This game good

I really thought Yacht games would fail this but NO it is pretty good. I’m a big Shovel knight fan and since this game is pretty good I will just say a few things and not a lot

1 it feels really repetitive and sometimes gets boring.
2 The “find the armor” quests aren’t so great
3 WHAT IS TINKER KNIGHT DOING HERE

Very fun

Shovel Knight dig is a fun game that requires you to be really good at attacking and timing for some bosses. Like Shovel Knight, Shovel Knight Dig brings new lore, new areas, new bosses into the mix! And with multiple endings, my favourite is the True Ending, but also brings back the Enchantress! Amazing game!
