There’s so much to love about this game, the art, the story, the lore, and the challenges. This game is fun and there’s tons to uncover. The game is both fun and challenging. One of my all time favorites

I heard so many good things about Hollow Knight that I couldn't imagine it would live up to the hype, but after playing it longer than any other game I own on Switch, I can plainly say that Hollow Knight is a fantastic Metroidvania style action adventure game with an interesting interconnected world that sucks you in and absolutely delivers.
The amount of polish that went into this game is astounding, especially coming from a smaller studio. The art style alone puts many other games to shame, the lore and world building keeps you coming back, and the tight controls make this sometimes difficult game never seem unfair. I highly recommend it to fans of the genre, and can't wait for the next game in the series.

Hollow knight is a very well crafted Metroidvania style game. I only have a little over three hours into it so far, but I’m already hooked. It has a fantastic score and environment that makes it genuinely exciting to explore and discover more about the world. It can be challenging, but is also very satisfying when you manage to overcome those challenges. Overall, I would recommend.

One of the switch’s best games. This one is really tough so be prepared for a challenge but it’s so well made that it’s worth it. It never feels challenging just to be challenging and the world is so beautiful that you’ll stick with the hard parts. All of the fighting, platforming and exploring flows so well through the well designed world and the soundtrack is impressive. Try this game

I truly love this game and had the pleasure of giving my sister this game for Christmas. I didn't realize the price difference between the physical vs digital game, but it's nice that you get a game card along with some cool things you don't get with the digital like game manual and artistic map.

Top metroidvania I've played and I've played them all. Tight controls, amazing visuals, stellar soundtrack, and a simple progression system. Must own for any indie fan

My son (8) purchased this game with birthday funds. He attempted to play it but found that it was too hard. It sat for two years, unplayed. PSN offered the game and I downloaded it for myself. In an attempt to bring interest back for the game he bought, I played the game. His younger brother (5) fell in love and became obsessed with the game. He wanted nothing more to play, watch, or simply talk about the game. I played the game through on the PS4 and later again on the PS5. Great metroid-vania game.

Simply amazing. The controls are tight and responsive, the art style is fitting to the story, I've always loved the metroidvania type games. My son loves this as well.

This is a great metroidvania with newer graphics, great sound, and great music. The game is huge. I put in over 60 hours and still haven't completed it at 100%. It is a great value.

Playing this was a unique experience. The bosses were difficult, but each lost helped me understand a little more, on how to defeat them. The visuals are so pretty and the gameplay is so much fun!

This is my first platform game since playing on the Gameboy Advance, and I instantly fell in love. There is a learning curve, but overall the game is challenging and engaging.
