This game is a Metroidvania 2D action adventure genre that a nameless knight explores the underground world and figure out the secrets of the ancient insect kingdom that suffered a disaster. Hollow Knight is a famous and successful game since its release on PC. So, I just bought it immediately when it was released on Nintendo Switch. I didn’t have to hesitate to buy it because even it contains all DLC. Personally, I have more fun to play a portable mode than docked mode of switch and, I had thought that it was perfect.

I was most impressed with the world of beautiful colors and a concise combat system, and it was interesting. The world reminded me of the Ghibli's the Castle in the Sky.
