Undertale
Description
In UNDERTALE you play as a human child who falls underground into the world of monsters. Now you must find your way out... or stay trapped forever.
Welcome to UNDERTALE, an RPG game where you don't have to kill anyone. Each enemy can be "defeated" nonviolently. Dance with a slime. Pet a dog. Whisper your favorite secret to a knight.
Or, ignore this choice and rain destruction upon your foes.
But your journey will take determination. Each adversary has unique bullet patterns that you must dodge as well (don't worry, it's not that hard).

But your journey will take determination. Each adversary has unique bullet patterns that you must dodge as well (don't worry, it's not that hard).
- Killing is unnecessary: negotiate out of danger using the unique battle system.
- Time your attacks for extra damage, then dodge enemy attacks in a style reminiscent of top-down shooters.
- Soulful, character-rich story with an emphasis on humor.
- Created mostly by one person.
- Become friends with all of the bosses!
- At least 5 dogs.

10/10
It's hard to express just how much I adore Undertale without spoiling anything significant, but that's what I love about it. It tells its story in such a dynamic way, and with such a great understanding of the RPG player's mindset, that it couldn't have been told in any other way. It's a masterfully crafted experience that I won't forget any time soon.

Perhaps I missed the point...
I played a couple of hours but undertale failed to engage me. At all. Perhaps if I grew up with games - and knew the memes and all that... but all that goes straight over my head like a punch line to a joke one doesn't get.

The best Indie-RPG
This game has amassed quite a reputation, and I must say that it is entirely deserved. The game's subject matter is too small and insignificant-seeming compared to the lofty heights that AAA RPG's usually struggle to attain. There is much more of a focus on simply making friends, for example, than killing God. What really sells it is the writing, which is spot on. Doesn't hurt that the music is also incredible. Can't be beat for the price.

A game to keep in your heart
This game with simple graphics provided me one of the best experiences with art in my life. I almost didn't enjoy it because of spoilers and misinformation about it at the year it was released. But I'm so glad I gave it a second chance. It has great humor, great easter eggs, great emotional moments, it's extremely well written and has a soundtrack that's a masterpiece by itself. Toby Fox made every corner of it you explore satisfying. Plus it gave birth to great fan and original works that I can't even keep up with. Simply an unmissable game ❤️

Awesome but be careful
It's my first review about a game. I wanted to do it for this one because I don't think everyone knows the game could be really emotionally-charged and not always for the better. I have loved this game, the characters and the story are great, I don't have anything more to say about it. Yet, this game let you do what you want, even if it implies to realize heartbreaking actions, and the game itself will punish you even if you start a new game. If you look at what the internet made about this game, you could have an insight of how the player could become attached to the characters, and I think the game is partly responsible. One last thing, I think Undertale is an horror game, clearly not an ordinary one, but if you don't like this at all I don't believe it will be a good experience for you.
