This Knight Witch is a great Metroidvania game that ticks the right boxes with its impressive gameplay, visuals, well-written characters, and exciting mechanics. It is made alive by the added deck building and rogue-like gameplay that keep things fresh throughout the campaign. It can be a bit challenging initially, but that’s part of the appeal and what makes it stand out.

The Knight Witch is a fantastic freeform flying, bullet hell metroidvania with a fun, if unsubtle, narrative that should last about eight to ten hours. Although, that very aggravating water level may be a bit of a turn-off to many, but if you can get through that one irritating level, this is definitely a game worth recommending.

The Knight Witch is a fast and enjoyable shoot 'em up. Its greatest asset is the agile combat that uses shots, spells and a dash of bullet hell to create varied and electrifying clashes. Difficulty is intense and fair most of the time, and being able to switch between auto and manual aiming at any time brings flexibility to the action. In addition to the battles, there is a vibrant world full of situations to be explored. The game has metroidvania features, but they are quite shy: revisiting areas is costly and progression is mostly linear. Other than that, the universe delights with its elaborate beauty, but the story does not excite and some mechanics are underdeveloped. In the end, The Knight Witch is a fun, fast-paced shoot 'em up experience.

Behind its beautiful art, The Knight Witch houses a frantic and deep game, both for the personality of its story and for its ability to combine different genres in robust gameplay. In this way, manifesting herself as a true Witch Warrior, the brave Rayne casts a powerful spell and creates a journey that proves capable of enchanting everyone on Switch.

It is no longer that the metroidvanias have a pull that I hope will continue to last for many years. It is not the fact of hybridizing genres either, although here a plus of originality is achieved for it. It is to do it in a very good way, in a very fun adventure. The Knight Witch not only proposes metroidvania, bullet-hell and deck-building card, it is that it does it with great ease, understanding what it is, and adapting perfectly to any viewer who enjoys adventures, and not limiting himself to those skilled with the pad or niche shmup players, but also giving them challenge and bait. If the proposal attracts you and attracts your attention, but you think that this Metroidvania 'ship' game may not be for you, trust me, it is.

The Knight Witch can join the ranks of indie Soulslike & search action titles as one of this year's more challenging offerings. You'll die countless times getting the hang of the game's bullet hell patterns, but at the same time find joy and satisfaction in defeating the opposition with your correct choice of Spell Cards and playstyle, alongside its tight controls and fun levels.
