The excitement within Hollow Knight is most felt when you are absolutely lost. One wrong turn could lead to death since the map develops as the game progresses, often traveling mapless and blind to what lies ahead. Navigation is not for everyone, however in Hollow Knight, it does deliver an adrenaline-filled experience when weighing up paths. Players must navigate their way through twisted caverns and trap-filled pits. The game is not just challenging in the aspects of jumping, climbing, dodging and fighting, but also in navigation. The death mechanic is similar to Dark Souls, but with a twist in that if you die, you have to hunt down your deathpoint and slay your shadow to get your geo (currency) back. For the most formidable completionist, Steel Soul mode is an end game mode with permadeath. Powerful unique bosses drive the player to learn how to tackle each battle effectively. The game presents challenge in a perfect balance of various jumping puzzles, enemies, punishing roguelike death mechanics as well as checkpoints.
Hollow Knight manages to strike the balance of casual/veteran-friendly difficulty that many games lack.
