A Cute Quick Game About A World Ruled By Money!

PPP drops you in a world where money can buy you status and power. Yes that sounds like our world but no, this one is cuter and a lot more fun.
The game is an RPG and all the standard elements. But they come with a twist. While you can fight your enemies, wait til you realize, sometimes it's better to BRIBE your enemies. That's right, it's a game changer and makes the game different enough to be worth the buy. If you see it, give it a shot!

I had seen a little bit about this game but not too much, from the little I'd seen I decided to give it a shot since it looked like a fun fast paced beat-em-up. It is exactly that but the money and being able to bribe enemies and traps to gain the upper hand works really well and adds a layer of strategy to the game. The controls for the bribe can feel really clunky at times and I feel like the calculator part could be omitted but other than that I had a blast with it. It is a shorter game however, so I wouldn't say its fully worth the Original price of $40, but if you can find it on sale for $25 or less, you're in for a treat

This game is fun and has interesting ideas and game play that I have not seen in a game before. The fact I can bribe enemies is hilarious and I just want to keep playing!

This game is difficult. Not in a traditional sense, but it a way that can make it tedious rather than fun. During battles you get locked into little areas that can put you in situations that just feel unfair. The story is nithing special. If you can get to chapter 3 then the game does get better because you unlock a character that actually gives you some reach on the battle field. Overall i wish the game had more rpg elements that helped newcomers. 7/10

Average beatemup with a gimmick that doesn't work

I wanted to like this game because it has that NIS charm, but underneath, it's pretty repetitive. The idea is that you can bribe enemies and stage hazards by using money that you get from beating enemies, but the targeting for the bribe ability is very awkward and difficult, you just wind up running around in circles avoiding enemies that are chasing you while you try to bribe the one you want. I traded it in.

Great game but hard to recommend at full price. Now with the price drop it's a must have. Great indie game loads of fun and totally worth the price of admission now.

This is a very simple and fun beat'em if you can get it for cheap, its kind of repetitive but fun if you don't mind the grind it requires.
It kind of look like a mobile game as far as playing mechanic goes but the graphics are really good on the switch.

I have started the game but I haven’t finish it yet. The only proble I’m encountering is the control for the calculator. It has no fix button, you have to hold the left control to type in the amount and at the same time you’re fighting the enemies and while trying to avoid being hit. I think its ridiculous.

A fun fast paced top down action arcade style game.
Its more like those classic RPG games but has a definite progression path and story. So like a hybrid but def more arcade like IMO.
very cute characters with a cute story.

Crazy, frenetic, fun: with this action RPG you cannot really go wrong. Fans of the genre will find their teeth, with a bizarre story, a level of challenge that's never banal and excellent possibilities for customization of skills.

Penny Punching Princess is a top down brawler with a unique twist. You can use money to influence the game, from buying items to bribing enemies, it's central to the gameplay. The game does get repetitive after a while.

The basics here is you punch it hard enough until they can't get back up, and you'll be surprised how far you can get just by doing that, but eventually you'll hit a wall and you'll start learning the other mechanics of the game and you'll realize how much strategy is involved and how much management you need to progress further as a stronger character. It becomes like a hybrid RPG brawler which oddly works very well

This is a fun little game that can be challenging at times. The mechanics are slightly different than your average retro inspired game. Lots of fun here!

Modern Beat em Up

This game truly is as weird as it looks. The game play consists of top down hack and slash type action, destroying all who get in your way so you can get CASH MONEY. And you use that money to buy upgrades and do other cool things (like bribe enemies to help you). This is a good game to pick up on sale and has much replayability. Good music too!

good game but you will be repeating levels a lot. It is basically a beat em up. I kind of ignore the story and just play the levels.
