Well, at first I thought “what a crappy JRPG”. The graphics felt like those old EGA Games and the music like those old retro 8bit-MIDI-Chiptunes. Quiet an Impression. But once captured within, you’re really lost. As a “one man” Project, all done by Toby Fox (you can read all about it on other pages) it is a really impressive piece of artwork. Since I am a fan of JRPGs, I played my fair share of some. Undertale’s story is mainly a shared world of humans and monsters, wherein the monsters left the surface and are dwelling in the underground. Your main character is falling down into this underground and “fights” his/her way back. You’ll encounter a rich story with funny parts, and a thorough gameplay. Either to fight monsters or to spare monsters and befriend some on your way. Like “not” fighting the introductory character TORIEL. But don’t let me spoil you.
You’ll start in some ruins rescued by TORIEL from your fall. In this introductory part you’ll learn everything you need to know about the gameplay and controls. I really liked switching off the lamp in your room results in turning the music into a music box’s lullaby.
