    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is without a doubt one of the best metroidvanias I’ve ever played. Amazing lore, challenging and well designed fights, and rewarding exploration. The true ending was great, and radiance was a really hard but rewarding boss fight.… Expand

    Un must have !
    On apparait, là, dans le corps d’une sorte d’insecte, perdu. Puis on prend un malin plaisir à parcourir ce vaste monde sous-terrain, à en découvrir ou redécouvrir ses multiples recoins et secrets, à maîtriser le maniement de notre personnage, à mourir et recommencer maintes fois des boss coriaces avec des designs variés. Et puis on commence à comprendre l’histoire de ce    Un must have !

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Anche se da molti considerato un capolavoro il gioco resta inetto e noioso anche provando lo per ore e ore di gioco non c'è modo di renderlo interessate e resta in gioco ad una fetta di pubblico davvero minima… Expand

    Didn't expect it to be so good. Very challenging but so much fun and the world and art is very creative. Frame rate on the Switch struggled a little bit in some of the optional extra difficult areas.

    Hollow Knight is an incredible achievement that combines smart game design, a rich world, and sharp combat, with an enthralling insectoid world and a story just begging for you to find it. Team Cherry’s title is a high watermark for Metroidvanias, as the satisfying abilities and countless collectibles add variety and meaning to exploration, rewarding every discovery. Yet, while the challenge is a rewarding part of the process, I do wish that the title made some concessions and shone a bit of light in the darkness for those first fledgling steps.
