### 5/5 — Awesome time waster!

*2012-11-17*

When I first played this, I thought, "seriously, you just 'punch' the screen over and over?" But as I kept playing, I quickly became addicted to the Punch. I desperately needed to try to claim the top score position.  
This game is simple, yet highly addictive. And I like everything about it.
