Pharloom’s depths have a way of hiding the tiny things that matter most. Among the many secrets woven into Hollow Knight: Silksong, the 30 Lost Fleas are easy to stumble across at first, then maddeningly easy to miss once Hornet’s map starts filling in. But there is one small soul who can turn the…

I never thought I would be this obsessed with a compass. But here we are, in 2026, with Hollow Knight: Silksong finally loaded on my machine, and I have spent more time rearranging Tools than actually sleeping. Hornet’s Crest has limited slots, so every red, blue, or yellow c…

I’ll be honest: when I first started Hollow Knight: Silksong, I expected weapon upgrades to be a straightforward grind. I kept swapping tools, collecting new crests, and hunting down Mask Shards all over Pharloom, but my needle damage barely moved. That changed after I freed Bellhart and…

When I started a fresh run of Hollow Knight: Silksong in 2026, I made a promise to myself: no locked Simple Door would remain closed. Simple Keys are rare items that open Simple Doors, allowing Hornet to access new areas, hidden treasure caches, quest objectives, and shortcuts. In my…

I still remember the first time I stepped into Hallownest…

Five years later, Pharloom pulls me back with the same magnetic dread. Let me tell you, the wait was agonizing, but boy, was it worth it. Team Cherry, a tiny team that built both Hollow Knight and Silksong, has…

I’ve been spending way too many nights exploring every corner of Pharloom since Silksong landed, and I thought I had seen most of what Team Cherry tucked into this massive world. Then I wandered into the Far Fields and got grabbed by that armored flea. You know the one: a…

Silksong is stuffed with enough optional sorrow to fill a quiver of needles, but few side stories hit as hard as the Green Prince quest. This melancholy mantis does not hand out a wish slip or spam a quest marker; he simply waits behind a locked door, radiating the kind of tragic…

The Deep Docks of Hollow Knight: Silksong have never exactly been a wellness retreat, but by 2026 the Forebrothers Signis & Gron have become the area’s fiery mic drop. The fight is a gorgeous two-boss ballet full of spears, lava falls, and the occasional flying rock…

Let me be real with you: Groal the Great is one of those bosses that made me question every life choice that led me to Bilewater. This big, grouchy lump lives in the top area of Bilewater, a swampy, dark corner of Pharloom that feels like it was designed by someone who really wanted…

Every so often, a game throws a quest at a player that looks optional but turns out to be the main road forward. In Hollow Knight: Silksong, that quest is Flexile Spines. Set in the Far Fields, this Wish tasks Hornet with gathering 25 Spine Cores from the…

Look, I’ll be honest: when I dove back into Hollow Knight: Silksong in 2026, I did not expect my late-game life to revolve around rescuing 30 misbehaving fleas from every cursed corner of Pharloom. But here we are. Hornet is apparently a full-time flea therapist now, and if you want that j…

Now that Hollow Knight: Silksong is finally here in 2026, I have been diving into every corner of Pharloom. Honestly, after my time in Deepnest back in the original Hollow Knight, I was ready to hate whatever skittering nightmare the sequel threw at me next. When I dropped into the…

Let me be real: when I first picked up the Broodfeast wish in Hollow Knight: Silksong, I assumed it would be a quick bug errand with a little reward at the end. Nope. This one sends you to a hidden swamp, demands a shopping list of monster organs, and forces you to…

Deep beneath the metallic spires of Pharloom, Hornet’s journey turned away from the Citadel’s main halls and into the quiet machinery of the Cogwork Core. There, an unmarked questline waited like a half-remembered hymn. It began not with a dramatic call to arms, but with…

Last week, in my 2026 run of Hollow Knight: Silksong, I stood before Bellhart’s Wishwall and accepted a Gather wish that sounded simple enough: find Silver Bells. The prompt mentioned tunnels above and below Bellhart, so I slid through one route, climbed out the far side, and found nothing. That first…

I’ll just say it: I’m a big video game guy, and I’m so good at video games. Silksong? Easy. I’m not like other gamers — I don’t struggle. Okay, time to get real. Hollow Knight is a hard game, and Silksong is no walk in the park either. When I first played Hollow Knight seven years ago,…

I recently revisited the Little Nightmares 3 demo in 2026, months after the full game landed on October 10, 2025. The first time I played, I was not ready for how quickly the demo drops you into its suffocating atmosphere. The second time, I still flinched. The opening 30 minutes take…

I’ll be straight with you: in Hollow Knight: Silksong, tools are the name of the game. I learned that the hard way in the Moss Grotto, juggling Hornet’s Compass and a few defensive Crests and still feeling like I was one slot short of a full kit. Then I stumbled onto Eva’s…

In Hollow Knight: Silksong, Act 2 is full of odd tools, but Spider Strings might be one of the most puzzling pickups in Songclave. The Yellow Tool’s description reads like it was written by a very sleepy cartographer, leaving many players unsure whether it’s a combat upgrade, a lor…

I’ll be honest with you: I have a real weakness for four-door sleepers that can humble muscle cars, and this heavily modified 2018 Cadillac ATS-V made me do a double take. In factory trim, the ATS-V’s 3.6-liter twin-turbo V6 was no slouch, cranking out 464 horsepower and 445 lb-ft of torque…
