The game's design is rather nonstandard - there are health meters for the player and his opponent, and there are a number of toys in the machine, such as the revolving heavy bag/boxer, a small bag to punch, and a jump rope MiniGame where the ball jumps over a bit of wire (representing the titular rope). Because of this, pinheads are somewhat divided on its quality, with some enjoying its design and humor, and others believing the toys are the only real draw to the game. If anything, it's worth a play just to see what it's like.
