Our take on Bare Knuckle Sandwich
The boxing premise is only part of the described activity: the game also includes city exploration, conversations, friendships, and side jobs between fights. Players expecting the experience to stay entirely in the ring may find its broader story structure a notable part of the package.
What is Bare Knuckle Sandwich?
Bare Knuckle Sandwich is a 2D boxing game about Gunner, a young man who enters an underground bare-knuckle circuit while looking for direction.
He faces opponents with different fighting styles and tricks, using quick reactions, dodging, and strikes to progress through the city’s boxing scene. Between fights, dialogue and cutscenes follow his personal journey. Gunner can explore the city, meet locals, and make friends. Training does not pay the bills, so side jobs offer another way to earn money. Music by Torture World accompanies exploration, fights, and cutscenes.
