Hollow Knight is a fantastic, beautiful bugvania game with gentle nods towards Dark Souls -series.

Controls work like they should, the world is vast and full of secrets, bosses and challenges (also secret bosses). There's tons of lore that you collect in bits and pieces, mysterious and funny characters a plenty, in a well crafted world that makes you go aww at all the pretty colors and glitters. But my god the game is sad in every good way. Like when someone dies in anime and you didn't invite any ninjas to cut your onions.

But be warned, the game is hard. The bosses don't give a slack, they make mince meat out of you. Some areas are tricky to move in and you will face death. You will get stuck. The arena will kick your a$$ and the next boss wipes the floor with it. You will (almost) cry.

But. But. Butt. Yeah, last one is butt.

The basic playthrough is very doable even for the beginner and most of the difficulty comes from optional areas and bosses. There are situations when you might feel that this isn't what you signed for but in case you're casual player just pick a guide from the net of inter to rebuild your character for the fight. Some situations feel worse than they really are and using the right gear might just do the job.

But now I'm just rambling. Hollow Knight is not a good game. It's a great game. 95/100. Yeah, it's that good. Even the music is fantastic and I tend to listen the OST while I write. Pay the full price. Sales are for the weak.

Butt.
