My genuine review take of Drunken Fist is it’s funny for sure, but it does get old fast. It gave me quite a few quality laughs and I think its proclamation of being a ‘totally accurate beat’em up while drunk’ is genuinely honest. For a $3 dollar price tag on Steam, I absolutely think that’s exactly what this game is worth, but I wouldn’t pay 7.99 for the base PS4 version.

About
Street fights have never been funnier! Drunken Fist is a physics-based brawler that never takes itself too seriously. Take the role of a drunk guy as he looks for food and collects booze across 7 challenging stages. Along the way, you’ll cross paths with jocks, hipsters, punks and a motley bunch of other enemy types, each with their own unique combat styles.

Critic reviews
- 4.6Drunken Fist hides wonky physics, hard to use controls and a toilet humour behind the set-up of being drunk, and while it’s passably funny for a short while, it’s also not something that will be on the playlist for more than the hour or so it’ll take to beat the seven levels.
- 2.0How best to sum up Drunken Fist? This is a game that you'll have a laugh with for ten minutes before never, ever playing again. Once the physics-based slapstick humour has stopped being funny, Drunken Fist has nothing else going for it. We might still be at the start of 2021, but I reckon I've already played the worst game I'll play all year.
- 5.0As it is, Drunken Fist is a nice proof of concept, but little more than that. If you can find it on sale (the game has been available on other platforms for over a year now, so that shouldn’t be difficult), you can probably glean a couple of hours of enjoyment from its shambling nonsense.
- 2.0Drunken Fist is built on a very thin foundation, executed in poor taste, and poorly created in general. It’s very much what I imagine a drunken brawl to be like. Slow, painful and not particularly enjoyed by anyone.
Gamer reviews
I bought that game for the Switch for around 10$ on Nintendo eshop and I deeply regret it.When you look at the trailer it's funny,it made me laught, but you cannot grasp the real feeling of the game as they make it look so easy to play.Very vulgar game. Obviously, in the game you're a drunk man and the controls are terrible and it's not easy to land a shot on your enemies or even to move around, but because your a drunk man it makes some sense. I think they abused of the rumble on the joycon as it is annoying because it goes off so often I played a lot of games lately and that one was really difficult to like and that's why I rated it so low. Even if some will probably like the game I don't recommend it .
