I get it, you’re playing Bros Introduction to Gaming aka “Fortnite” all day like everybody else. Put down the controller for a sec. Lemme tell you a little secret. “Hollow Knight” deserves some darn attention.
Team Cherry’s game is only $15 on the Nintendo Switch, the preferred console for the game, dare I add. A little bit about the game, you play as a little dude braves the insanity of a lost, insect-fulled kingdom. As the world expands through exploration so does the game’s mysterious story. Buuut–the indie title really shines for these 3 reasons.
- In-Game Music – You know when someone tells you the game’s music is really good and you just sort of shrug them off because they are probably confused about what good music actually is? Well, the music in this game is really good! Lol. I’d like to think of myself as a sort of music connoisseur for tunes that are legitimately listenable and “Hollow Knight” has quality jams.
- Tight Tight Tight Controls – Did I mention the controls are tight? From slashing to dashing, “Hollow Knight” offers player-friendly button smashing that can’t be beat. It really allows for some incredible acrobatics from out of nowhere. Throw in helpful charms to increase combat fun too, forget about it!
- Exploration – The game somehow is able to usher the player through the absolute maze of a map without causing insane frustration. But rather, pure elation. This, in part, is owed to the genius map mechanic in “Hollow Knight.” Pro tip: find the map boi salesman before carrying on.
So, like, you can thank me later for this high-end recommendation later. Just play it, weebs.
You weebs playing this yet?
