Hollow Knight by Team Cherry is a Metroidvania type game where the player explores the deep underground, meeting other characters who are trying to survive a harsh and lonely world and uncovering the history of Hollow Nest. Though the player is voiceless, literally a little knight, the personality in all of the other characters make the game extremely easy to connect with. The world, the music, the deep lore that must be pieced together through gameplay alone— I still remember the strong impact that it had on me when I played for the first time.
