Mina The Hollower is a triumph of giving a damn

Summary: Mina The Hollower is a brand-new video game from Yacht Club Games, the creators of Shovel Knight. It mixes the spooky monster-whipping of Castlevania with the fun, top-down puzzles of classic Game Boy Zelda games. You play as Mina, a hero who can burrow underground to dodge attacks, jump high, and find hidden secrets.

The game is packed with over 20 hours of carefully crafted levels. It can be tough, and playing for hours might make your aging hands cramp up, but it offers clever settings to adjust the difficulty to your liking. It is a true masterpiece of game design where every single screen matters.
