I loved hollow knight but don't know anything about any of the others.
Blasphemous is a straight up Metroidvania in a setting that could be described as like, Dark Souls with Catholic guilt. It's very good and not as hard as people say. Excellent game but the setting is going to be a deal-breaker for some people.

Haiku the Robot is short and plays a lot like Hollow Knight. It's great while you're playing it but kinda forgettable IMO.

Lost Ruins is a Metroidvania with some of the cruelty you'd expect of a Souls-like, e.g. instant death traps and overwhelmingly powerful enemies. However once you're a couple hours in it has a sharp drop in difficulty. IMO this is the third best one in the bundle that I've played, after HK and Blasphemous. Has a little anime grossness but that can be mostly ignored.

Bloodstained is like Symphony of the Night if it was ugly, soulless, and not fun to play. Okay I'm being harsh because people generally really like this game but my takeaway really was "this is just Castlevania but bad".
