KNACK 

 

KNACK is the first Playstation 4 exclusive game Family Friendly Gaming is reviewing. Want to know something? It is the worst representation of the next generation on so many levels. KNACK is a huge disappointment. This home console game is boring, uninspired, and violent.

I know Sony pays the ESRB a lot of money, and maybe that is why KNACK is not rated ‘T’ for Teen. The excessive violence in KNACK is over the top. What was the ESRB doing? Counting all the donation dollars from Sony? They forget to mention language and enticement to lust issues that are also in KNACK.

This PS4 is the one offering Sony claimed was for families. Want to know something Sony? Fail. KNACK is an abysmal failure in terms of families. Maybe instead of paying the ESRB you should pay Family Friendly Gaming to educate you in what families want to see, and play. Just a thought there. Unless you want the PS4 to continue to be a failure in the eyes of families.

KNACK is extremely annoying in terms of collecting artifacts. You collect them to grow KNACK to giant proportions. Then you have to lose them to power something like an elevator. KNACK can be challenging when you are small. Once you get large this game is a breeze. So the difficulty level in KNACK goes up and down.

Secrets are strewn throughout the uninspired levels in KNACK. I noticed multiple areas would use the same design. Wow that made me feel like my money was well spent. Thankfully our readers can avoid KNACK, and save their money for something at least mildly entertaining.

The deceptive nature of the Playstation 4 continues thanks to releases like KNACK. I keep looking for something positive to report on this system. It is not going to be KNACK. I will keep looking for something good about the PS4.
