  • Summary: (Also known as "Magic Pengel 2") Players take on the role of Prince Pixel, who is on a quest to save his parents and restore Canvas Kingdom back to its normal form after an ancient evil transformed it into a labyrinth full of danger. On his quest, the heroic young Prince finds a companion,(Also known as "Magic Pengel 2") Players take on the role of Prince Pixel, who is on a quest to save his parents and restore Canvas Kingdom back to its normal form after an ancient evil transformed it into a labyrinth full of danger. On his quest, the heroic young Prince finds a companion, 'Box Dog', who aids and accompanies him in his many quests. At the start of his adventure, Prince Pixel finds a magic wand that allows him to bring anything he draws to life. The wand also enables him to temporarily take the shape of any enemy encountered and learn their powers. Prince Pixel can become anything the player draws and transform between three additional different creatures at any given time. As Prince Pixel advances through the game, he gets stronger, tougher, and more skilled. Players also benefit from experience by acquiring more drawing tools and abilities. By the end of the game, players can literally re-create any creature that they've seen in the game with an incredibly easy-to-use drawing program. The game allows the user to draw straight lines as well, so even someone with no drawing skills whatsoever can create just about anything. Players use their imagination to battle their way through levels or creatively solve puzzles. [HOT-B]… Expand

    It's fun, fresh and innovative, and much better than the predecessor, Magic Pengel. [June 2005, p.90]

    But this is more of a tool than it is a game, something that will allow you to create interesting characters and take them on a fairly boring adventure.

    For me, the simple combat takes a backseat to turning everything I love into a videogame character. [June 2005, p.95]

    The action in Graffiti Kingdom is brief and shallow, but creating and animating your own crazy creatures is easy and rewarding enough to make up for it.

    Had they found a way to make the combat in the game more enjoyable this could have really been a force to be reckoned with.
  6. Gamers' Temple

    An innovative concept wedged into a mediocre game.
  7. Game Revolution

    We’d like to give credit to Graffiti Kingdom’s designers for sticking with a daring concept, but then they went and surrounded it with a mindless action shell. Overly repetitive, simplistic gameplay dominates the landscape, and only the monster creator saves this game from running out of ink completely.

A betterThis game is one of the best creative game there can be in those days. The custom creation of your doodle monster is great! A better improvement since "Magic Pengel" release. I've played this years before, yet it's still quite great!

    Through longer the progress of your game, more and more actions for your "doodle" can be made. With also different parts is allowed. From charge attacks and tackles, to punches and kicking, etc.. Robotic like or humanoid doodles also can be made. Depending on the painter (player's) like, giving a more free will to these certain kind of games. It can be quite a blast playing this!

    Seeing through how the game actually is.. I tell you.. The story isn't that totally great. It's quite alright a bit. They concentrated a bit too much on the game play, and leveling though. The enjoyment mostly can be seen through the progress of your doodle.. Seeing how much it can be stronger than ever.

    Despite it's "cartoony" art made. It quite actually fits the game. Well for a 2005 ps2 game that is.. Still there are no problems with that.

    On top of all that.. I give it a 9/10 due to it's creative game play, and can be one of the most memorable games I've played so far since Atari. I suggest playing this, this is definitely worth it.    … Expand
