comprate sto cazzo di gioco è una hit
really good
Good game about bugs. Can recommend >:D Just know you need to be a little masochistic if you play this as a complete noob because well..you will die all the time :,D
стиль красивый
to hard
类银神作
great visuals, cute creatures and just hard enough to keep me hooked
es un increible juego
无论是音乐，剧情还是美术我觉得都无可挑剔，空洞骑士最大的魅力对于我来说是剧情，TC对人物的塑造最高明的方法就是“克制”，不“丰满”但是“迷人”。只要耐心到了，真的会沉迷于这个虫子的世界，同时不低的上手门槛劝退了很多普通玩家（丝之歌也是因为这个被打差评），还是觉得量力而行吧，初见成功冠军（也是直接被打傻了。而且我不得不说丝之歌绝对比一作要好，手感好了不知道多少，体量也不知道要大了多少。总之这是一个神作无论是一代还是二代，无论是硬核的高技术玩家还是单纯想要了解空洞骑士背后故事的玩家都可以乐在其中。尽情地享受吧！（
Very good game, calming and relaxed, but if you want action you can also have some. I recommend it to indie games players, since is the best one I've ever played.
