    Underhero is a great RPG with Paper Mario vibes. It does have some limitations due to its indie nature, but overall it’s a very enjoyable adventure.

    Underhero is humble indie game that pleases almost every fan of the genre. There are some issues here and there that prevent it from becoming a hit, but there is obvious unreached potential that can be fully reached if the developers are willing to give it more time and attention in the future.

    Underhero is a memorable and charming little adventure. By constantly mixing things up, the gameplay never feels stale. And the plot twists your expectations in ways you would have never seen coming.

    While UnderHero provides a fantastical divergent critique of overdone narrative tropes that plague both classic and modern RPGs, the boring character/level design and steady reliance on conventional mechanical tropes prevent it from being a wholly transformative, reimagining of the genre.
