Abstract: Playing what is probably the surprise release of 2017, Knack 2, I'm left wondering, "Who is this game for?" Knack didn't exactly break any sales records and, for the most part, was a middling release for the PS4 launch window. So the announcement of a seq...

Drastically improved combat, Platforming sequences have been improved, Co-op play is a welcome addition, Unshakable framerate and 4K resolution, Better use of size changing mechanics
Weak and uninspired storyline, Knack is still a bland protagonist
While Knack remains an uninspired protagonist, Knack II's gameplay more than makes up for his bland character. Vast improvements in combat, visual fidelity, platforming, and the addition of cooperative play realize much of the potential the original Knack...

Surprisingly complex, satisfying combat, Solid couch co-op brawling, Those particle effects sure do look nice

Charming, and colorful. Bigger and more robust. Knack 2 is the game we were hoping the first game would be. And better yet, it's a perfect game for the young gamers in your life...

Looks and sounds excellent, Move set gets more varied and interesting as you go, Clever use of Knack's size makes for enjoyable platforming and puzzle solving
Gets off to a slow start, Some artificial padding leads to repetitive challenges, Heavily coop focused, making puzzles more difficult for a single player
