Hollow Knight

THIS GAME IS SO SO SO GOOD ITS AWESOME AND VERY FUN TO PLAY ALONG WITH STUNNING VISUALS AND PLEASING SOUND DESIGN AND TO TOP IT ALL OFF IT HAS AMAZING MUSIC AND GAMEPLAY AND TO THINK IT WAS MADE BY SUCH A SMALL TEAM IS AMAZING THEY DESERVE SO MUCH RECOGNITION FOR THEIR WORK!!!!! THIS GAME IS BY FAR ONE OF MY FAVOURITES AND WILL REMAIN THAT WAY FOREVER YOU MUST BUY IT OR YOU WILL SUFFER THE CONSEQUENCES OF NOT HAVING THE BEST GAME OF 2017!!!!!! do not pirate the game or you die. you must give team cherry the money they deserve for their awesome project.

HOLLOW KNIGHT (2017) is one of those games that really have a lot going for it. It's challenging, adventurous, artistic, unique, intriguing, dark, creative, and all very chill. It's a very fun fantasy / adventure sidescrolling platform game, with many vast areas to explore. While it may appear simple (design, art style, characters, minimal story) there is much to do, though it's not always clearly pointed out. This isn't a game for the close minded, but rather one for players willing to ponder and explore.

When playing this game you don't always feel pushed to one direction or forced into questing, but rather can enjoy (or dislike, depending on your play style) an almost open world type of experience. The areas you are given to explore are pretty huge and there are many areas in the game. It is quite a long game oveall, making it well worth the money spent. I enjoyed that game pacing can be either faster or slower depending on your play style. The gameplay is definitely a throwback to classic platformers and really fun to play although it certainly gets challenging at times. It's a very fun game and I can't complain.

The game aesthetics itself are very beautiful, the art is unique and memorable and it has good music. Overall, I would definitely recommend this game to play if you enjoy a good fantasy adventure platformer game. Hollow Knight offers plenty of hours of play, as well as a challenge.

This game is damn brilliant. I remember buying the game and being a bit uncertain about it, as I had never played a metroidvania before and only a small number of platformers. This game destroyed my expectations. It has a brilliant combat system, smooth platforming, a killer soundtrack and lore for those who want it. It's difficult enough to be challenging but not so difficult that it makes we want to kill myself. There's still challenging encounters for those who want it and I can't imagine any way it could be better. This has managed to become my favorite game of all time and manages to make fighting a dung beetle fun. 10/10, now stop reading the damn reviews and go play it, go on, it's too good not to!
