Gex / Sky Target / Clockwork Knight 2

[The Elite MYT]

The local shop has these available and I can either get Gex and Sky Target or Clockwork Knight 2?

Any advice? I've not played the original CK and I've not rally played much of the Gex series. I did play a little of one of the sequels on the N64 (it was meh), but that was so different in style that it probably doesn't compare to the original.

What are your thoughts? These will probably be the last Saturn games I  can get until around christmas time, so looking for something enjoyable and replayability. I've heard that they're all relatively short so desire to replay is probably more important!

Thanks!

It's really up to you tbh

Clockwork Knight 2 & Gex are both 2D style platform games
Sky Target is a spiritual successor to AfterBurner and, as such, plays VERY similarly.

I'd imagine Clockwork Knight 2 is the best of that bunch on the whole. How many are you planning on buying? All or just one or two?

If it's one, go for CK2. If it's two, go for CK2 & ST. If it's three...

well, I can get both sky target and gex for 40 euros, or clockwork knight by itself for pretty much the same price. So it will be either CK2 or the other 2. Can't really justify spending any more at the moment or I'd get all 3

Personnally, I prefer Gex over Clockwork knight.

Gex has great level design. Sometimes hit box is a bit weird and the difficulty is quite high but it's a good game.

As NGN says, Clockwork Knight 2 is the best of the bunch, so I would go with that. It's a fun and very playable 2D platformer. It's very short, however.

Gex is a great 2D platformer if you don't mind listening to repeated catch phrases and a few wacky level designs.

I've never played Sky Target but have heard it's very average.
