Cherry team created the critically acclaimed Metroidvania action-adventure Hollow Knight. The game takes you into the mysterious underworld of Hallownest, known for its hand-drawn art style, challenging combat system, and creepy atmosphere. It is one of the most beloved indie games of all time thanks to its combination of story, platforming, and exploration.

Hollow Knight inherits the classic Metroidvania design. You can reach previously inaccessible areas by unlocking new skills like Mantis Claw, Monarch Wings, or Crystal Heart. As Hallownest gradually opens up, this brings a satisfying sense of discovery.
Combat is fast, precise, and incredibly satisfying. The Knight's primary weapon is a nail, which can be enhanced by spells and upgrades. Boss battles are notorious for their intensity and difficulty, and enemies have a wide range of behaviors.
Charms allow you to personalize your playstyle. They provide special passive skills such as increased spell casting, increased damage, or improved movement. The experience can be changed dramatically by choosing the right combination of charms.
Indeed. Tough boss battles and enemies are the hallmarks of Hollow Knight. However, for players who like to hone their skills, the game's difficulty is quite reasonable and rewarding.
The average playtime is 30 to 40 hours, but it can take over 60 hours to complete everything, including optional areas and secrets.
Indeed. Depending on what the player does, the secrets they discover, and the optional bosses they defeat, Hollow Knight has multiple endings.
