Tags: Bandai Namco Entertainment; Mage Knight: ApocalypseAnother Make Knight Apocalypse review. GameZone has taken a look and decided that this shit aint worth more than 5.8 out of 10. The review starts with "Turn-based tabletop goes real time … which doesn’t work as well as you may think". It doesn't? I'm shocked!
Overall, the game is simply what it is … a hack-and-slash presented in a third-person perspective. Granted the developers tried to make the Mage Knight universe come to life, but in my opinion it would have been better left as a turn-based strategy game like the tabletop “real life†version of the game to not only keep die hard fans interested, but to really allow for some good strategy and combination options to make the game unique in it’s own right. If you’re a Mage Knight fan, you’ll see a lot of the characters and races that you’re used to, but may be disappointed in the overall end result so buy with caution.Better yet, buy something else.
