Knack

Knack takes place in a fantasy world that uses mysterious artifacts known as Relics to power their machinery. Dr. Vargas, a renowned scientist, has discovered a way to create a humanoid creature called Knack out of these Relics, and he reveals his invention to a group of visiting scientists and political leaders. Recently, mankind has been facing trouble from the Goblins, led by Gundahar, and it's the hope of everyone that Knack will be able to address this threat. However, when the doctor, his assistant Lucas, and Lucas' uncle Ryder set out with Knack, they soon discover that the Goblins aren't the greatest danger.

The game saves at periodic checkpoints.

The game's controls are simple enough, but it's surprisingly easy to die on even the normal difficulty level. Playing with a second person on co-op can make things easier.
