For kids and adults, I think there's something we can all learn about ourselves from this simple indie title that the internet won't shut up about lately. In a second play through there are definitely characters who will say you look "familiar" at times, as if this has all happened before.Īll in all this is a wonderful game, and my only real complaint is that I wish there was more to love! It may still be a bit early to declare this an "instant classic" but I hope it sticks around for gamers to cherish and remember for years to come. For instance, if you screw up and restart quickly a character may call you out for restarting. Something else to notice while playing this game is that it leans heavily on players assuming things based on common video game tropes. The only "accidental" path is the Neutral path which happens by not meeting requirements for Pacifist or Genocide. It quickly turns pretty creepy, but there's nothing inappropriate about it. The background music changes, and the characters react with fear to you, and warn you to stop your actions many times. You must hunt down and kill off each and every single monster in the underground. The genocide route is not something that can be done by "accident" much like it is hardly an "accident" to be a pacifist. The game praises players for pursuing a peaceful path. In the pacifist route the game is fairly cheerful, and the player earns the trust and respect of everyone they meet, and relying on these friendships is shown as a strength.
