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.

    I talked my spouse into getting this game after seeing how much a few of my friends enjoyed it. It's a well made, fun, challenging game with some imaginative world building and an intriguing story that will easily eat up several hours of your time in one shot if you let it!

    A beautiful game that nails atmosphere, music, exploration, and challenge in one go. A massive world that doesn't hold your hand or throw hours of explanations your way, the player is free to explore and discover in any way they want.

    This game is awesome, by far the best game in its genre and really, it’s in a league of its own. This game is mad difficult but worth the rewards in playing it. I’m so glad that they are coming out with a prequel or a sequel to this game. Just buy this game.

    If you are a big fan of metroidvania games, this is for you. Hollow Knight is an awesome game that would take hours to finish and when is done, there is still more to do to achieve 112%. It took me 43 hours to finish at only 106%. I would recommend it for anyone.

    I bought this game to find out there'd be a version with all the DLC available right this one. Oof, anyways, fun game about good kids doing good things in the local neighborhood park. 10/10 would recommend to anyone.

    The aesthetics are excellent, while the music and ambiance are darkly charming. There's a lot to like here. The only complaint I have is in controls. Not sure if it's my Switch or what, but there's a noticable delay between button press and action, and as an old school gamer playing a homage to the classics, that seems like a pretty substantial concern. But, if you adjust to that, and like the general vibe of the game, you'll find a rewarding experience here.

    This game is fun and a bit challenging. Boss fights are fun and some can be quite challenging to beat and will take multiple tries. I would 100% recommend for people that are into metroidvania type games.
