Knack 2 is an improvement on the first game in every way possible.

Leaving its predecessors legacy far behind, Knack has seriously grown up and become the platformer we deserved all along.

It’s not perfect, but it makes a compelling case for the character platformer as a genre.

Overall, Knack II is far more complicated and refined in comparison to the original title.

Sure Knack 2 has its share of issues, but it’s a definite step up from its predecessor.

Knack 2 is a sequel done right.

Mark Cerny’s sequel is one of the most ‘gamey’ video games I’ve played in recent memory and stands as a reminder of what I still consider to be the Golden Years of this industry.

Who would have thought it? Knack 2 is a genuinely great game.

In the absence of an epic tale, a torrent of doodads to collect, or some time-devouring crafting system—all the fixtures big business gaming says you need to survive today—Knack 2 just works.

Knack II fixes many of the problems of its predecessor, delivering a fun action-platformer worthy of giving this series a second chance.

Knack 2 is an entertaining platform game like those of yesteryear.

Knack II is more engaging than its predecessor, but there's still not much about this franchise that can make it one of Sony's defining original properties.

Knack 2 is a pleasant surprise that improves upon the majority of its predecessor’s faults.

Despite its shine, Knack 2 is bland — a well-polished bit of blandness, mind you — but one you could easily skip over.

Knack 2 isn't the game of the year we have been waiting for, instead it's just more Knack. Who asked for this?

On a technical level this is clearly a better game than its infamous predecessor, but it’s still nowhere near as fun as it should be thanks to its bland design and characters.

Knack 2 feels like a palette cleanser rather than a main course.

Knack II has the bones of a good platformer and a hint of charm but it just doesn't execute.

Knack 2 doesn't have exactly the same problems as Knack, it's just moved things into different places and ended up mostly the same.

Knack 2 is a significant improvement over the original, but still badly needs more interesting characters.
