In Hollow Knight: Silksong, "Wishes" are the game's formal side-quest system - offered by NPCs or posted on special boards. They are optional quests but many of them tie into progression.
Wishes are grouped into categories based on the type of objective:
- Donate - Spend currency, rosaries or shards, to upgrade towns or services.
- Gather - Collect specific items from enemies or areas.
- Wayfayer - Exploration-based, finding NPCs or items, or reaching certain locations.
- Hunt - Defeat a particular type or number of enemies.
- Grand Hunt - Higher-difficulty hunts or boss-style challenges.
- Delivery - Transport a fragile item without damaging the "package".
- Unique / Other - Special ones, e.g. Learn, Sprint or Witness.
