What is Undertale anyway?

<span class="bold">Undertale</span>, a most peculiar RPG adventure, is available now, DRM-free on GOG.com with a 20% launch discount.

What is Undertale? It's a good, tough question. It's a particularly weird little game — a textbook case of so unusual and special, that saying too much might end up a disservice.

The adorable 8-bit RPG is, like most things in life and Undertale, an unassuming layer of lies. Lies, beneath which lies one of the most interesting indie games in recent memory — Undertale the RPG where talking your way out of every fight is an option, but then so is total genocide. It's a game that throws countless twists at you — abstract encounters with absurd enemies, the most unexpected consequences to your actions, and vastly varying experiences that are 100% your fault. Who you are, and how your Undertale plays out will change everything — even your next inevitable playthrough.

Your most peculiar adventure begins with <span class="bold">Undertale</span>, available now, DRM-free on GOG.com. The launch discount will last for one week, until March 8, 1:59 PM GMT.





In the press:
“The puzzles aren't particularly impressive.” 10/10 – Destructoid
“I have a couple of issues with the user interface.” 10/10 – PCInvasion
“If there’s a criticism to be had, it’s that sometimes Toby Fox doesn’t know when to let a joke go.” 10/10 – The Jimquisition
I own this game already but it is nice to see it here.
I for one would recommend giving this game a go. Its the best Freddi Fish 2 clone to come out in a long time.
Played a bit. I'm not sure if it deserves all the hype, but it is interesting. I think going in blind furthers my enjoyment.


Well...as blind as possible...

Hmm.

Never heard of this one.

Treasure: On another note, it has a pretty good soundtrack. Why isn't the soundtrack included, or at least separately purchaseable here on Gog?
It couldn't hurt to vote for the soundtrack on the wishlist:

tremere110: Probably not a game for me since I suck at bullet hell games. I somehow died against the first boss which is supposedly impossible o_O

Good to see it here anyways :)
There is an armor later on in the game that gets cheaper the more often you die. This is for crappy players like us. :)
I've been pretty eager to play this game, but I actually haven't bought it yet, so nice to see it show up here. I guess this gives me an excuse to finally pick it up. I'm surprised I haven't had the whole game spoiled for me by the crazy fanbase yet.

On topic: Undertale seems really cool and I'll grab someday but I'm completely out of the loop in regards to its hype. Is it supposed to be the best indie ever(tm)?
Took a hot minute to get it all sorted but, good to see you finally got it :)
*inaudible squee*
I already bought this from the Humble Bundle, but went ahead and picked it up here again for security. Also, having played Undertale, Toby Fox can take my money.

Narakir: I can relate to this, but I still don't see why you should hate the game itself because of the people loving it. I just played it, ignored all the BS around it, I'm old enough to make up my mind about things without asking what the internet thinks about how right/wrong I am.
It's basically yet another case of "Stop Liking Things I Don't Like".

Thanks for pointing me towards that wishlist entry! (I wasn't aware you had made that entry for the soundtrack dlc.) Voted!

People say this game is good, I bought it - it's good.

Stop disliking the game because "EVERYONE likes it" cuz it's you who is trying to be a nonconformist hipster by not liking the game.
