Dumb checkpoint locations, Repetitive bash and jump action, Knack's bland personality
Knack is a missed opportunity. There are plenty of good ideas here, from the super-sizing of Knack himself to the collectible gadgets, but few are exploited well. Then there's the unexciting level design, Knack's lack of personality and the irritating c...
