A modern take on a 8 bit NES side-scrolling platformer. Brilliant MONO soundtrack, very solid game mechanics/controls, rpg elements, beautiful visuals with lots of bright colours & a charming fairytale style. Level selection much like a Mario game (map) & collectibles to trade in for unlocks.

Great price! Of course I preordered my copy and it remains sealed on my shelf. Typical.

How much did the pre-order copy cost you? Why've you not played it yet? It's because of people like you, that physical releases, and indeed games like this get made... I've yet to put my money where my mouth is, so I salute you.

I was playing this at a friend house and I was thoroughly enjoying it but he decided to sell his PS4 so I've ordered it to play on mine. At this price it was just too hard to pass up :sunglasses:

It's such a breath of fresh air in today's video game industry

I completely agree. As you can imagine, I was disappointed that my friend sold his PS4 but I'm in need of a different type of game as I've been hammering Battlefront and Uncharted Collection. Shovel Knight is just to tonic I need. I also think the physical copy comes with all released updates and it actually includes a proper manual lol :laughing:

What is it? Yes cross out your "A PS4 game" and "Google is your friend" (cos you know, no one has ever actually said THAT before have they) etc etc and please just give me a synopsis....

Does this come with a code? The digital version for £3 more plays on 3 systems.

It comes with a lovely 'old style' approx 38 page instruction booklet (non existent with games these days!) detailing controls, relics, enemies, friends etc. No code for cross platform play but a code for a free download of the soundtrack if that's of interest. Personally I just prefer physical copies of games hence why I bought it.

Perfectly described MorningStar, reminds me a little of Castlevania on the NES with a bright, modern twist :smiley:
