Rating: 6/10 - Okay but boring Someone recommended me Portal Knights as "Minecraft with a goal" but it just doesn't feel like it to me. The game works fine, but it's just not fun for me. What's Wrong: - Crafting and menus are annoying to use - Fighting is too simple and gets old fast - Quests feel pointless and boring - The big map feels like work instead of fun exploration What's Okay: - Graphics are fine - No bugs or crashes Bottom Line: Save your time and money and play something else.

baby's first Dark Souls, with an obligatory touch of Minecraft building systems. 8.5/10
it is very adventurous
1. You are a portal knight. 2. Your job is to go from portal to portal looking for some bad guy just because someone else didn't like him. 3. That is pretty much it...
It'a like Minecraft but it's a rougelike
My daughter and I love playing this game in split screen. There are so few games like this one left that this one is a gold mine. It is simple, adventurous, and beautiful in its own way. I would highly recommend!
Repetitive and boring gameplay
Adventure game This game has a sandbox concept like Minecraft, but the gameplay is more story-driven than creative. There are also modes for that. The solo mode is quite good and engaging, but unfortunately, when playing co-op with friends, the server lags and isn't optimal, making it less enjoyable. However, if you play solo, you won't have that problem. Perhaps the developers can help fix this issue to make the game more playable and comfortable.
It's been really fun, especially when you have someone to play it with. The DLCs are really nice, too. I've been enjoying the Druid class a lot. It's been fun shapeshifting into a variety of creatures and animals! Haven't gotten that far yet as only the first boss has been defeated. Regardless, this game has been really enjoyable and worth the price when you nab it for really cheap with all the DLCs included. Really not bad for 11$ on sale for the whole package!
very nice
