Hollow Knight has some truly engaging combat that makes players feel a well-deserved sense of accomplishment whenever they manage to deal with a seemingly impossible threat. The combat system is incredibly tight, and players who fall in battle do so truly out of their own mistakes, and not because of any dirty tricks the game might be pulling on t

Most good Metroidvanias thrive on satisfying players out of the mere act of exploration itself, and Hollow Knight is no exception to this golden rule. Exploring every nook and cranny of this intriguing world is a marvelous experience and something that no self-respecting fan of good Metroidvanias should miss out

One of the biggest selling points of Blasphemous is its setting, which is as interesting as can be, lifting heavily from Spanish folklore. The religious motifs and allegories present make for a truly entertaining experience ind

Dead Cells has never gotten the credit it deserves, but's an incredibly fast paced game with some of the best combat in the genre. On its own merit, Dead Cells is a roguelike unlike any other and a must-play for anyone even remotely interested in 2D Soulsli

Charms can be found in a variety of ways. Several of them can be bought from merchants scattered throughout the kingdom. Others are located throughout Hallownest itself and can only be found through exploration or by completing various platforming challenges. Which is to say nothing of the charms that are dropped by certain bosses throughout the g

There is one more option: cut those loses. Yes, sometimes a game just isn’t the one in which case two things will play out, either selling it back to the local game store or having to delete it off the hard drive and realize you get nothing back for purchasing said game. This is where a bit of tactic comes into how games are purchased. For ones that are sure to be a one and done, just buy it from the store/online and sell it back to that local game store where you get cash or credit towards that next game. Buying a one and done digitally knowing there is nothing in return if it’s not for you is just a bummer. Which is why I bought Vampyr physically; it’s easy to know I will play it once and feel good about it, and then it can go towards another game, continuing the cycle.

There you are, finally sitting in the comfort of your own home all cozy with nom-noms and sweet-stickies (or not). You settle warmly into the cushions like they’re heaven on earth and you begin a fresh game. And soon an hour has passed and you're kind of bored; is it the game? Is it you? Maybe a little too much hype and excitement, you thought you tempered your expectations, but nope, that feeling of dissatisfaction gnaws at the back of your mind and so you turn the game off and play [insert literally any game.].

Bottom line: the more the player plays, the more charms they can come across. Although it should be noted that some of these charms are stored in some exceptionally well-hidden spots. Within the game lies breakable walls, floors that can only be broken with the desolate dive ability and even darkened rooms that are not visible on the map. This means the player should keep an eye out when traveling through Hallownest’s various regions so they don’t miss out on any useful cha

Ashen is one of the better games that attempts to take after the Souls series. As it only released on Xbox One and PC, it can be considered one of the better games that came to Xbox One and not PlayStation 4 or Nintendo Swi

Have you found yourself listening to the Hollow Knight Abilities Knight soundtrack thinking, "You know what would be awesome? If all the orchestral parts of this music were stripped out and arranged solely for piano." If you have, I have some very good news for you.
