PS4: Portal Knights (505 Games)

Here’s what the expert jury had to say: “Portal Knights” is an action role-playing game set in a three-dimensional sandbox world. The gameplay is very reminiscent of “Minecraft.” Players build and destroy randomly generated block-based worlds, gather resources, craft items from materials, and battle various monsters. In the process, they travel back and forth between islands. Players must also complete various quests and continuously level up to prevail against increasingly challenging opponents. The elements are designed to be child-friendly, and the game encourages exploration, curiosity, and creativity.
