It's kind of like Hollow Knight in some ways. It's an isometric action game with faster combat than HK. There is a ton of customization available with different weapons, bonuses and routes. Lots of replayability (that's kind of the idea) but it's executed really well. Similar level of difficulty overall (it's a hard game to master). Less about exploring, more about combat and then there's the interaction with NPCs that acts as the narrative (characters are excellent). Overall it's an amazing game and I would pay full price or more easily for it.

I played it on Switch and had no issues. It technically runs better on PC but if you've never actually played it on PC you probably won't be able to tell the difference. The only reason I can tell that the switch is a bit lower FPS (and occasionally has some FPS drops due to some crazy fights) is because I've watched videos of people playing on PC, but it didn't impact my experience.

Great game at a great price! Lowest ever in Switch, I believe.

Would love to see this come to Xbox game pass in 4K glory. Anyone know if there's plans for this?

Does this game play reasonably well on the Switch?

This is more like a mix of Diablo and Dead Cells. If you like Hollow Knight, check out Ori and the Blind Forest and Will of the Wisps

I've put in over 75 hours but I've never played it on PC. It's super addicting is all I can say.

I had zero gameplay issues in my 150 hours on the Switch.

I've put in 115 hours so far, and I'd never played a dungeon crawler/roguelike before. The story is addicting and the whole game play is well thought out. It made me interested in other roguelike games, but I don't know if any will be as good.

Switch controls are responsive and crisp. The only minor issue is that it's hard on the handheld screen to see if you're in lava, which can really destroy you as you start to crank up the difficulty settings. 10/10 recommended though. I'm well over 100 hours on it.
