Mage Knight Apocalypse is a very poor game. Fans of the table top game, I tell you this is nothing more than a cash-in on the name. Your money is better spent on more packets of the collectable game. For people looking for a dungeon crawler, stay well away and maybe try out Titan Quest, that does everything MKA does, only is, y'know, good.
And the second is at WorthPlaying with an overall score of 4.0/10:
It seems clear that MageKnight Apocalypse wanted very badly to be another Guild Wars or Diablo 2 style action title. It failed. The few things the game does well (voice acting, the potion-brewing system, the item imbuing system) just cannot possibly hope to save what is, at best, a beta-release bundle of sloppy code. There isn't even an interesting or engaging narrative to draw the player in, instead you get to chew on a bland and generic (fantasy) story drawn straight from a genre that is so far past its due date that only the very best of the best can make any kind of impression. This is clearly not the best of the best. It's not even the best of the worst. Your money is better spent elsewhere.
