This was a replay, and my opinion is pretty much the same as it was when I played it the first time. It's the weakest of the game's four campaigns, but it's still pretty fun. The controls are pretty interesting and fun to use, but they don't get fully used a lot of the time since most of the level design is just copypasted from shovel knight's campaign. Plague of Shadows is at it's best when it's doing it's own thing. Like the story, for instance. Seeing what's happening on the other side of Shovel Knight's campaign is really fun, and Plague Knight and Mona's relationship is great and really helps carry the story. The original music and visuals are spot on, and feel just as great as the original campaigns. Overall? A pretty great time, and a worthy game to be in the treasure trove lineup.
