    Pato Box is an absolutely interesting game with a lot of content. For fans of Punch-Out !! it is a must buy and even for non-fans, I think it is worth taking a look at this game, either by it's artistic style reminiscent of comics or by it's gameplay.

    A great stylized game with a fun and ridiculous plot. You get to be a buff boxing duck who destroys things, what more do you need to know? I definitely recommend this game, especially if you're a fan of the kind of weird.

    A lovely game. There’s a ton of charm and I still can’t get over how well the developers used this monochrome aesthetic. The comic book style and the kickass soundtrack are icing on the cake.

    Pato Box takes the Punch-Out!! fighting style and gives it a Madworld aesthetic, resulting in an unexpectedly wonderful combination. The 3D sections aren't the most exciting, but the boss fights more than make up for that. Pato Box offers an intense challenge that will put your gaming skills to the test, but also potentially frustrate you at the same time.

    Pato Box is definitely a game worth checking out. If not because Nintendo haven’t provided the world with a new Punch-Out!! game in nine years, then definitely because it’s a weirdly beautiful game starring a boxer with a duck head, who has been wronged by a large corporation and seeks revenge against a bevy of interesting and unique characters.

    Pato Box is far from being a perfect experience and it is clear that it lacks polish in some areas. Fortunately, Bromio did a lot of things right so Pato Box stands as a fun and enjoyable twist to the Punch-Out!! formula.

    A Punch-Out!!-esque boxing arcade with a strange yet entertaining Story Mode and a quirky cast of characters.

    Pato Box not only succeeds in recreating the Punch-Out!! boxing experience; but it also pushes the formula further with a very good adventure mode, a great graphic style and a group of strange, unique characters.
