  • Boxing Star – PvP Match 3 takes the popular sports sim to the world of puzzles
  • You’ll duke it out with others by solving match-3 puzzles, racking up combos and scores
  • Is it set to be a knockout or just a low blow? Let’s dig in!

As an old-school gamer with a soft spot for arcade classics like Punch Out!, I must admit, I was initially skeptical about Boxing Star – PvP Match 3. However, after giving it a swing (pun intended), I found myself hooked to the rhythmic chaos of this unique spin-off.

The action-packed sports simulator Boxing Star has garnered a substantial following, reminiscent of classic series such as Punch Out! However, like many successful franchises, they’ve ventured into the realm of puzzle games to attract a wider audience. Luckily for enthusiasts, Boxing Star – PvP Match 3 is far from a casual adaptation and is currently available on Android and iOS devices!

In Boxing Star – PvP Match 3, as anticipated, you engage in a challenging puzzle competition. Basically, you face off against another player, aiming to create combos and achieve high scores using conventional match-3 mechanics. These results are portrayed as your character avatars delivering punches to each other’s virtual faces.

Instead of the typical match-3 games that usually feature a friendly setting such as home renovation or garden decoration, this version, known as Boxing Star, leans more towards an adult-oriented theme, making it quite distinct from its counterparts.


Low blow

It appears to me that many popular match-3 games, such as Gossip Harbor and the ever-popular Candy Crush, tend to cater to a more relaxed player base. These games are generally harmless and free from violence.

Compared to Boxing Star – PvP Match 3, it appears that the developers are trying to bring the thrilling atmosphere of boxing into the puzzle genre. While I appreciate the novelty of this concept, there seems to be room for improvement in terms of the game’s polish. It looks like they’ve reused some models and animations from the standard Boxing Star, and the match-3 gameplay follows a fairly generic format.

After experiencing the thrill of Boxing Star’s PvP Match 3, consider taking a break and exploring some of the fantastic puzzle games available on both iOS and Android. My personal list of the top 25 best puzzle games has been meticulously curated and is regularly updated to ensure you have the freshest options!
