GUESS SHOVEL KNIGHT FROM SCREENSHOTS

Shovel Knight cover

Yacht Club Games' debut turned Kickstarter nostalgia into a modern classic: Shovel Knight digs through NES-inspired stages with pogo-bounce combat, facing the Order of No Quarter to rescue Shield Knight. Its 8-bit aesthetic hides thoroughly modern design — checkpoints you can gamble, relics that reshape combat, and pitch-perfect boss battles.
