This is one of those games that come every now and then and change everything you thought you knew about games. it's a tribute to the old days of NES: great graphics, super cool retro sound (it can be played on the original NES!), and characters that are just lovable. it offers a nice difficulty, with a cool feeling of trial an error that rewards you for your efforts. it's one of those games you must play!

The game had a large following before I played it--took it based off a recommendation; It is game that pivots on getting the timing down which is not always easy and I like the challenge from a relatively small title; Its not always about triple-A titles: sometimes there gems that must be played and this is one of them. Glad to have the physical copy.

Shovel Knight is an excellent platformer. I rave about this game all the time to my friends, I love playing it all the time, and replay it all the time. When you buy the game all future expansions (king of cards and the 4 player battle royal) will be included for free with updates.

This gem had slipped under my radar and ended up being one of my favorite games in years. I find myself being drawn more to retro-style games nowadays, and less into the really long and huge 3d worlds of most modern games. Part of the reason is the lack of time, and the fact that many games take forever to beat (if they ever even have a real story) and feel too similar. I have been gaming since the 80's and this certainly reminds me of my childhood. It has the graphic style, challenging difficulty and bosses, and even the 8-bit style music! There is a lot of gameplay and value in this package, with different modes to play after you beat it, such as a full story mode with another character, and challenge maps. This game is like the love child of some of the all time classics, such as: Zelda II, Mega Man, Castlevania & Duck Tales. If that sounds appealing, this is definitely for you!Read full review

Xbox one, Wii U, 3ds, and now PS4... that's how perfect this game is. (And also helps that each version has its own unique level/feature.
