What a legendary experience this game is. All 4 DLC bring so much to the table, and really mix it up every-time.100Carny
Each of Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove’s campaigns shines in its own right, but playing the same levels three times over, albeit re-designed for each character, can get boring after a while.90SpazioGames

Great fun! I played and completed all four game modes. Each was different enough to still keep it fun. Would definitely play again80Oddlennon
And ode to the classic NES games. Top best soundtracks of all time and the characters are very charismatic90Aaron_Deluxe
A must play! Really cool and challenging game, not too hard, not too easy. Amazing soundtrack and amazing pixelart, just take your shovel and enjoy killing enemies!90Ceok17
Soo much passion was put into this game. Amazing soundtrack and combat. Amazing content and replayability. Such a good game, although quite diffucult.100redeyedwerewolf
There are so many great games in this package, it can’t really be faulted. My personal favourites are King Of Cards and Shovel Of Hope but it’s all wonderful. So endearing, such tight gameplay.90B00tador
The best action-platformer I played with some actual difficulty and great boss battles.90JoeyPL5
These devs are some of the most devoted I have ever seen. They literally added a Smash Bros mode for no reason and it’s amazing.80MaddoxWhite

Negative Comment(s)

Sadly, I found later levels lost a lot of the game’s early steam, as too much of the old “pixel perfect” platforming starts to creep in.70Digitally Downloaded
I always liked Shovel Knight, but I never loved it. Not until it came to Switch.0The Jimquisition

this game is not good. i really dislike all the content from here. the gameplay is so… lazy?0Nintendist
An expensive trip down memory lane, when games really ****. Repetitive, frustrating, and ridiculously overpriced at $30.20Yoloswag419
the original game is definetly the best (10/10) while the other included games are more like an 7/1070Mustafigusto
Overrated made videogame; it took all the frustrating **** from old games, made another game in the oversatured artstyle and it is just ****40CatsNGames
Not a bad game, but certainly does not live up its name and all the ridiculous praise. Very generic plattformer at best70UnknownMight
