Hollow Knight

Game is super captivating. Awesome design. super dificult but fun. As soon as you get the second sword upgrade the game gets more fluent lol You'll die a lot, get frustrated, but every minute is worth it. Game is so good the sequel is a guaranteed buy. Gettting two copies for my self and family.

Everything about this game is phenomenal - the visuals, atmosphere, level of difficulty, combat, story/backstory, controls, bosses, map, upgrades, and so on. It's one of my top ten games of all time. Initially, I played it for 30 minutes and was not really drawn in. After a few months, I tried again and played for an hour, and then for another 300 hours. And then I watched Youtube videos about the backstory. Don't think, just buy.

This game is awsome and the developers deserve an applaud. Hollow Knight has meny merits, but one that stays with you most is probably the atmosphere. Dark, sad, weird, abut it manages to sneak in humor too. 10/10 for me.

I grabbed this game on steam first in a sale because I saw it being betaed a few years back. I'm not sure if it was the art style, the ease of the combat, the inventive lore or the variety of environments, but something about this game spoke to me. Now I have it through GOG and I keep it saved away on a thumb drive so I will always have it, regardless of my circumstances, because I will never get tired of this game.

Two or three guys and a composer? Jaw dropping. It's perhaps old news, now, but for anyone who hasn't played it and is thinking "Hmm, that looks interesting." There is a story that is well told. The music is nothing short of world class. My younger son wanted me to mention the charms, and my elder son (who is still struggling with The Radiance) wanted to praise the system of upgrades. My daughter (who is older than them and busy with school) wanted me to mention the grubs. For me, the golden combo of beauty, (re)play-ability, and story make this one of the most satisfying gaming experiences I've had (and I've been at it since Space Invaders). Looking forward to Silksong!!!
