Knowledge is Power Reviews

by INgledang

This game had some good things going on at first. It’s great technology to have KnowledgeisPower connect to your PS4. And the character selection that involves your phone’s camera is good and cute. But when you finally get to the questions, they add in a bunch of silly features that allow you to slightly inconvenience your opponent, like making them “wipe” slime off their screen so they can see the multiple choice answers. It wouldn’t be so bad if that was all. I soon realized that every single question was from elementary school level. And it took 30 excruciating minutes to get through 10 questions because of all the repetitive, dumb fluff. They put a lot of work into this game, and it blows my mind that they squandered it all by putting no work into the question research. You know, the trivia part.

This would be a great game if:
1) There was an option to shut the announcer up, more than half the game is him talking for no reason
2) if the questions were actually challenging, or got more challenging as it went forward
3) If there were a way to turn off the extra attacks, because the person who is highest up on the pyramid has zero chance of winning when people are constantly bombarding you with debilitating things
4) if the pyramid level gave points to the person who got the answer right, not the fastest
5) and if the questions matched the categories....
it could be amazing if they actually tried to make it a decent, fair, and challenging trivia game

When I saw that this game was free for ps plus users I thought that I could play it with my friends online, and we would have a fun time playing trivia. But apparently you can only play on the same PlayStation in the same room. And to make things worse you actually have to buy the game, when you could just play it on your phone or tablet for free. I would never buy this game or recommend it to anyone else.

The beginning is very promising! Cute and quirky character selection and funny pictures. The topics are really awesome too!! But then it becomes really annoying since the game gives you the opportunity to sabotage EVERY SINGLE ROUND. It’s just very aggravating and doesn’t really allow for everyone to have the most amount of time.

This is a decent game, had fun with my parents and siblings but it loses all playability with no system to system connectivity. Not even giving this game away for free will help with that issue.

This game is really fun, but it is too hard when playing with many players.

When players answer questions, the guy who did it first gets much more than the slowest one. In a game with 3 players, the fastest gets 300 and the slowest 100. This is a fair scale of knowledge to speed. But with 6 players, the fastest gets 600 and the slowest 100. This scales speed far above knowledge. And it gets worse the more players.

In the finale, points are converted into steps, but there aren't nearly enough steps to make this work. It ends up being that the guy in first place only has a head start of about 3 or 4 steps.

With 3 players, the fastest player goes up 3 steps. But with 6, the fastest player goes up 6 steps, allowing them to scale the entire pyramid in only a few questions. And the slowest players don't accelerate nearly as fast. With enough players, I believe it is possible that the fastest player can scale the ENTIRE PYRAMID with only one question.

This makes it so that the fastest player wins. If you aren't fast, or if you allow down, you are left in the dust. But the game is about KNOWLEDGE, not speed.

Fun game, never seen the same question twice and allowing up to 6 players is perfect for family play.
I do wish they’d update this version instead of just making new ones (decades) as some of the streamlining in the newer one greatly improves the game. Also, the characters/selfies are definitely better in this version.

Super fun concept and design. Questions are too easy, hopefully updates includes harder difficulty settings.

We play it every Friday, it’s a fun competition. Only thing is it gets a bit repetitive. Not in questions, those are always different, but the Challenges and the Pyramid at the end are a bit boring after multiple plays. Over all, good game. 👍

If you and your family are bored and want to couch party, this is the game to get. The final round takes a long time if you don’t have very many players...only reason why I didn’t give it 5 stars. But, it is certainly enjoyable overall.

Dear goodness please add a skip button so we don’t have to listen to this announcer FOREVER each time we play!

Me and my brother had a blast playing this it’s so fun and never gets old! Totally recommended for bored groups of people and family’s!

I play this with my family and it is so fun if u are looking at this and are thinking about buying it know that it is for the PlayStation and the game on the PlayStation it cost money but if u have PlayStation GET IT NOW

by Qweryachinti

The questions are hard and easy it’s perfect

by NubianGb

Great party game! Luv it, just wished there were future updates since a lot of the questions are pretty easy. Also, it be great to add your own questions like in That’s You!

by Kdbstzgd

Ok the game is really good, but one question asks what continent was the Maya civilization part of and the correct answer is North America. The civilization began on the Yucatán Peninsula which is part of Mexico and Central America which is all part of North America. South America is not the correct answer.

I absolutely love this game. It’s the best drinking game but the only thing I would change is adding a thing to keep all the scrolls you win to keep score because my friends and I get very competitive

by BetterDays333

My wife & daughter and I play this game and love it. Especially my daughter who keeps winning 😡🤣. She plays trivial pursuit with us and doesn’t do well so she gets a real kick out of beating us on this game. I hope they continue updates to this game cause it’s fun for whoever plays. Highly recommended!!!!

Please guys on the finale where we go up the steps I wish it wouldn’t be who guesses first but more like who gets the question correct. It would also make the game last longer which means more fun, some more suggestion I wanna add are that maybe if you answer the question wrong you go down 1 or 2 steps this would prolong the last level and make it way more fun.

I love this game for parties. We have issues connecting phones using WiFi, but the hotspot feature works great. There are a very eclectic group of questions. And the category voting is a great feature.
