- Ever wished when you faked punched someone that a punch sound effect came out of your hand?? - With Fistpunch now it does! Just choose one of the four awesome hit sounds and then make noise in one of two fun ways. 1. The the fist on the screen or 2. Hold the device in your hand and move it or shake it. For maximum fun put a device in each hand! Get it now! - Self contained app, no internet connection is required to annoy people! DISCLAIMER: This app is a novelty app, like for fun, to mess with your friends and family. Please do not use it to harass and terrorize people! Also it is advised that you do not connect it to an external speaker device (or if you do keep it low). If you blast some of these noises really loudly, as with any sound, you could really damage your hearing! - Also, be careful to secure your device tightly in your hand if you are going to throw fake punches! We assume no responsibility if you accidentally hit yourself or others in the face or anywhere else, or accidentally throw your phone into a flatscreen TV or off of a cliff! Or do anything equally as stupid. :) Don't be an idiot, and don't hurt yourself or others. BrennanMoyMedia assumes no responsibility to damage you cause yourself, others, or to property! on this or any known or unknown planets or in the space between them. We warned you, don't be a moron! Thanks and have fun with it!

Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: VR Noir at 61% against FistPunch!'s 0%. VR Noir also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 5 days vs every 4 months). FistPunch!'s advantage is rating (3.8 vs 3.2). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
FistPunch! holds the better App Store score, 3.8 against 3.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: VR Noir has 41 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of FistPunch!'s written reviews are positive against 61% of VR Noir's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
FistPunch! ships an update every 4 months, VR Noir every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on October 1, 2026 and October 10, 2026 respectively.
