    One of the best retro homages of recent years combines the choicest elements of older 2D games with plenty of new ideas of its own – as well as a completely free expansion pack.

    This might be a free add-on; the content and fun is as good as the full story. The controls of Plague Knight feel so different and the surroundings feel brand new. This is a great excuse to play Shovel Knight: Plague of Shadows again.

    Plague Knight may be stuck in Shovel Knight's shadow, yet despite the lack of sunlight, he's able to shine in his own quirky way. [Issue #17 – September/October 2015, p.19]
