Knytt Underground is a huge, wonderful game, one that offers a large, undiscovered world that comes with secret areas, new worlds, and enough rooms to keep players coming back for more. Knytt Underground may not be for everyone: anyone looking for a stronger story and more action won’t find it here. For everyone else, this is a game truly worth your time, and fun to play at home, or on the go with the Vita. Try it out, get lost, and enjoy.
Hardcore Gamer: For $2, you can get Postal, Expeditions: Conquistador, Knytt Underground, Blockland, Steel Storm: Complete Edition, and Rock of Ages.

It is in discovery that Knytt Underground manages to excite by luring your curiosity throughout its entirety. Broody and evocative, Nifflas signals the emerging rise of the indies on the Nintendo eShop, crafting experiences that rival even the platform holder’s lofty creations.
Matt of RGN writes, "Knytt is at its core, a 2D platformer, but adds a large world to explore and gives the player abilities to solve puzzles and advance throughout the world, allowing the character to dash, fly and teleport, among other powers. Each chapter of the game involves different aspects of gameplay, with the first being an introduction to the main character, the second focused on a ball form, and the third combining both together. While frustrating at times during the beginning as you figure out how each power works and controls, once you’ve got the hang of it, Knytt Underground is absolutely hard to put down and each place you explore is a fun experience."
Quality game, nice to see it getting good scores.
