there is an amiibo fairy you can talk to in town.\u00a0 You can scan these amiibo with her and it\u2019ll unlock some costumes for some characters, and you can summon a little fairy friend based on the amiibo to follow you around as you play.\u00a0 It doesn\u2019t really do anything or get in the way, so you don\u2019t HAVE to have any amiibo figures to enjoy the full game.\u00a0 In the Shovel Knight game on older consoles like the Wii U and 3DS, the Shovel Knight amiibo would unlock challenges but I think they\u2019re available from the get go on the Switch version of Treasure Trove.\u00a0 And that\u2019s all for now!\u00a0 Hope you enjoyed Shovel Knight week!\u00a0 Later!\u00a0 &#8211;Cary<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The last thing we\u2019ll look at for this
