Revenge of the Boxer: Moscow Criminality

About

Revenge of the Boxer: Moscow Criminality is a PC game that mixes tactical planning with punchy action. You play a boxer wrongfully jailed for murder, forced to battle prison toughs and escape to clear your name. The game switches from strategic resource management to direct combat as you take down criminals, street toughs, and corrupt officials across Moscow’s gritty streets. Each fight is a test of timing and positioning, with over-the-top violence that leans into the game’s chaotic revenge theme. Set against 2000s Moscow, the game targets wildly specific foes like trolleybus drivers and street prostitutes, adding a darkly comedic edge to its crime drama. Developed by Alligator Friends and released in 2007, it’s a niche title that blends boxing, strategy, and vigilante justice. While not a mainstream hit, its unapologetic brutality and quirky setting make it a cult pick for fans of offbeat action games.
