    Considering reviewers unfairly shafted the first game why most people liked it it was to be expected reviewers won't live this game...That said as I already stated the first one was already a good and challenging game for the whole family. The sequel improves in all areas so I'd probably give it an 8 for singleplayer and 8.5 for coop gameplay. There aren't many games for all ages likeConsidering reviewers unfairly shafted the first game why most people liked it it was to be expected reviewers won't live this game...That said as I already stated the first one was already a good and challenging game for the whole family.

    I'll rate it a 10 here to counter the senseless haters.

    I give Knack 2 my first ever 10/5 its a knacksterpiece, and that's just for the graphics, don't even get me started on the heartfelt and beautiful story and mindblowing gameplay that puts all other beat em up platformers to shame.

    Knack was a flawless brawler but it lacked depth and story, and truely a blend of both gameplay and story. These issue have been addressed and platforming has also been added. With coop added as well the improvements are shining in this game as a game that defines a generation. No microtransactions, no dlc, a complete story. Cheaper than other games on the market on release.

    Glad they didn't leave this franchise alone. Deserves its place on the release calendar. Just as hard as the original. Sad some people have nothing better to do then give negative reviews to games they haven't played.

    Free game is the best game, and thats why Sony created this incredible game experience and gave it for free in multiple countries. Just as some guys in Splatoon 2 said, KNACK 2 THA FUTURE.

    Finally, Knack 2, babyyyyyyy! Super Mario 64? Screw that. The first Knack was evidence that a God does exist, and this is the reward for its faithful followers. How could anyone forget such memorable characters, like.... Boulder Man? Scientist Dude? Some Goblins (I think). Memorable story. The epitome of human innovation

    I think Nintendo really hit out of the park with this one. I can see this game not only getting GOTY, but also being the greatest game of all time until Knack HD comes out. 10/10

    KNACK IS BACK
    - Buy this game and play it with your sibling/friend/progeny
    - Be a part of a cultural phenomenon that will have people talking for years to come
    - Punch things and jump on platforms
    - Knack has it all, and then some. It's fun for the whole family!!!

    My surprise game of the year! I really enjoyed Knack 2 and besides Super Mario Odyssey, Knack 2 was my favorite platformer of 2017. The game looks great in HDR and controls are tight. A shame it did not sell better because it deserves it. The game is like 15-20 bucks now and it is well worth it.

    10/10 Knack is back BABY. HERE COMES THE MONEYYYYY! Game of the generation.

    In all seriousness, this game improves on the original in many ways. Better platforming, better co op, better combat, etc. It's worth a buy if you have someone to play with. If you love platformers it may be worth picking up too. It's only $30-40 depending on where you are from.

    Not great, not terrible. I had fun.

    It's a great beat em up/platformer. Something we need more. Less cinematic and more 90s simple and fun games
    Hopefully Sony will move to another project similar to Knack and make another 3D platformer that is about combat and mindless story

    There may be a disagreement about the first knack. But at least there isn't any reason to call it a NMS effect (pun intended) Knack 2 seems to bring in new varity in the lack the first edition brought us. The visuals seem more alive, and with the local multiplayer Knack 2 gives some of us the old nostalgia we begged for were many other games have dissapointed us.

With Knack 2 it's all about the graphics y'know that's what this is really all about, Knack 2 runs at 120fps in 8k and it actually looks so good several playtesters actually had fatal orgasms rendering them paralysed from the waist down. Knack 2 has a bigger world than GTA V and boasts 120 years of exciting tantalising gameplay. The game only takes up 2GB though because the developer of Knack 2, Mark Sony, managed to perfect his theory of file sizivity back in the cold war and it was never needed until now. Knack 2 is possibly the most innovative game since 1922 when Mario Bros was first invented by reggie. It really breaks the mold of game development. I think Knack 2 is the game of the year, obviously second to Super Mario Bros. 2. But Knack 3 though, that'll be the one. It is said that the ancient greeks first came up with the idea of Knack 2, Socrates wrote about it in his book: The Anthology of Knack 2. I've been waiting for a game like this in decades. With 1500 totally unique quests, the greatest video game storyline ever written, a soundtrack composed by Michael Jackson and Elvis working together with Freddie Mercury and the backstreet boys and the most thrilling and exciting gameplay of any game ever released, I'd want you dead if you didn't like this game.

    Fun little game by Japan Studio with a low budget. Doesn't deserve the hate it gets.
    Family friendly God of War is the best description, with a story that feels like the Uncharted series.
    I really hope they continue to flesh this series out in the future.

    April Fools Review #DashReviews #Knack

    Knack 2 is the hit sequel to the popular Knack franchise, the same franchise that helped revolutionize gaming when it first launched during the PS4’s early years. Does this squeal live up to the knacktastic original or is this franchise out of steam only after its second outing?

    The story is a masterpiece, plain and simple. You got this creature named Knack, which was made by a professor for some reason and in this squeal, another professor is like “Yea, I’ll just copy knack!” That the whole story I think, I can’t remember if there was more to it but that’s what makes this a story worth telling. The story is so simple its genius.

    The gameplay is just as wonderful as the story. You have three punches and a kick for your move set but watch out, Knack can jump too! There is also a ton of QTE’s within this game and everyone loves QTE’s. The gameplay is flawless and fun especially when you play with another person. Did I mention there was Co-Op because there is! You can experience this amazing game with your friends. This is a must play game thanks to a wonderful combat system and tight QTE controls.

    This game is a technical marvel thanks to how many Knack particles they are able to put on screen. Stunning Knack graphics throughout. The soundtrack is godlike, the best soundtrack I have ever heard in a videogame. Mark Sony really knows how to put a video game together because this game has it all.

    Knack 2 is unlike anything you will ever play in your lifetime. It breaks all expectations and delivers one of the best video games of all time. If you have a PS4, GET IT NOW! If you don’t have a PS4, get to writing those E-mails to Mark Sony and beg him to bring it to other consoles.

    11/10 “A Masterpiece”

    Pros:
    +Knack Graphics
    +Knack has a clone in the story
    +He can jump!
    +Mark Sony can do no wrong

    Cons:
    None

    Let me just say there are a good games and there are bad games. Then there is Knack 2. "It just falls into It's own category"- Rapping Gambeenie. The developers Nintendo, really wanted another success after their one hit wonder for the Dreamcast Super Mario Brothers 2. It was 43 years before Nintendo made another game. It was apparently supposed to be a sister game to The Last Guardian,Let me just say there are a good games and there are bad games. Then there is Knack 2. "It just falls into It's own category"- Rapping Gambeenie. The developers Nintendo, really wanted another success after their one hit wonder for the Dreamcast Super Mario Brothers 2. It was 43 years before Nintendo made another game. It was apparently supposed to be a sister game to The Last Guardian, but there are no records of this after the games announcement in 2007. Now the question is, does it hold up to the hype? Well I'm here to say... on some factors yes. Biased sources may say, "OH YEAH BABY."- Papa John. I'm here to say I did enjoy the story, it's nice but forgettable. The most memorable part is when you have to fight Eddie Murphy in his final form in the 2nd to final boss. It does end on a cliffhanger and ties in in well with the KCU. 10/5 - could've used a paws screen. Expand

    You guys, I have to admit something. I don't actually like Knack. It's just become this running gag, with the original joke being the Playstation 4 launch. All these games were on the PS3 and just as playable except for Knack. A game so technologically advanced, it would annihilate the PS3's puny hardware limitations.

All these games were on the PS3 and just as playable except for Knack. A game so technologically advanced, it would annihilate the PS3's puny hardware limitations.

    The game is a **** disaster. It's a 3D platformer with de-emphasized jumping. Do you know what that means? That means when Knack walks over to a gap, it turns into a cutscene of him jumping over it. Welcome to the game Knack.

    The gameplay consists of walking into an empty area, hitting a guy once, and then walking into another empty area and doing it again and again until the game is over. This game is a joke, and apparently Sony was not in on the joke.

    Knack 2, on the other hand...

The game has a lot of mechanics, the models and textures are fine, co-op is extremely entertaining and the hints are much more helpful than something like Uncharted 4. However, writing could really use some work since characters cut someone off while they are speaking to finish their sentences and it just gets old. Expand

    Отличная игра для ребёнка примерно 7 лет. Младшему 4 не особо справляется с трёх мерным управлением, а старшему (8 лет) очень даже понравилась. Игра красочная и в меру сложная. Присутствует и боёвка (без крови, кишок и мозгов врагов по всему экрану) и головоломки. Своих денег однозначно стоит. Отличный вариант для семейного досуга с ребёнком.Отличная игра для ребёнка примерно 7 лет. Младшему 4 не особо справляется с трёх мерным управлением, а старшему (8 лет) очень даже понравилась.

    In a medium where everything is John Wick, Knack 2 is Schindler's List. And just like that film, there were times when I wasn't sure I could keep going. It is a relentless emotional assault that I suspect will force even the most jaded gamer to feel empathy towards the robot lion thing

    The first Knack was a laughing-stock. The sequel kept the main concept but did everything else differently and surprisingly the result is one of the most enjoyable co-op platformers I’ve ever played. [12/2017, p.44]

    Knack 2, one of the least anticipated of Sony’s sequels, is quite spectacular and fun enough to make you forget about its stale, cliche-ridden script.

    Not a lot has changed here, so if you didn’t like the first game, you’ll probably not feel any more warmth to this one. If you did like the original Knack though, then this is more of the same and chances are you’ll enjoy it. Without the pressure of being a launch title, we can see the game for what it really is: a fun platform title that does plenty of things well, if very little that’s particularly ground-breaking.
