    The game is different. I like it a lot. Graphics, sound, and story are there, but the game can be difficult, even on easy. It is also very appealing to the eye. I give it 4 stars and not 5 because of the difficulty in gameplay.

    If you live 2D games, this is the one to get. I’m 35 hours in on 1 run and I’m nowhere near the end. So much content and areas to explore

    This game is amazing. All the DLC is excellent too. The game is challenging and fun. You will fail multiple times at first until you get the hang of fighting in the game. You will spend hours just exploring every nook and cranny of the map. The characters in the game are great. There are many upgrades and different endings. I would highly recommend this game.

    Hollow Knight Review

    If you are looking for a good quality Metroidvania to play, then you have found one. Hollow Knight is filled with a lot of personality, and will make you want to keep exploring the depths below, even after several hours of gameplay, and you are given several different ways to do so. The only real negatives about this game, which are minor, is that there are many times where the nearest bench (in game save spot) is quite a ways away, and often in inconvenient places, and, while there are a variety of different locations, the art style makes them blend together in such a way as to make them all feel very "same-y". With everything being said, if you enjoy games such as Metroid, Castlevania, Bloodstained, you will almost certainly be sure to enjoy this.

    i thought of this game as pretty cool, only problem is theirs like literally no map, until u get it and the location of where your at, which makes it very difficult to play, but when you do get the map and such it makes it all so easier, this game can be a lil repeat also, same stuff but atleast theirs different actions and such its an alright game!

    This is one of the only ways to get Hollow Knight completely on the cartridge (with all the DLC pre-installed, if I remember correctly). I always wanted to get this game, and physically too, so I'm glad it was ported to the Switch. Game runs well, and is just as snappy and accessible to play on the Switch compared to Xbox and PlayStation.
