Punch Club

Punch Club is a fighter sim/tycoon style game where you take the reins of an aspiring fighter with a troubled past. You direct his training and lifestyle as you progress through his career as amateur fighter and unravel a mysterious storyline. The fighting mechanics are automated, but you guide your fighter's progress and tactics. It has a great looking retro pixel art graphic style akin to many of the great games of the SNES era. Part of its charm is all the references to cult favorites and pop culture.
