Metroidvania + Bullet Hell = The Knight Witch

Beautiful visuals, fluid gameplay, an interesting and well-paced story, challenging (boss-)fights. As long as you enjoy metroidvanias, aren't afraid of (little) bullet hell games and don't hate card decks... a joy to play. After a worldwide war where the Knight Witches defeated a billionaire who devasted the earth, the rest of humanity (including you and your husband) were forced to live in an underground village. 14 peaceful years later suddenly an army of orcs (or in this case golems) invade the underground city and capture your friends. You are not a Knight Witch (yet), but you once trained to become one and so you can already fight and fly.

I love the Metroidvania genre, and I really appreciate how The Knight Witch brings something truly unique to it. This sub-genre has become oversaturated in the indie game space. There are dozens of choices for great Metroidvania games to play, so when one tries something new, it really helps it stand out—and The Knight Witch definitely stands out. TIME PLAYED I’ve played about five hours of The Knight Witch

Summary: Knight Witches become stronger with gratitude and trust, and they can earn it in many different ways. As you journey across Dungeonidas, your heroic deeds and efforts will be seen and discussed by the citizenry. However, not all methods are sincere. Will you do anything to gain popularity, or will you try and stay honest? The choice is in your hands. A Metroidvania adventure game with fast-paced, shoot-'em-up combat set in a beautifully hand-drawn world. Cast devastating card-based spells, forge close bonds, and make moral choices, all in your quest to save your home and discover who's behind the War Golem invasion.
