Great game. You are going to get lost in the world of hollow knight. So i hope you are ready. The gritty art style is perfect for this game. And the game play over all is so much fun.

I was always skeptical on this game. I first thought it was going to be a childish game and BOY was I wrong! The graphics are absolutely amazing and the soundtrack sets the tone for each area you explore. Can be a little difficult at times, but that’s the beauty of a challenge.

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!

Boy am I sad to say I missed the hype train on this game. What an amazing game! If you like metroidvania with tight controls and combat this is the one!

As far as Metroidvania style games go, this game has it all: tons of exploration in a huge and beautiful world, tight responsive controls, a well thought out and intuitive upgrade system, a stunning art style, and an amazing soundtrack. You cannot go wrong with Hollow Knight and can easily sink 50+ or even 100 hours into this game.

Beautiful art style, with challenging combat.
this game one of the best metrovania games out in the market, along side Ori, Metroid Dread and Blasphemous.

This was a really spectacular Metroidvania. The visuals are stunning and the characters have personality. I loved exploring the world, however I do wish the power ups had been cooler. Each area was unique. Combat was difficult at time but not excruciatingly difficult.

Hollow knight is a fun game to play, and is very beautiful for a sidescroller with just the right amount of challenge to be exciting. The music is very relaxing, and it is a complete delight. Also came with a handy map as well as all the DLC. Well worth it for the price.

A fantastic and charming Metroidvania. Though the genre is now swapped with tons of games, this one is a stand out that fans of that type of game should have in their collections.
Has a much deeper and interesting story then you would expect.

Great game but hard on platforming
Also want to thank the Best Buy employee that went the extra mile to check for me behind because originally they said they had it available but when I got there it was not available but apparently they found an extra copy in the back I just want to say thank you to that employee we're going the extra mile

so far having fun with this game. Im not too far into it yet, only because I play multiple games and work a full time job with 3 kids.
the only thing I thought was kinda lame was you collect a form a currency by killing enemies and then use the currency to purchase items in the shop. well I was lost and was trying to find out where i was on the map, which i only was able to see a small portion of. come to find out i actually had to buy map identifiers from the shop. so to show my characters location on the map i had to purchase that, to show where save benches were, i had to purchase that.
I enjoy the grind to collect and purchase items for your quest, but something like the map i think would be a default part of the game.

The artwork, the music and the story of this game is top notch. It's definitely difficult. The "souls" thing and losing them when you die like in Dark Souls etc is a nice touch. Also like the ability to heal up using energy that you get from killing baddies. A good game for the switch.

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.
