Plot
The dastardly Vex (a near-mythical being born of chaos and fear, no less) kidnaps Sackboyās friends and forces them to build his Topsy Turver.
This most deadly diabolical device will transform Craftworld from a fantastical land of pure imagination and innocent dreamsā¦ into a torrid, barren eyesore of nightmares. Ooh, the fiend!
But legend tells of a prophecy from deep within the ancient order of the Knitted Knights, Craftworldās legendary protectors. For only the brave, fearless, chivalrous, and yes, gallant can save the day in an almost too dramatic for words race against time stuffed with danger and peril. So much peril.
Set off alone or with your bravest friends on a whirlwind of capers across the snowiest mountains, the leafiest jungles, the wettest underwater realms, and the, uh, spaciest of space colonies.
Takedown Vex. Save the sack-folk. Save the day. Itās time to fulfill your destiny, Sackboy. From woolly wonderkid and hessian heroā¦ rise our Knitted Knight.

The player can jump, collect Score Bubbles, hop on Bounce Pads, and defeat enemies. It also appears they can roll around in a ball, throw weapons and cause platforms to appear.
