Customers are saying

Customers have good things to say about Hollow Knight, especially its gameplay, music, and story. Many appreciate the overall performance, tight controls, and accessible price point. Some find the game difficult, particularly the bosses, and note that maps are limited until discovered. Despite these challenges, Hollow Knight is generally well-received.

    Purchased for my son, who hadn't heard of it. He really loves Metroidvania games and has very much enjoyed this game. I have not played it, but watched him a bit. What a beautiful game. Very happy with my purchase, and so is my son!

    This game is super hard but well made. The art is very eye catching with plenty to explore and learn. The curve to combat can be steep but it is worth trying to get better.

    This is by far the best Metroid Vania type game I have played. It has all the great aspects of a 2-d scroller and as you advance you have to revisit sections to lock more areas. Boss fights are fun and challenging..... all hinge on identifying the bosses fight patterns. I would say it is in my short-list for great games.

    If you're a fan of Metroidvanias, but like them on the difficult side, this game is for you. The game isn't overly-punishing, but it will test you with challenging boss battles and dangerous caverns to explore. On top of the gameplay, the visual presentation is beautiful and the music is also really well done.

    Hollow Knight is a fantastic Metroid-inspired game that does a lot to build on that formula. I was so excited when the physical release for this was announced and the game comes with a manual which is a nice touch these days. If you enjoy 2D Metroid you should definitely pick this game up, it is excellent.

    Is there anything i can I say about this game that hasn't been said already? Nope, but I'll say it here...WOW!! An exceptional game among any metroidvania fan out there. This game draws you right in from the start. Bought it digitally, and now physically, this is a must own for any fan of Hollow knight.

    My daughter loves the game. I got it for her for Christmas and she enjoys the puzzles that come with it. She enjoys the music so much, she found the sheet music for it online and started playing it on the piano one night.

    I was extremely pleased with what came with this copy of Hollow Knight. I thought for the price, they offered a lot. It includes reverse able cover an instruction manual and a map also of course the game cartridge. Best Buy is the only place to get new copies and for 35$ it’s well worth it.
