Ender Lilies: Quietus of the Knights starts out promisingly, with a massive map, compelling exploration, and solid combat. Unfortunately, it collapses into frustrating, overly difficult repetition by the end.
ENDER LILIES: Quietus of the Knights is a gorgeously haunting game, in both visuals and sounds. A few oddities in controls but overall a wonderful, tear-jerking and somewhat eerie experience.
Players will find themselves enamored with the game’s grimdark aesthetic and art direction; and while there may be some hiccups with the stage design or some frustration with the combat, Ender Lilies is a welcome addition to the Metroidvania genre that is likely to satisfy a broad swathe of gamers.
ENDER LILLIES: Quietus of the Knights is the definition of sky-high potential gone to waste. At first it will seem like this is a flawless diamond. It is beautiful, it controls like a charm, and the story behind it all is mysterious and dark. The more you play, however, the more you realise that, under the wallpaper-worthy vistas lies something that leans more towards generic than awesome, with combat in particular slowly turning into a repetitive slog. Sadly, this is nothing more an 'okay' metroidvania.
Ender Lilies features some truly captivating pieces. With its excellent soundtrack and captivating art style. However, the game falls flat in its execution. Making it a game that at times feels excellent and at others feels mundane.
Mixing different genres and mechanics, ENDER LILIES: Quietus of the Knights is perhaps one of the lesser-known, albeit one of the best Metroidvania titles released in the last ten years. From start to finish, with very few caveats, the game excels in everything it does.

Ender Lilies is one of the most loyal to the Metroid style, which modernizes it beautifully, and despite all its difficulties, if played in principle, it can even be fun for casual gamers. In fact, I have to say that Ender Lilies is one of those games that can make you interested in MetroDvania style and be the beginning of you starting to play titles in this style.

Nonetheless, Ender Lilies plays well and provides ample challenge for fans of these types of games. Multiple endings will likely compel you to keep exploring every untravelled path, but the final sections of the game will test players to their limits. Ender Lilies may not stand out in a crowd, but those who pledge to cleanse its world of Blighted will be well rewarded.
Ender Lilies: Quietus of the Knights‘ combat could still do with some work, not least because the animation is so gorgeous that limiting your physical attacks deprives the game of an extra dose of visual finesse. But this is still a magical outing that will have you hooked until the Blight is nothing but a bad memory.
I haven't played a Metroidvania as immersive and rewarding as Ender Lilies: Quietus of the Knights in a long time; it's great stuff.
ENDER LILIES: Quietus of the Knights is definitely a title worthy of admiration. The overall concept, the graphics, the music, the combat system and the very idea of this gloomy and sad story fit together perfectly to create something unique. We will continue to follow this Dark Souls loli and look forward to the final full game, which has so far got a very good rating. Note to gamers of a weaker nature, swap out your keyboards and mice for some more expendable ones while playing this title.

When you’ve played enough indie titles over time it’s hard not to get a bit cynical when you see certain elements in games...
Ender Lilies is a high grade piece of entertainment. It comes to remind us that developers don't always need a millionaire budget to make an immersive and fun videogame.
Ender Lilies provided a fun experience with a varied gameplay, great art direction, and an interesting story, and it is aimed at everyone who has previously enjoyed games of the same orientation such as Salt and sanctuary, Hollow knight and even Blasphamous. If you like it, you will definitely have fun with this pleasant surprise in this month.
