SeekerAdventure Time: Pirates of the Enchiridion
High seas RPG Adventure Time: Pirates of the Enchiridion brings some of the joy of the TV show to a kind-of open world RPG. It’s a good game for beginners, and we get a small taste of how great exploring the show’s world and quirky characters could be. but the lack of challenge and options will probably bore veterans. The sad thing is that Adventure Time is a special show because its humor appeals to fans both young and old, but this game seems made exclusively for the former.

Many companies have attempted to use the Adventure Time licence to capitalise on the success of the show. Oftentimes, the whole point of the series is missed when developers misplace the humour or, worse still, the actual adventuring. Choosing a template that combines exploration platforming with RPG elements and turn-based battle systems appears to deliver both of these integral points, finally hitting the nail on the head. This is Adventure Time; come on, tell your friends.
