Ambush Rooms (also called Ambush Sites or Lockdown Rooms) in Hollow Knight: Silksong are special multi-enemy encounter areas where the doors temporarily lock, trapping Hornet inside to fight waves or groups of enemies that spawn in sets. These fights emphasize crowd control, positioning, and quick reflexes, often feeling like mini-bosses or skill checks.
