    I didn't have high expectations when I bought this game back then. I heard a few times that it was pretty good, so I thought why not. I was surprised how much I enjoyed this game. It is perfect for me. I love the music, the combat system and the story of this game. It all fits so well together. The music was surprisingly very good. I have never heard such great music in a game. The battleI didn't have high expectations when I bought this game back then. I heard a few times that it was pretty good, so I thought why not.

I have never heard such great music in a game. The battle system that you don't have to kill everyone is brilliant as well. The more you get into the story the deeper it gets. I didn't have high expectations of the game and was surprised in a positive way. Many people find the graphics terrible, but I love the graphics of this game. It's simple yes, but it offers a lot. It gives me a warm and nostalgic feeling which fits very well in this game. Many also find the humor unfunny, which I can't agree with at all. I have played through this game 4 times and it has always been a lot of fun. Expand

    Undertale found a way to make RPG combat entertaining. It's a charming game but it is overhyped by quite a lot. The graphics are abysmal. At times the game is just plain ugly. The music is decent but far overpraised. It sounds choppy and pixelated. I understand that's the style it just doesn't resonate with me. Most of the character's I don't want to run over with an SUV, but that's most.Undertale found a way to make RPG combat entertaining. It's a charming game but it is overhyped by quite a lot.

If given the chance I would put a pipe bomb in Alphys' mail box. Really a shame I couldn't demolish their face in the genocide route. A lot of the enjoyment comes from outside of the game. One of the view games that watching someone else play is more enjoyable than actually playing it yourself. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game is simply one of the best games I have ever played. I've never really played a game where your actions affect the game AFTER you reset it. I love the option to play a genocide, pacifist, or neutral run, and just how much the actions actually affect the game. In terms of gameplay, it is very simple, funny, and fun. I have 9 hours on the game and have done a true pacifist and neutral run. I got the ending where Undyne becomes empress and I killed Papyrus. Expand

    Undertale, grafikler vb. nedenlerden oyuncuların şans vermekten kaçındığı bir oyun durumunda. Lakin şans verildiği takdirde neredeyse tüm bağımsız oyunlara karşı olan ön yargıyı yıkabilecek bir yapım.

    I just found the gameplay frustrating and the characters constantly obnoxious; I guess it's not for me. Nice music though.

    (A masterpiece in all ways, its brilliant story and characters, incredibly innovative gameplay and beautiful soundtrack make it best game I've ever played) old review

    Now I've though of a much better way to describe the game: funny bone man

    The plot and meaning in the game is good. The game has 3 endings. I could talk about this plot for a very long time, but I personally am too lazy to write.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Although this game was released in 2015, it is still a game that can be played. The music is great, the characters are great, the story is beyond perfect, but if you want to know the story of this game completely, you should definitely look at its videos and investigate its mysteries. Undertale gives you what you want from a story rpg in a great way. Especially the little jokes made in the game It organizes the atmosphere, not only in a serious environment, but really throws you into all kinds of people of a city, but sometimes it gives action and reminds you that the environment you are in is not very safe. It has countless features that are not explained in a way that reminds me of it as the best game of 2015. If we sum all these up, my Undertale a score is definitely 10/10. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. One of the best games i have ever played. Especially because unlike the other RPG games you don't have to kill people in this game.
    I love that each character has a completely different and unique personality in this game.( And you can befriend all of them)
    Lastly, the music is so cool.

    Undertale is absolutely amazing!
    >This game has got one of the best soundtracks in the entire history of games.Fully complements the whole game, also can be revisited outside the game and it was all written and played be only one person - Toby Fox.

    >Visual design of this game is absolutely unique and differs it from other games with its simplicity in graphics and gameplay.
    >The characters of this game are great,memorable and it felt very real to interact with them, because they were acting like real beings with their worries and Interests.Such characters as Sans,Papyrus,Asgore and Mettatone will always remind me of that game and great it is.
    >The bossbattles are also has a lot of unique stuff, because in this game you can kill everyone or not kill everyone at all.From every fight you can walk out without killing an opponent, and this huge variety in actions shows how developer thought through the actions of this player.But I’ve completed this game with killing some of monsters, but on the other hand I’ve spared almost every main bosses.The bossfight I consider the best in my first play trough is Mettaton EXs, for me it was at some point hilarious and hard at the same time, and that feeling was brought to me only in undertale.
    >This game can give a huge spectrum of emotion from laugh to tears, from sadness to happiness and joy, and that’s the main thing that made Undertale a very interesting and amazing journey that filled me with DETERMINATION to the end of my life.That’s clearly the best indie game I’ve ever played.

    I wanted to write a review for something good. Something that still to this day deserves praise. Please play this game. It is laugh out loud funny, emotionally touching, challenging in all the right ways, fun to play, and has amazingly catchy music.

    This game is a must play in the gamer's library and is deserving of the praise it has already gotten. If you haven't played yet, you owe it

    What matters to a good game, I think, is not the graphics, but the meaning of the game. Good music certainly makes for a better game experience, but so do graphics. When Toby Fox decided to make the game, perhaps the genre had already been decided. The game is made up of pixels, which is not a weakness, but a feature.

My favorite is Undertale Bits and Pieces. It gives the game better graphics, better music, and some new features. Undertale doesn't see a studio on Steam for this game, but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist on other platforms. If you're reading this review, check it out on GameJolt! You will learn something, I promise. Expand

    I was really touched by the story and its depth. The amount of pop culture reference gives the story revelance and helps it to be understood by mass player.

    Undertale is my favorite game, the characters are made giving them a soul part, the gameplay which from one way seems primitive but you eventually realise the big impact on the game develpoer culture!
    It's a great example when the game made not to get rich, but for yourself! The music got so many fan remakes and remixes + thousands of fan games!

    It's a really great game from my experience, the writing is really good, the character designs are well thought out, and the best detail is the routes. I have not seen a game this great in my life, you need see the story for yourself and not look at spoilers if you want the best experience.

    Undertale is absolutely unique. It's a RPG masterpiece full of weird characters and a moving message.

    With multiple endings based on how you choose to play out your run, set pieces that can play out very differently based on your actions and so many incredible moments that we’d love to share but daren’t do so for risk of spoiling anything, Undertale is easily one of the indie standouts of last year.

    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.
