It was released in July 2018 for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Windows, and Xbox One, on Amazon Luna in December 2021, and on Google Stadia in March 2022, and is based on Cartoon Network's Adventure Time television series.[1][2][3]

Overview

Finn and Jake wake up to discover that the Land of Ooo has been mysteriously flooded, and set off on an adventure to fix the flood. Players use a boat in open-environment sailing to reach the main areas of the game, where RPG turn-based combat occurs. The game also features an occasional cross-examination minigame, where Finn and Jake must interrogate villains, in "good cop, bad cop" fashion.[4]

Development

The game was announced on December 14, 2017.[5] A trailer for the game was released on April 26, 2018.[6]

Reception

On Metacritic, the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch versions of Adventure Time: Pirates of the Enchiridion have respective scores of 62%,[14] 66%,[15] and 50%,[16] all indicating "mixed or average" reviews.

Giving the game a 5.8/10, IGN called it "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."[4]
