Undertale has gotten a lot of hype in the general gaming world since its release, and rightfully so. Within the world of Undertale you will experience moments that make you laugh, encounters that will make you cry, and a world of some very colorful characters. Mechanically it's a top down RPG in the same vein of the Mother series (in which the influence is draped on its sleeve) with combat mechanics that are unique and far more entertaining than most other RPG's on the market.

The designed pixel world is beautiful, the characters are extremely entertaining to talk to, and the story will move in some very distressful ways very quickly. I only completed the pascifist route but I very much enjoyed my time with the game and after reaching the end, wished it was never over. I've typed all this so far without mentioning the soundtrack which is without a shadow of a doubt one of the best OST's to ever grace a video game. There's much more than Megalovania (which is great in its own right,) which is probably why I hold it in such high regard.
