Adventure Time: Pirates of the Enchiridion Reviews
Despite it's solid core mechanics and efforts to be faithful to its source material, Pirates of the Enchiridion is bogged down by poor pacing and various technical difficulties.
If you're looking for something a little more laid-back that's likely to put a smile on your face, then you can't go far wrong with Adventure Time: Pirates of the Enchiridion.
Good adaptation of TV show Adventure Time!. It's a great experience for the fans of the animation, although technical shortcomings can be quite problematic.

Adventure Time: Pirates of the Enchiridion is a great introduction to turn-based combat for those who need such a thing.
Adventure Time: Pirates of Enchiridion is probably the most simplistic RPG we've seen in some time. Fans of the Ooo world will find some fun, but mostly because of their love of the universe and not because of the qualities of this particular videogame.

While definitely not a perfect game, Adventure Time: Pirates of the Enchiridion is the best Adventure Time game so far. It’s recreation of Ooo is faithful to the look and feel of the TV show and with the original cast on board doing the voices it feels like an interactive episode at times. It takes characters we love and puts them into a fun turn based RPG that is easy for younger players to learn but still deep and entertaining enough to keep older players engaged throughout its 8-10 hour experience.
Adventure Time: Pirates of the Enchiridion might be appealing to a younger audience that wants an RPG without too many advance systems to over-complicate things, but if you're looking for a deep role-playing game set within the land of Ooo, you'll be sorely disappointed. On top of that, all of the performance issues with the Switch version make it incredibly difficult to recommend.
All in all, Adventure Time: Pirates of the Enchiridion is merely okay.
It's also my understanding that the Adventure Time true fans are sticklers and won't accept any mistakes. To them, I can only say that Pirates of the Enchiridion could have been much worse and that they should be grateful that at least they have something to play that's not half-bad before the tenths season arrives.
Adventure Time fans deserve better.
I recommend this release for the gameplay, but I really hope the next release from the team will be less buggy than this because even with the latest patch – months after the game's release – this is still the buggiest game I have played on my PlayStation 4.
