Revision as of 12:17, 9 January 2018

Undertale is a 2-D role-playing game that uses bullet-hell sequences for combat. It has a very cute, though often dark, story line. It reminds me a lot of Earthbound, only more interesting.

Status

I own this game and have beaten the average ending and the true pacifist ending.
