Hello, This is mashu.

I will be introducing Hollow Knight.

Please stay with me until the end.

Target of this article

The main targets are the above, but I can recommend this game to all gamers, so please read to the end!

Game Outline

This is a game that I’m sure you’ve heard of or seen the visuals of.

Exciting PV

This game is one of the most famous 2D action games in the world, and has been highly acclaimed. Please take a look at the official PV first!

Isn’t it really exciting!?

“The Knight” who has landed in a mysterious place

Somewhat dark atmosphere

Cute insects living in such a world

Music that will tickle your adventurous spirit

This alone is enough to make you want to play the game, but I will also mention the gameplay.

Please enjoy the Hollow Knight soundtrack to accompany this article.

Isn’t this genre hard?

As you can see, this game is a 2D side-scrolling action game with Metroidvania and Soulslike characteristics.

You may have an image that this type of game is difficult.

Well, it is true, but this game has a very good level of difficulty, and you can play to the true end of the game.

For example, the “Soul System” is a means of recovering HP. Souls are accumulated by attacking enemies and can be used as a resource for either magic attacks or recovery.

＜But don’t I have to attack to accumulate souls?

That’s right. But don’t worry.

This is exactly where the difficulty level is well-balanced.

There are weak enemies that are easy to defeat and strong enemies that are hard to defeat and by feeding on weak enemies, you can defeat strong enemies!

For example, if you fight this enemy and your health is at 1, you can recover and move on by poking this enemy in front and behind you.

I think this “Easy Trial-and-Error” has an impact on the difficulty level of this game.

Of course, there are also fast travel and respawn points placed throughout the game so that moving around the map is not a chore.

Various Strategies

This game also features a variety of actions and charms that can be combined to create a variety of play styles.

If you’re getting too close to the enemy and getting hit, you can add a charm to lengthen your weapon.

You can make the charge attack stronger and use a hit-and-run strategy.

Combine charms to unleash a special soul attack.

In addition to dash and charge attacks, soul attacks, you can combine over 30 charms for your adventures!

Challenge the End-contents

This game has several difficulty (Proficiency level of players that can be reached) levels like

・Beginner can reach to First-End

・Intermediate can reach to True-End

・Senior can reach to Achievement Completion

So it is designed to be enjoyed by both those who are good at action and those who are not.

In particular, completing the achievements is incredibly difficult because it requires clearing the “Boss Rush” and the “Hardcore Mode,” which is non-revive mode.

The boss rush is also very challenging, not only because of the mode in which the players defeat the bosses in order, but also because each boss has a graduated difficulty level!

I think it’s okay to start with “cute”

The most important feature of this game, “cute.”

It is rare to find such hard gameplay with such cute characters.

This game also has a wide variety of goods, including figures, apparel, pin badges, and many other items.

Here is a list of links where you can buy goods.

conclusion

Thank you for your time. Did you get the appeal of this game?

With this in mind, I introduced this game.

I hope this article will encourage even one more gamer to play!
