Very good monster catching JRPG type game with hours of content. HUGE areas to explore and a captivating, adorable story with charming creatures and a unique, albeit a bit tedious battle system. Some flaws from the first game remain, but if you can look past the slight tedium the game offers, it's a solid entry into the humongous library of games the 3DS has to offer.

Shovel Knight is like cookies baked by your grandma. Sure, you could go out to the store and buy those cookies that come in packs, but nothing beats the taste of one's made with ingredients right off the shelf. It may not be the perfect game, but looking past the flaws, you are in for a treat. No, more like a feast.
