Critic Reviews
Pixel Arts
By Navid Khorram KhorshidFor enthusiasts of challenging classics like Nintendo's toughest titles or adrenaline-pumping shooters akin to Contra, Knight Witch delivers hours of exhilarating entertainment. However, if you're seeking a traditional Metroidvania experience, you might find yourself slightly underwhelmed. Despite this, Knight Witch's difficulty warrants at least one playthrough for avid gamers.
Impulsegamer
By Andrew HolmesThe Knight Witch is a super fun game an original take on a few different genres. While the game isn't perfect, I do think people should go out of their way to try it out.

By Drew SherrattThe Knight Witch is a blend twin-stick bullet hell shooter and the Metroidvania that succeeds in the face of some technical problems by virtue of its enjoyable story and wonderful universe, expressed in beautifully hand drawn visuals and filled with endearing characters. Whilst not perfect, the gameplay is enjoyable and requires a good amount of skill - there’s just a few elements that just needed a little more polish in order to really make the most impact. It feels to me like the opening entry in a wonderful franchise, where new spells and features could lead to even bigger and better things in the future.
