Pretty fun and not too long metroidvania, and though the visuals are nice, in the later-game bullets lack visual clarity making fights fairly messy - some options to highlight enemy projectiles from friendly ones would have been welcome. Had a very nice evening playing through it, about 12 hours to finish the proper ending without completing the challenging achievements.
The Knight Witch blends Metroidvania exploration, fast twin-stick shooting, bullet-hell encounters, and deck-based magic into an adventure that feels considerably different from the typical side-scrolling action game. Developed by Super Mega Team and published by Team17, it places players in the underground world of Dungeonidas, where fantasy magic exists alongside advanced machinery. Rather than relying on one central mechanic, the game continually shifts between exploration, intense aerial battles, character progression, spell management, and story-driven decisions. The adventure follows Rayne, a young woman who becomes involved in defending Dungeonidas when an army of War Golems threatens its inhabitants. As a Knight Witch, she possesses both combat abilities and magical powers, but her journey also revolves around earning the confidence of the people she protects. This gives the narrative a more personal angle than simply defeating an invading force. Rayne gradually becomes a public symbol, and the way she communicates with citizens can affect the connection she establishes with them. Movement is one of the game's defining features. Rayne can fly freely through environments instead of being limited by conventional jumping and platforming. This creates an unusual interpretation of Metroidvania exploration, allowing players to approach rooms from several directions while searching for secrets, upgrades, and new paths. Progress still involves obtaining abilities and reaching previously inaccessible areas, but unrestricted flight makes navigating the interconnected environments feel much closer to a shoot-'em-up than a traditional platformer. Combat builds naturally around this mobility. Rayne can fire weapons while maneuvering around enemies, and encounters frequently fill the screen with projectiles that must be carefully avoided. Positioning becomes increasingly important as enemy patterns grow more complicated. Players need to balance attacking with survival, especially during larger encounters where several threats can arrive simultaneously. Auto-aim can simplify offensive control for players who would rather concentrate on dodging, while manual control provides a more involved challenge. Magic adds another layer through a customizable deck containing spell cards. More than 30 spell cards can be discovered, and these provide different offensive and defensive possibilities. The system encourages experimentation without turning the entire experience into a complicated card game. Spells function as tools within the real-time combat system, allowing players to complement conventional shooting with powerful magical attacks and situational abilities. Building around Knight abilities favors direct combat, while emphasizing Witch powers provides greater reliance on spells and magical options. Character progression also ties into Rayne's relationship with Dungeonidas. Knight Witches gain strength through the gratitude and trust of the people, making social interactions relevant to progression. Rayne sometimes has opportunities to determine how she presents information to the public, creating an interesting conflict between honesty and gaining greater support. It is a clever concept because the reputation system serves both the story and gameplay rather than existing merely as background dialogue. Difficulty can become demanding because bullet-hell combat requires quick reactions, especially when numerous projectiles occupy the screen. Fortunately, the game provides assistance features that make the experience more approachable. Auto-aim is particularly useful for players unfamiliar with multidirectional shooters, and other accessibility options can reduce some of the harsher challenges. Players looking for the intended level of intensity can ignore these assists, so the game accommodates different skill levels without forcing one difficulty philosophy on everyone. The hand-drawn visual direction gives Dungeonidas plenty of personality. Character designs are expressive, environments combine colorful fantasy imagery with mechanical elements, and combat produces an impressive display of magical effects and enemy fire. The presentation works particularly well during quieter exploration because areas retain visual character even when the screen is not filled with enemies. During intense battles, however, the quantity of effects and projectiles can occasionally make encounters visually busy. The genre mixture is also responsible for some of the game's limitations. Players who mainly want traditional Metroidvania platforming may need time to adjust to the constant aerial movement and shooter-focused battles. Likewise, players attracted primarily by bullet-hell action may find dialogue and exploration slow down the pace. The card system introduces tactical flexibility but remains intentionally secondary to real-time action. These elements make the game most appealing to players who enjoy experimentation across several genres rather than expecting a pure example of any single one. Steam Deck compatibility is officially listed as Steam Deck Verified, making it particularly well suited to portable play. Its controller-oriented movement and twin-stick combat translate naturally to the handheld format, although the amount of action and projectiles on screen means careful attention is still necessary during demanding encounters. Overall, The Knight Witch is an imaginative hybrid that manages to give its unusual combination of mechanics a coherent identity. Free-flight exploration distinguishes it from conventional Metroidvanias, bullet-hell encounters provide satisfying intensity, and the spell deck creates room for experimentation. Its trust system also connects narrative choices with progression in a meaningful way. Not every component is equally deep, and its combination of genres may require some adjustment, but the result is a stylish and engaging action adventure that rewards both quick reflexes and thoughtful character building. Rating: 8/10
Cute little metroidvania. Relatively simple and easy, but that makes it a comfy couch game. At first I found the world and story to be fairly interesting, but to keep things spoiler free let's just say that I didn't enjoy the final segment of the story. It felt forced, also both endings are very anticlimactic IMO. Other than that, I quite enjoyed the game, it's very cheap too during sales. Can't really go wrong here. Oh, and for you weirdos in the discussions that ask if this game is woke, no it isn't, why would you even think that? Because the game has a cute art style? What's wrong with that? Because the knight witches are women? Dawg they are witches. Instead the game's message is more about ecology, you know kinda like FF7, but cuter.
The art style is super pleasing to look at, and unlike a lot of reviews here, I felt the movement was perfect. The only gripe I have is the insane difficulty spikes in some areas, which forced me to turn on cheats (only enemy health drops) in order to beat the game. I couldn't imagine spending several hours trying to perfect clear areas just to be able to have enough health later. Other than that, great game!
