A bizarre Hollow Knight: Silksong scam ad has been making the rounds, and as minor as it is, it's managed to get the attention of one member of developer Team Cherry, who advised fans to simply report the obviously fraudulent advertisement. The worst part? It spoils a major Act 2 boss (and so does this article, so be warned).

On Twitter, Team Cherry marketing and publishing boss Matthew Griffin responded to a fan sharing a clip (in this case, unlisted) from a video purportedly explaining "How To Download Hollow Knight: Silksong Mobile."
