Adventure Time: Pirates of the Enchiridion Critic Reviews

A good platform-RPG, through its difficulty needs some balancing. Perfect for the fans of the series.

In the final computation, the production manages to deeply respect the aesthetic and narrative canons of the original animated series, bringing players to discover an unpublished story but in which it will be easy to recognize the most iconic characters created by the good Pendleton Word in the now distant 2010.

Despite the fact that I’m not a big fan of the Adventure Time series, I enjoyed the game. It has some flaws, and there is way too much grinding, but it’s a nice change from what we usually play. If you enjoy some witty conversations and a little bit of mindless gameplay, then you should give Adventure Time Pirates of the Enchiridion a try.

One of the best games based on the Cartoon Network show, thanks to the faithful representation of the series' charming world and characters. While quite derivative, with features lifted from The Legend of Zelda series in particular, the game developed by Climax Studios can be a fun experience, granted the player manages to overcome some frustration due to balancing and design issues.

Adventure Time: Pirates of the Enchiridion is an enjoyable sail along the high seas that is ultimately hampered by being rough around the edges. The battle system and story are an enjoyable experience, but absurdly long load times, frame rate stuttering, a clunky menu system, and a poorly developed upgrade system hamper the experience. It's still an entertaining experience, and fans of the show will likely love it, but those looking for an incredible RPG experience here might be left a little disappointed in its squandered potential.

Adventure Time: Pirates of the Enchiridion falls short of being a great game and lands squarely in the land of being okay. Despite its flaws it is an enjoyable RPG that would be a great entry point to the genre for younger children who might be a little put off by the more complex systems in other games.

While it feels like Adventure Time, the adventure isn’t one that many will want to go on.

Adventure Time is a nice adventure just for fans. It lacks of a good combat system and have some serous issues on the technical side. The combat system it's not even engaging, becoming repetitive after few hours of playtime.

Whilst not the most challenging of games, it still offers fans of the show a chance to enjoy it in a different light. Gameplay can become laborious, though, and the world is more vacant than it should be.

A light-hearted adventure with classical JRPG gameplay features. Perfect for Cartoon Network series' fans, entertaining but WAY too easy for seasoned players.

The game’s animation and performance are lacking but its art direction is colourful, and the dialogue has the same infectious energy as it does in the show.2 Only die-hard Adventure Time fans should check this out.

Merely okay. There is little new here, but it’s functional enough that fans of the series will find much to enjoy as they explore the land of Ooo.

A charming license is stretched over a vapid RPG to ill effect. The fans, and the show, deserve better.
