As one of two flagship exclusive launch titles for the PlayStation 4 (the other being Killzone: Shadow Fall), Knack has a lot of expectation to live up to as a definitive “next-gen” (now current-gen) experience. Console launches, however, are notorious for being a breeding ground of mediocrity. So…
-
Particle physics are great.
-
Awesome animation and visuals throughout.
-
Social features.
-
Accessible yet challenging.
-
The overt simplicity does not add anything to the genre...
-
...in fact, it feels like a step backwards.
-
Story falls apart more than Knack after a KO.
