I've played for 17 hours as of this review and still have no clue what the story or my goal is - This game is quite mysterious..

I'd return after a few months and ask "What was I even doing again?". While this can be annoying, it surprisingly doesn't bother me much. Though, I do feel a bit lost at times.

The art, platforming, combat, world, they're all great. Hollow Knight is a joy to play.
