Mage Knight: Apocalypse Reviews

Mage Knight Apocalypse is a poorly executed take on a tried-and-true formula. The game has everything you'd expect from an action RPG, but none of it is handled well. The multiplayer is a hassle, the single-player is riddled with bugs and frustrating design flaws, and the presentation is sloppy. If you can somehow overlook all of these flaws, you could spend a lot of time going through all six chapters of the game with each of the five characters. But when you consider how many similar games of better quality are already available, you're left with very little reason to play this one.
While the review at RPG Vault provides no overall score:
Based on less than eight hours in the single-player campaign and none in multiplayer, which may not accurately represent the game as a whole, Mage Knight: Apocalypse has some interesting features and elements. However, these are counter-balanced by others that make it feel uneven. It's fine for simply bashing or blasting monsters, but beyond that, doesn't seem special so far.
