May 3, 2018Penny Punching Princess brings a story about capitalism with a lot of humor along with a fun and challenging gameplay. It’s recommended for those who like 2D beat-them-ups that can be enjoyed in small bursts.

Mar 29, 2018Crazy, frenetic, fun: with this action RPG you cannot really go wrong. Fans of the genre will find their teeth, with a bizarre story, a level of challenge that's never banal and excellent possibilities for customization of skills.

Apr 11, 2018I wish the difficulty spikes weren’t as annoying because this is a fun experience with some good humour and an interesting gameplay mechanic.

Mar 29, 2018Penny-Punching Princess at the end is more like a dungeon crawler than a pure RPG. Who will be captured by the original gameplay of the calculator will have fun for 20-25 hours without overly perceiving the repetitiveness, but without the right incentive other players may get tired earlier.

May 17, 2018Penny-Punching Princess brings an interesting slant to the brawler genre, one that sadly can become fiddly and repetitive over time. As a fairly expensive eShop title (physical release plans were scrapped at the last minute), it’s difficult to recommend a purchase here, given what you could get for your money instead. Penny-Punching Princess is certainly not a bad game, but it’s not a great one either. One to look for in the sales then, where your calculator allows.

Apr 10, 2018Truly, Penny-Punching Princess feels more like an indie experiment than a full-fledged game and that’s totally fine. It’s fun at it’s core and the feeling of repetition can be kept at bay by playing in small bursts, making it perfect for its target consoles – the Switch and the Vita. With that said, I simply can’t recommend this title at the current price of almost a full triple-A game. I mean, there are a bunch of incredible games on the e-shop that aren’t even half the price.

Apr 27, 2018I appreciated that Penny-Punching Princess brought some new spins to the action-RPG genre and using money as a tool to fight is a fairly novel idea that could be explored more. The calculator is also a thematically brilliant idea in a game about capitalism and debt. However, the combat mechanics are problematic and play falls prey to unnecessary frustration and repetition.
