Our take on Hollow Witch
Players focused on careful platforming may hit the wall when hidden traps and small creatures punish movement mistakes. The power system adds another pressure point: performing rituals advances escape while also bringing the witch closer to losing control.
What is Hollow Witch?
Hollow Witch is a precision platformer set in a dark dungeon of locked rooms, traps, and small hostile creatures.
The witch uses magic energy to control her movement and reach all 40 rooms on her path to freedom. In each room, she guides the souls of her lost sisters to enchanted candles. Completing these rituals frees the sisters and allows them to summon keys. Visible and concealed hazards make careful movement important, while creatures can harm the witch. Each ritual also leaves some of a sister’s power behind. This brings the witch closer to escape but also increases the risk of losing control of her mind.
