A soulless sequel that changes very little from the previous game. An unengaging slog through samey environments coupled with some of the most unsatisfying and weightless combat I've come across. It's shocking that Japan Studio put this out. There are only two reasons I got through this, the first being I played this co-op with a friend. Secondly, we sprinkled some alcohol in there. There were some laughs to be had, but it certainly wasn't at the MCU tier humor this game has. At some point our brains became mush and just started laughing at pretty much nothing.

reading the words "soulless sequel" in reference to a Knack game is making me lose it

Maybe I'm being too nice on Knack 1! An equally dreadful experience. One that I went through solo because I knew nobody would want to trudge through it with me.
the only thing I know about this duology is that some people do legitimately think Knack 2 is a fun time, I dunno if I'm willing to test it though since they don't have much going on from all I've seen
