    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Played it on the year of its release and really enjoyed it. However it is not without its flaws.

    The best thing about it is the music; lovely pieces that became instant memes because of how catchy and "video-gamey" they were.

    [spoilers ahead]
    Story comes next. It is interesting enough to catch your attention, and the game design deviates from classical RPG on purpuse in order to make you get focused on narrative and dialogue - for an example: there are side-quests and instances where you can deviate from the route to 'complete' the game, but while in most other RPGs the side-quests reward you with special equipment, weapons, abilities etc., in Undertale you get funny cutscenes and dialogue as rewards.

    The story itself is simple, charming but lacks some depth and complexity. At most, it hits you with some "im14andthisisdeep" moments. 4th wall-breaking is more of an easy gimmick than something truly original or smart.

    Graphic design could have been better. Some characters feel clunky and rushed; devs could have done a better job in this regard.    … Expand

    I thought it was going to be a very cheap homage to retro RPGs, but it kept surpassing my expectations, becoming one of my favorite games. I thought I knew what I was getting but I got something infinitely better. It's a great game if you like weird humor and incredibly likable characters.

    I heard great things about this game and ended up buying it. I went in blind, not knowing what to expect. I barely got past the intro before I fell completely in love with it. It's so charming, unique heartfelt. I just want to snuggle every character.

    UNDERTALE is my favourite game. IMO it's a masterpiece.

    First of all, if you would like to play this game, don't spoil it for yourself, you should do at least your first playthrough "blindly" for the best experience. You won't regret it... UNDERTALE's "motto" is "The friendly RPG where nobody has to die!", because you decide who you want to kill (or who you don't = ) ). You can even    UNDERTALE is my favourite game.

    One of the best from the many things that make the game great is that its creator, Toby Fox (it's mostly made only by him) thought of almost everything, even the littlest details. For example, you can hear a character's theme's leitmotif in the location's theme where they appear, etc etc... (10/10 explanation (/s))
    Another great thing is that even players who have already finished the game many times (*cough* replayed *the* "routes" many times *cough*; like me) can discover/hear new things, new mysteries (solved) about the game.

    Boy, I could write a long and detailed list on the things that make UNDERTALE great.

    Also, this game is the perfect example on how videogames' graphics doesn't matter that much.

    I rate this game and its soundtrack tem out of tem! ((seamless reference))

    BTW, people say that the fanbase is "cancerous", but most of the time you can only meet cancerous fans if you are looking for them "intentionally"...

    P.S. As someone once said: Toby Fox is cleverly lazy and lazily clever.    … Expand

    This game is an absolute masterpiece. This game illustrates perfectly how amazing indie games can be. (toby fox made this game almost completely by himself).

    If you haven't played this game yet, then I strongly suggest you do so! you will NOT regret it! Make sure though that you don't search anything about Undertale, as it will ruin the experience.

    SPANISH/STEAM REVIEW.
    Uno de los juegos mas ÚNICOS que he visto, no lo considero perfecto ni considero que tenga gran jugabilidad (Se acerca en ambos sentidos), sinó que rompe muchos esquemas en los videojuegos, como lo de no matar a gente, ser amigos de jefes, el juego te habla y se comunica contigo y rompe muchas veces la cuarta pared, si sale un juego que arme tanto revuelo como esté,    SPANISH/STEAM REVIEW.
    Uno de los juegos mas ÚNICOS que he visto, no lo considero perfecto ni considero que tenga gran jugabilidad (Se acerca en ambos sentidos), sinó que rompe muchos esquemas en los videojuegos, como lo de no matar a gente, ser amigos de jefes, el juego te habla y se comunica contigo y rompe muchas veces la cuarta pared, si sale un juego que arme tanto revuelo como esté, será algo COMPLETAMENTE INESPERADO.

    Normalmente no le pondría puntuación ya que si es único no podría compararlo con los otros videojuegos en sus aspectos, esa es la razón por la que muchos consideran -perfecto- el juego :p .

    -Le pongo un 10/10 en dialogo e historia (Si no lo evaluara como indie le bajaría a 7/10)
    -En apartado técnico nose, es que cada acción que hagas creas un algoritmo donde ese acto toma consecuencias en el futuro (EJ: Le dices a la rana que odias los textos amarillos y luego esos textos aparecen botado en la basura) y cientos de cosas más, pero mas allá de eso no hay mucho, le doy un 6/10 sin la interaccion entre hechos-consecuencias y un 9/10 con ello y lo de la cuarta pared (si lo evaluara como un juego triple AAA, le daría un 3/10 y un 7/10 respectivamente)
    -En diseño y originalidad le pongo un 9/10
    En total le pondría un 8/10, ya que no se puede hacer mucho en las batallas y en el mapa en sí, mas que puzzles, interactuar con personajes y llamar por teléfono, cosas que en el lado del diseño y arte esta excelente pero en lo tecnológico esta cutre para ser un rpg.    … Expand

A game that, no matter how many times I play, I can never say that "I've seen it all" or that "I know it all", because it would be a huge lie. It has great replay ability and a bunch of endings. Some don't realize their actions matter until it's already too late. My friends in the Internet played it like Pokemon, and then regretted it. My friends at school outright refuse to play, watch someone else play it or even look it up because of the graphics. They don't know what they're missing. Fun fact, they compliment the music I usually listen to, which is from the soundtrack of the game. The fandom is also really entertaining. All the alternate universes people make, the comics and the fanart... Even fanmade songs. I think Undertale is one of those gems that only appear once every something years, and that everyone should give it a shot and try to see past the graphics. Definitely my favorite game ever in all platforms.… Expand

    Undertale is a game close to my heart. I went in with no idea what to expect and after a single day in which I completed the games main route, I left with a new favourite game.

This is the only game aside from Papers, Please that I would consider literally perfect. I'm serious. Even Crash Bandicoot 2, my previous favourite game, is flawed in certain areas. (Hitboxes, certain broken textures, etc.)

    Whereas a normal game would make me say "That was fun" and leave it at that, Undertale changed how I view video games. Seeing as I'm in the process of making my own, this is a great thing. Seeing as I was a pacifist, I actually hesitated to kill in other games. A lot of negative reviews here say that the combat is too simple, but don't realise that it's simpler to select an attack and receive damage. All the bullet hell is is a was to negate damage should you avoid everything.

    No game has had an effect as huge as Undertale has on me, even ignoring things like the only soundtrack I religiously listen to outside the game. Even Hotline Miami didn't have a soundtrack that strong. The reason for this is that Toby Fox, the lead dev, primarily made music beforehand. He was responsible for a lot of Homestuck's soundtrack.

    Some people think that people who rate 10 are simply fanboys, but it's not easy to get a 10 from me. I recommend this heavily to literally everyone. I only ask that you don't use a walkthrough. Being blind is a big part of the experience.

    In a time when graphics are the single most essential thing in the industry Undertale stands out with the likes of CaveStory and ShovelKnight with simple pixel graphics to stand up even taller past the realm of the niche breaking the barrier of nostalgia around titles like Super Smash Bros: Melee and The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time and standing up to and staring down the triple AIn a time when graphics are the single most essential thing in the industry Undertale stands out with the likes of CaveStory and ShovelKnight with simple pixel graphics to stand up even taller past the realm of the niche breaking the barrier of nostalgia around titles like Super Smash Bros: Melee and The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time and standing up to and staring down the triple A titles of 2015 like Fallout 4 and The Witcher 3.

    Unlike many titles of the present day with techniques that encourage you to grind so you waste more time on sub-par parts of games Undertale doesn't make you waste any of your time and makes the game totally engaging when it does for the sake of anticipation, and remains brief.

    Many titles now feel like they are inherently missing content because of things like day-one-DLC that encourage the player to spend more money on content that should have been in the game in the first place. There is nothing missing in Undertale, period. The game is a complete and memorable experience. Unless you are an irrational person who believes all the hype and literally thinks that this game will cure cancer, YOU WILL ENJOY THIS GAME.

    The game does the job correctly of being a video game by actually being fun. It seems like we've forgotten that competition doesn't inherently equal fun, and this is something I think games like Super Smash Bros. and League of Legends easily forget.

    The characters are memorable and lovable the soundtrack is clever and thematic and the story easily surpasses anything thought up by the likes of the video game creation community for a long time.

    10 is not even a high enough score, if it were up to me I would give this game an eleven because I've never played a game like it, and probably never will again…

    You would do well with your $10 in buying Undertale, and even better with your $20 buying both it and the soundtrack.    … Expand

    I can say really a lot about this game. Don’t even know what to start with... Yeah almost everyone who played this game has fallen in love with it. Yes this game have really a lot of fans, theories, some interesting stories, etcetera. But I’m here to tell you what I like in this game the most.
    Music
    I don’t know how much time it took to create all those soundtracks, but I think for amators it would take like a years to do such a thing. Because this music is the whole game. Every soundtrack is unique and cool. Maybe this game the only one where all soundtracks are really cool. Every single one. Some tracks really inspire you in the battles. Some of them are just relaxing, and some even have made my friend cry o.o Even now I’m listening to the soundtrack which fills me up with determination to write this review :) You can find music -here and here
    Story
    What can be better than an interesting story with 3 routes . Pacifist, Genocide, Neutral.
    1.Pacifist is a whole game of emotional positivity, the best jokes from skeletons (♥♥♥♥ I love their jokes). Interesting and unbelievable shows from mettaton and alphys. The coolest time spending with Undyne and others. After Undertale you will still keep in your mind all character because each of them is unique. You will love all of them because how to not love so funny, kind , interesting friends to who you will prove that not every human brings the chaos in the underground. Maybe from the start you will think how to get to home because all game is about how you are trying your best to reach the point like with every save you are filling yourself more and more with the determination like you meeting so many enemies on your way but you trying to prove them people are not bad you gain more and more friends, fans and just people who want to stay with you. And that’s it you reached the point you filled on full with determination you see that you almost reached the end and after you doing that you understand that you don’t want to leave all those friends you gain, you don’t want to lost all those love you earned from them and you understand that you heart is here and it’s belonging to them. But things going even more better in the true pacifist ending you are not just reaching the point but you not even leaving your friends, family. And all happy together.
    2. Genocide: But you see that there is not only one way to use your determination, you think you should become stronger to raise your LV and HP . But with every lv up you see that you are losing your self and something other controlling it now but this is already too late to stop you killed everyone there is no way back. Everyone told you:” You gonna have a bad time”, but you didn’t listen. The whole game trying to say you that to be bad it’s not that easy and there is no profit from it. But you are filled with determination again and you are going further because you know you can do it and you are doing it and what happened next it doesn’t matter for you any more you just want to do it and that’s all.
    3.Neutral: Sometimes you kill sometimes not, but still you will be forced to choose bad or good ending.
    At the end I will say that this game can really go deep in your heart. Be careful thro to not hurt yourself by choosing routes. This game will also go deep in your memory with all good moments you passed in. Of course I recommend this game and wish to everyone have fun in it. I will see you in the next review and stay determined!
    My real hours somwhere close to ~ 55 because i was afk a lot in game.

Even so, the overwhelmingly large and amazing fan base I had stumbled into was still going strong. I was overcome by the kindness and diversity of the community and had to play the game for myself. I got the game for Christmas of that year and “finished” it in only two days. The game had been even better than I had anticipated, and I couldn’t put it down.

    I had started playing the game only a day after I got it, and was immediately thrust into the story. Although there wasn’t much on the surface, game creator, Toby Fox, left cracks specifically for the community to tear into caverns. The game’s characters made me feel like a had a real relationship with a real person, and when it came to killing or sparing, I could never pick the first. I decided first to play the pacifist route, the preferred first of itself, neutral, and genocide. In pacifist, when giving the choice, you spare every single NPC, and don’t kill, or eat, a single one. In neutral, you kill side characters, and spare every main character. In genocide, you brutally murder everything in sight. It is the only gamemode I couldn’t bring myself to play. I did watch gameplay of the gamemode, however, but watching every character be mercilessly murdered, brought me to literal tears.

    I absolutely loved the game. It was, by far, my favorite gaming experience of all time. The community was the most immersive, kind, and compassionate I’ve ever seen. The game itself was definitely a 5-star experience, and I’ve never felt so emotionally attached to a game and its story. Its characters felt so real, and they made me genuinely want to help them with their struggles. I felt like I wanted to cry when a character was sad or hurt, and I felt excited when I character was happy or accomplished something.

This little game does something that no other has actually accomplished... by making the choices feel real and the consequences can reach you in real-life. Few games can actually make you care, but this game makes you feel it as if it was real.

    Every single character is memorable, the soundtracks alone are already worth the money you get from it. The game changes drastically depending on how you play it and, there are mysteries, romances, nightmare-fuel segments and vivid dialogues that makes you care about each and every of those characters. If you're a good person at heart, chances are, you might cry before you even get through the tutorial. What you do or not have a tremendous change on the world around you, unlike many other titles out there.

    Despite not having a great variety of attack choices (like magic, limit breakers or whatever), the game allows you to interact much more with each monster you encounter, by allowing you to dodge, time your attacks (you could also not attack at all or miss on purpose), mixing RPG mechanics with Platforming, Bullet hell and dating sims. No joke.

    If you're expecting an action RPG or a hack n slash with AAA graphics, then dude... You're at the wrong side of gaming here. This is a experience unlike any other game and... if you don't get any spoilers, then, it is NECESSARY to play the game more than once. Seriously, DO NOT JUDGE THIS GAME AFTER ONLY ONE PLAYTHROUGH. Make different choices, spare, kill, see what changes, this game's songs and humor are only not even the tip of the iceberg. Toby Fox's work is DENSE and you should take it in a personal level, not taking choices to get Ending A or Ending B, but doing what you would do if this WASN'T a game.

This game truly is a masterpiece through the first two of the three main endings. The third, however, is much like the secrets you hide in your closet. It’s there but you hope no one goes to see what’s inside. If not for this third main ending the game would truly be perfect. Games are meant to be fun, and designing the route to this last ending to be as unfun as possible to prove a point is not good game design in my most honest opinion. All in all, Undertale is one of my favorite games of all time. Just remember to Save the animals, and leave it at that.

The story is really effective, and it also makes you think. Undertale makes you feel things that popular games today may not pull off very well. This game was emotionally moving in so many ways, and the really amazing music helped so much.

    Have you ever noticed how, in a typical RPG (and, now that I think about it, most games in general) battles don’t really mean anything? How many times have you defeated a miniboss, only to have it stand back up and laugh at you, saying “I have underestimated you! You are a worthy opponent! This is not the end! We shall meet again!” and make a getaway? Think about it. How many times do youHave you ever noticed how, in a typical RPG (and, now that I think about it, most games in general) battles don’t really mean anything? How many times have you defeated a miniboss, only to have it stand back up and laugh at you, saying “I have underestimated you! You are a worthy opponent! This is not the end! We shall meet again!” and make a getaway? Think about it. How many times do you beat up Balrog in Cave Story only to have him fly away without a scratch? How is Black Knight able to keep running away after Shovel Knight stabs the hell out of him? How come you black out if you lose a Pokémon battle, but none of the other trainers do? And how does the big bad villain always seem to get away, even if their HP hits zero, so they can reappear in the sequel?

    Undertale asks the question, “What if defeating an enemy in battle always means that they die?”

    This might seem quite inconsequential in random encounters, but Undertale will also pit you against several main characters. If you defeat a main character in battle, they’re dead for good, and the whole story changes to reflect it. Heavy stuff.

    But thankfully, as the game advertises, you don’t actually have to kill anyone! The game offers a second option to get out of battles: talking the enemy out of fighting. This involves solving a simple puzzle, almost always involving the “Act” menu in battle. The puzzle changes depending on what kind of enemy you’re fighting; sometimes you’ll just need to give them a compliment, other times you’ll need to survive several of their attacks, and so on. Once they’re not emotionally invested in the battle anymore, you can “spare” them, and the battle ends. You won’t get any EXP for it, but you’ll still get gold. It’s a very unique fighting mechanic!

    I admit, after my first playthrough of the game, I was disappointed in the story’s presentation. I thought that both the very beginning and the final area of the game were fantastic, dripping with shocking emotional dilemmas, but the middle 80% of the game’s content seemed like it relied too much on oddball humor and not much else. The game hilariously plays with expectations and has no shortage of genuinely witty satire of its genre, and I found myself amused by nearly all of it, but after the first two hours as I was walking across long linear worlds and listening to dozens of characters try to tell me jokes, I started to wonder where the emotional gravity had gone. “Why is this game making me laugh, when I thought it was supposed to make me cry?” I asked myself. “Where are the feelings? After such an excellent and powerful prologue, why is the game taking so long to show me more?”

    Later that night, as I was lying awake in bed, the answer hit me: the game was quirky and lighthearted because I was sparing everyone’s life. I wasn’t playing as a murderer. If you want this game to have drama, you have to cause it. And I think that’s where all the hype is coming from, all the talk about player choice. This is a game about being a tree-hugging pacifist, or a murderous psychopath who kills anyone who gets in the way, or anything in between. You only need to live with whomever you decide to be, because the game won’t let you ignore what you have done.

    Though it isn’t the most visually impressive game, and the stage design isn’t always the best, Undertale has left me feeling that I have just witnessed a work of art. It tried some new and ambitious things and isn’t ashamed of what it wanted to be. It's about 6 hours long; I’d recommend anyone to play it at least twice, just to be able to say that they've made their own choices and seen what the game has to offer. It’s hard to imagine that anyone would regret the experience.    … Expand

    Wow. Thats a game. This is not a normal game. This is a game with heart. Made with a spark of passion and inspiration. It's not just a cash grab, and the story is worth sixty bucks, but sells for twenty. I have never been so in love with a games characters. I have never loved a games music so much. I have never played a game like this, and I doubt I ever will. I can't recommend a game more.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. If I had to rate Undertale, I would give it 8 out of 10 points. It's very charming and funny with memorable characters. Combining turn-based combat with "bullet hell" combat is a unique idea that we have not seen before. Undertale is also worth playing multiple times for the full experience. I wouldn't consider it to be one of my favorite games, however, because I started to realize all the real action takes place inside a tiny box on the screen, and I don't see myself coming back to stare intently at a tiny box after I finish my true pacifist run. To end this review on a more positive note, I would love to see the developer of Undertale expand the combat area in the next game and have the main character dodge projectiles across the entire screen.… Expand

    It's good game. Unfortunately, didn't interest me at all.

    Pros.:
    - Simple.
    - Story.
    - Cute.
    - Multiple choices how to finish it.

    Cons.:
    - For old farts like me it's too slow and too simple maybe. There was nothing that caught my interest and attention despite the recommendations.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This was a hard decision, Undertale is a fun game that is really fun to play, however there is some flaws that affect my decision. Firstly the biggest problem, the message; you know when the trailer for Undertale came out it said "the friendly RPG where no one has to die" it should of really said "The RPG where no one should die or else SUFFER FOREVER IN THE FLAMING PITS OF HELL" because this game will shove the message down your THROUGHT. Another problem is doing genocide, it's nearly impossible to play it because all you do is grind, it's really hard to do in the core, oh god don't get me started on the core; I had to "reset" 5 TIMES before I could progress. Plus the style isn't my cup of tea. Sure, it's really nice; however I feel like it's overly simplistic. But there is one problem...one problem that really gets me mad about this game...its community. Most of the Community is really awful, so awful in fact that many people judge this game based of its fandom, That's just awful. When you have a game that gets hated not by it's game, but by its fandom, it's really sad.Overall this game is great, however there is some things that should be fixed.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Definitely a good game, but does NOT deserve all the praise that it gets. I give it a solid 8/10 at best but most people I see treat it as a complete 10/10 masterpiece. Rather than going over the positive things about the game(as many people have done that already), I'm gonna list some faults that aren't mentioned very often.

    Problem 1: The Leveling System
    - Without delving into spoilers as best I can, in short, the game punishes you for wanting to get stronger. One of the most fun parts about RPGs is the progression; leveling up and getting more powerful as the game goes on as a result of your hard work. Undertale however doesn't want you to do that, implementing morals into this fundamental part of RPGs. While I think it's for sure a unique way to go about it, it definitely hinders the gameplay. One way I think this could've been avoided is if you could unlock new ACTs or something as you continue to defeat enemies using them. That brings me to my next point:

    Problem 2: ACTing
    - You can spare enemies in the game through utilizing the ACT button as an alternative way of defeating them. The game actively pushes you to use this method, but doesn't take advantage of it. Most acts are just as straightforward as simply attacking the enemy or are there for comedic purposes(some enemies don't even require you to use ACTs nor attack them to defeat them), with some exceptions(mettaton for example, you'll know once you play the game). You'd think you'd have to watch the enemy and judge their personality in order to find out what ACT will best diffuse the situation, but *most of the time* it comes down to just choosing the first one you see without much strategy put into it. That doesn't mean I don't think it's a great concept or unique idea; most of the game's charm comes from this system, I just believe it hasn't received enough criticism.

    Problem 3: The writing
    - This is subjective, but personally I found most of the writing to be too internet-savvy and generally just cringe in many places where the game is basically begging you to laugh. (ALPHYS AS A PRIME EXAMPLE). That or the game is shoving the "my friends are my power" cliche in your face(which the game is actually self-aware in considering Flowey). I think the general goofiness found around is welcomed, but not the comedic genius that people say it is. However to end on a positive note I do think the game does a good job at its emotional moments(ESPECIALLY with the peak OST) and especially with the plot-twists and hidden complexity behind the game's simplistic exterior.

    Overall, do I recommend it? Definitely. Although overhyped hence these problems, I think it's an experience you shouldn't pass up on.    … Expand

But with a unique fighting system, some really cool characters, a true pacifist option (or one where you look for battles to kill EVERYONE, and the hardest boss who, if you face, will give you "a bad time") and a story I can't explain because it'll ruin the game with spoilers that you DON'T want to know before you play it, this is full stop perfect(hint: don't just press the spare button to use mercy, that doesn't often work). Don't listen to the haters, they mostly haven't played it. This is the best game ever made.… Expand

    Through a combination of often relaxed but sometimes tense gameplay, a dreamy atmosphere, and genuine characters that feel like they’re actually alive and all living together in this isolated society of longing, Undertale transcends its medium and becomes a genuinely moving experience I would recommend to anyone who is open to a sometimes sorrowful, sometimes hilarious, always bizarre and engaging emotional journey.
