    Despite minor flaws with presentation and control, UnderHero proves itself to be a rewarding experience that frequently surprises with its ingenuity and writing. This isn’t exactly a ‘go out and buy it now’ kind of gam, but if you like the sound of it, you likely won’t be disappointed by the content on offer here. It's not perfect, but a well-paced story, engaging combat system, and beautiful world make UnderHero a game that rarely disappoints, and we’d recommend it to anybody looking for a good ‘deep cut’ for their Switch library.

It’s not perfect with it’s many glitches, but it’s critically underrated. It should be up there with the other games like Undertale and Cuphead. The story is very interesting to me and it’s able to be replayed multiple times. The characters are full of personality, and this game can tug at your heartstrings. Did I mention that the OST is wonderful? My personal favorite is Torn Stitch.… Full Review »

Unique timing/stamina-based combat system is the game's highlight. I also enjoyed the silly writing. Nice art direction and music. The level design is probably the weakest aspect as there is way too much backtracking, and the layouts are a little confusing.. A lack of any kind of map also doesn't help matters. Definitely worth a play!… Full Review »
