Hey there everyone, and welcome to the third (and final) part of my Knack playthrough. So to explain why I’m playing this game (I’ve just noticed I always explain why I choose a game, why do I do that?), hours before starting this stream I got a notification that my PlayStation 5 was due to arrive the next day and although I didn’t fully trust it, the knowledge that the console came with a built in game designed to show off it’s controller (Astro’s Playroom) made me think of Knack, the game developed to show off the PS4’s particle physics processing, the big thing Sony were advertising. So I decided to play it, start the new generation by playing the very first game of the previous generation, because that’s how we roll here at TonyKM Towers.
In this final part of my playthrough I go for the last stretch of the game, as we race against Viktor to try and keep him away from the huge cache of ancient relics. We have the return of Stealth Knack, and we get to get Knack bigger than we have ever seen him previously.
Until next time…buh-bye!
