7/10
The Knight Witch seems to occupy a unique niche on the Switch eShop - there's really nothing else quite like it. It's not the best shmup nor is it the best Metroidvania we've experienced, but its fusion of many core ideas in those genres is interesting and worthwhile. The adventure feels perfectly paced, the action is snappy, and though there are missteps here and there, they shouldn't disqualify The Knight Witch from your attention. If you're looking for a Metroidvania that mixes things up a bit - and you haven't been utterly burned out on the genre - we'd suggest giving this a look.

3/5 stars
All in all, I came away pleasantly surprised by The Knight Witch. At a time where so many games are vying for your time and attention, a neatly packed present of an indie, clearly made by a team that knows what it's doing and a quirk not found elsewhere makes for a great refresher. While I don’t believe it quite makes the cut as a classic, nor will it make many game of the year lists, it is still well worth your time. Personally, I think Super Mega Team is a studio I'll be keeping track of from here one out.

3.5/5
The Knight Witch is excellent in a lot of ways despite its forbidding difficulty, the kind of game you'll be glad to have beaten even if the journey to completion is sometimes a bit much.

nEEDS REFINEMENT
One: even if the game runs smooth, when it comes to real bullet hell (aka. the first boss, 2 min. in the game), your mouse will not move if you don't have high-end hardware. Two: if you die, you MUST restart before you can quit. Three: the spells after each casting goes to some random order, also none of the spells are explained in the game, so duh. Four there ARE instances where you just WILL loose a life, because the ENTIRE screen will be blocked by bulletts, so it's not (not just) about skill (and good harware).
