Critic Reviews for Knights of Pen and Paper 2
I wish I liked Knights of Pen and Paper 2 a lot more than I did. It has a lot of charm and heart — I can see it in the gorgeous pixel art and in all the neat jokes and references built into Paperos. But it just isn't very fun to play. If you happen to be in that cross-section of being both a tabletop player and an RPG fanatic, it might be worth checking out. For everyone else, however, your time is better spent elsewhere.
Knights of Pen & Paper 2 is an RPG tabletop game where the imaginations of the dungeon master and players come to life in a great and original take on the experience.
Knights of Pen and Paper 2 checks all the right marks for proper port from smartphones to PC including remastered graphics, mouse and keyboard support, and including all the previously released content for a single, low price. Unfortunately, the game can't completely avoid its roots as a smartphone game with gameplay that is best enjoyed in short spans. While it might not be the most complex role-playing game available, it's a worthwhile and entertaining purchase for players eager to set out on a casual fantasy adventure.
Overall Knights of Pen & Paper 2 is a well made turnbased RPG with a great balance between depth and simplicity. This is couple with often hilarious dialogue that is guaranteed to make you chuckle your way through this often beautiful retro adventure.
A heady mix of expansive story, engrossing combat and silky gameplay makes Knights of Pen and Paper 2 a must for RPG fans looking for adventures on the go.
It may follow the same formula that its predecessor introduced but Knights of Pen & Paper 2 Deluxiest Edition managed to refine everything to be much more streamlined, fulfilling, and even humorous, too.
Overall, Pen and Paper was a mixed experience. I enjoyed the concept of the game, the fact you have adventures and shenanigans all while sat at the table.
Too much is simply identical to before, and the biggest problem remains that this is a game that’s only fun in small doses
