeah, don’t get it 😐

by Miycho Da P

After a while you can only watch an add to upgrade your glove but no matter how many times you watch the add your gloves will never change, also I literally can’t even play anymore, it freezes in the middle of the level….EVERY TIME, no matter if I’m connected to Wi-Fi or not.

by Real Person 102938

PunchMachine is a waste of time, doesn’t allow me to hit the other person, the upgrades don’t allow you to go over 300 years. They don’t want you to upgrade so you can watch ads to upgrade. Don’t waste your time

by PythonForever

I don't know if it's just me but with this new update I'm essentially restarting with punch speed and other stuff, but with all my levels and everything still at the max, used to love playing this game

by Kirtson

You shouldn’t need WiFi to play an offline game that doesn’t have multiplayer games like these are just trying to make a quick buck and not even trying to let you have fun

by Terrible Person 69

It honestly isn’t worth it. Play 15 seconds of non rewarding gameplay to watch a 40 second ad. You also don’t reward the players enough to upgrade without playing it for 2 months.

by Timothy444444444444

After every match it offers upgrades for adds. Even if you say no it makes you watch an add anyway. Even though you can fast forward the add it happens every match

by Shahajqkqkn

Great game. Whenever I log out overnight when I come back it always goes through who challenged me while I was away and it takes FOR EVER to sort through all the matches. Plus it only shows me the results of two matches at a time then it just stays stuck on the results page. I have to force close PunchMachine and restart it then it shows me another 2 results. Over and over again! This is like the 13th match I’ve had to do this with today which is why I’m leaving 1 star. Please fix this.

It’s been over an hour and it’s promoted me through every rank to master and the first place position of all people in the game. Clearly glitched. Last time I deleted PunchMachine and reinstalled it fixed it but I lost all my progress. Please help

by RheThater

The game crashes... constantly... due to how many ads are loading at all times. If you kept them off the screen, then the game might at least run!

by Beast Dont Lie

I hate when a fun small game is made but forces you to watch 1min ads. I would suggest lowering them and having them pop up and be able to exit out for more playability.

by BillSlic

I would give this 5 stars but….
I’ve only played the game once. When I tried to open PunchMachine again I was informed of my rank change. Issue is when it does that it try’s to show you your opponent’s faught as well as the result but never goes passed two and doesn’t give an option to close that screen. I’ve opened and closed PunchMachine like 20xs and still haven’t got to play fr. Please fix this

by .-..-/

During this update I am stuck watching the attack screen. It’s been about 20 minutes of opening and closing. Only showing 2 attackers and then they stand there, the screen gives me no option to continue on within PunchMachine .

by The Master Io Gaming

Gets so laggy and buggy after just 10 minutes

by Dopeboy601

I i cant play without ads trash

by 2_Gxdlykid

the adds don’t do anything for you no matter how long you sit there i would like to be able to watch an add that is benefiting you to also benefit me.

by Skeeking117

Typical game. Nothing but ads! Don’t download

This game started off as one of my favorite to play but at a certain point. I can’t upgrade my punch speed, or length anymore nor how many coins I earn. The only thing I can upgrade is the years my fighter has but the biggest problem is that I can even get past anymore levels because of this limiter. It’s quite frustrating because it’s a good game to relieve stress and have a small amount of fun on but having a game that technically can’t be beaten is the opposite of why games were made in the first place.

by Kittencatfet

I have reached a point when I am doing the bra that it will not take me higher even tho it should there ya space. Then the game just freezes and won’t move. I’m really frustrated because I was enjoying the game and now I can’t play the whole thing.

Came in here today to see if I needed to update the game and that was not the issue. Please help

by Californiiia

Well then this game is for you. Oh wait you can pay $5 to get no ads but if you don’t watch ads to increase the year of your gloves or the coins to purchase upgrades, it will take infinite times longer to get up in level. But wait there’s more! You can pay for infinite skips through ads if you pay $30. So take out $35 of your parents money and throw it in the trash because this is a trash game.

by BillNyeThSciGuy

this game is broke. I am at level 1000 and use me as an example because I paid for the premium but this game the creators want to take your money. I’ve watched tons of ads and it’s the only way to upgrade in this game but it’s all fake. Once you get far enough in the game your bonuses will say 600 or 700 but it locks it at 300 and so there is a point where you literally cannot level up anymore and the game locks you out even though it will tell you to watch ads to both of your numbers. It’s all fake after a certain point I will say that this game is a great time waster, but it is kind of pointless in the end. It is kind of fun and that’s why I gave it a 2 star instead of a 1 star.

by Niki!!.

Like everyone said there’re ads, but they’re not too bad. The thing I hate is there are additional things you can get with ads (i.e. additional punches that fly next to you, or an additional fighter) and when they’re active, they will always go for the same item on the rack, so you’re gaining nothing by having them, as you’ll still only clear like 2 or 3 of the weights on there, instead of them all going for other ones. Kinda stupid

by Caine0917

After you get to a certain point you can’t watch ads to upgrade anything it just keeps the same offer showing up and doesn’t upgrade your gloves even if you watch the glove upgrade ad

by The Legend 277

game has a cool concept but the ads ruin it. the game is nothing but “watch this ad!” finish a level? watch an add to get more coins. want an upgrade? gotta watch an ad for it. its very annoying

by 1212282422

I just got back on the game after a few days and it keeps popping up that I got beat by other characters and my trophies go up and down and then it won’t let me do anything I’ve tried closing PunchMachine but the problem still occurs

by Skeeast

Glitch’s bad spam video uprgrades
Dont work
Then it do work n glitch to end and throw

by WVUeers77

This game is a fun time killer and seemed to be well designed, until you don't play it for a couple of days.

When the game gives you results of a VS match that happened while you weren't playing, there is NO WAY to get out of the leaderboard screen. You have to kill PunchMachine and relaunch it. I've gone through at least 20 leaderboard screens, and every time I've had to kill PunchMachine and reopen it.

Once this gets fixed, the game will be playable. Until then, it simply isn't playable.

by AsAs032393

Paid for ad free just to have to have to keep watching ads

by OMG JUST LET ME

Tbh this game is very fun but I don’t like the fact u get ads every time I complete a level

by Drewloy

Pros: You can slowly achieve your Gum Gum Gatling fantasy

Cons: It’ll overheat your phone and mess with your phone’s brightness a bunch

by Zordree Rhalo

Fun and enjoyable game
But overnight I was attacked from the pvp function
However the game only loads the results of 2 attacks and then stops
I have to close my app and reopen it and I’ve already done this about fifteen times and it’s still not done

by Issa Review 77554

I’ve watched multiple ads for the start higher power up but thought the value says 730 it seems to max out at 300 so I’ve spent quite a bit of time trying to upgrade it but was disappointed to see it only went up from 16,000 to 16,300 after collecting the highest upgrade. Please look into this and get it fixed, it would make the game more enjoyable if we were rewarded for time put into it.

by Cht27

so like basically its showing yk like “while you were away..” and it shows who i won against and lost against and it shows only like 2-3 people then like it jst stops like it stops showing who i won against or lost against and it jst freezes basically, the 3 characters are just there not moving and the leaderboard in the back not moving and i cant get out of it and i close and open the game and it does the same exact thing and now i cant play the game anymore

by LofiJ

I’ve played this game for a long time, and it’s a great time waster honestly! Just waiting in lines, or just have nothing I feel like doing. Opening PunchMachine, has been like second nature almost (and I have a bunch of other time waster games). My only gripe is with the newest mode Match Making. It used to be fine, then after I got all the in app purchases, that mode specifically would start the match, I’d win (I have no other choice), and the. It would be stuck on the rewards screen and sometimes it would be stuck at just the health bars. Outside of that one mode, everything else is fine. In a split pinch to wait 5 minutes but don’t feel like experiencing every second going by, this is the game. And I normally don’t write reviews. So each take that as you will.

by Brudda116

Dont get me wrong this game is good and very entertaining but there are some things that are quite buggy like the pvp mode,if you play several matches the game will interupt your game and tell who defeated you and who you won against,its absurd of how many matches go on without me knowing and then i have to wait until it ends but thats the thing it doesnt when im waiting for the game to finish it all of a sudden stops and the two players are just standing there awkwardly, PLEASE fix this problem cause it will be a huge problem in the future.

by BrandonTAdamsNoFace

I’m not sure what happened to the game the past couple of days. The game is quite fun and requires a lot of adds to watch to level up but the buffs are permanent. The past couple of days when the game loads, it shows who attacked you and the outcome with the movement in the leaderboard and just stays on that screen with no availability to play…. Does an update need to happen to fix this?

by Briezerbby

I think the game is pretty fun. Love the permanent upgrades. Only problem I’m currently having is during the pvp boxing matches, none of my punches are landing anymore. Like I can’t even hit the upgrade or walls that pop up during the matches. Honestly the only thing deterring me from playing right now.

Ads sometimes

by Mastaking90

I’ve been waiting over 2 hours to play because players keep attacking and it’s only going through 2 fighters each time and then I would have to restart the game

by Doomboxxx

I play this a lot and finally capped out at level 317. Put a lot of time in this game, very simple, very fun

by Mr Bobabooy

I won once and even animal revolt battle simulator has less ads and the first ad I watched was Atleast a minute or more long

by OgPra

This game is pretty fun! You have to watch ads to get upgrades, but all upgrades are permanent which is awesome! Few issues with the game though, you can watch ads to level up the gates so that you get more years after punching the bags. I should currently get 470 years for passing through the third gate but I only ever get 300 years no matter how many years it says I’ll get, feels like false advertising to watch the ads and get the upgrade but then the upgrade doesn’t do anything past 300😕

by Eetoh

It’s simple and unlike most mobile games isn’t that easy other games I play are usually way too easy and have no challenge but this one is special

by 3keeyys

Its a super addictive game but PunchMachine freezes when u are attacked and u cant do anything even resetting your phone doesn’t work

by Vincent Santiago

I don’t know what you mean by the word

by Yahooo🧛🏾

I was on a cruise for 5 days and this was the only game that really entertained me. It has pretty good graphics and runs smoothly for me. I also love how many levels and upgrades there are! Its such a cool game. And it definitly worth the download!!

Hi I’m not sure if you are the right people to reach out to for this. I am a pretty avid player of this game. (Past the angel skin). I have noticed a possible bug that really bugs me.

The flying glove upgrades are supposed to be permanent but I have noticed that after one game after I upgrade them the upgraded version disappears and they revert to the base one. If you pick up a flying punch in game it then goes to how it should be +1 if that makes sense. Please get back to me here or let me know where to submit this problem.

All together the game is exactly what it advertises and actually has a good mix of ease and challenge. Well done.

Thank you,
Sean Kelly
