Customers are saying

Customers commend Hollow Knight for its incredible gameplay, wonderful music, and creative story. Many players find the controls tight and the overall performance enjoyable, especially considering the accessible price. However, some players mention the game can be difficult, with challenging bosses, and that maps are limited until discovered.

    I really like this game and tbe graphics. I like choosing games that look interesting, and this didn't fail. Interesting game play and levels, beautiful graphics and hard to beat bosses.

    So I really really really love team cherry and what they have done with this game Hollow knight and even more so their sequel Silksong! I love the level designs (except the sparse benches), I love the boss fights, I love the tone/atmosphere, I love this game and I love silksong even more! I just had to buy a physical copy and I hope silksong gets one too!

    My son has been playing this game for months, he loves it, I bought it not knowing anything about it but it was a big hit- the graphics are dark and the story is good- lots of hidden things and ways to practice your fighting skills

    This is probably one of the best games I've ever played. The game itself is a lot of fun, with mechanics that build up little by little allowing you to gain new skills and reach new areas, the visuals are stunning and the music is hauntingly beautiful (now one of my favorite soundtracks to have as background while I work). I highly recommend this game

    I started playing this game years after its release. It's not what I'd usually go for but it was really enjoyable. It can get really difficult, but the satisfaction of winning is such a great reward. If I had more time, I wouldn't have been able to put this game down. It flows really well and there's no right or wrong way to progress in the story. The one thing I'd wish for would be a practice mode to revisit old bosses, but otherwise, this game is A1!

    Very long game for an indie title. Great 'Castlevania' gameplay with decently polished controls, style and theme. Early bosses are very difficult despite the cute aesthetic. This seems to be the key make or break element of the game and will determine how far and how much fun you have with it.

    Incredible game and considering that this physical edition comes with a map and guide book; it’s a no brainer to pay the premium and grab this over digital version.

    This is one my favorite games, of all time, The gameplay is awesome, the grind is thorough, and the feeling of accomplishment right up there with some of the best. The environment will pull you in, and challenge you. One of the best "metroidvanias" I've played.

    Bought this as a gift for my son and he's spent countless hours doing all the optional trophies for this game. It is an excellent 2D platformer, among the top 2 or 3 Metroidvanias in the last few years.
