Review Vencel 4/5 · Feb 16, 2025

Nine Sols (Xbox SS)

Es Hollow Knight y Sekiro, empieza bien. Es brutal, es exigente, es difícil. Tiene historia, aunque me ha dado un poco igual, y una estética y OST muy guay. Me ha gustado mucho pero tendré pesadillas por siempre con el boss final, que cosa mas loca por favor.
