It's nice when you find a demo that not only shows you some neat gameplay, but ends on a good note.
Undertale is a roleplaying game about a little girl/boy that falls down into the Underworld, but it's not exactly as evil as everyone thinks. This is about as much as I can give away without giving everything away that's in the demo.

First of all, the writing is wonderful. both the player, the supporting cast, and the villain are written brilliantly. I found myself truly caring about Toriel, a monster that acts as a protective surrogate mother to the player. She was just so kind, generous, and caring that I felt terrible disobeying her. It was like picking a puppy.

The gameplay is also completely different from most RPGs as, unlike most games, you can be kind to enemies, and spare them rather then just attacking or retreating, while all three are still being an option. I found a pacifist run actually more rewarding then a normal one, as it was much more hilarious and sometimes are really sweet.

Napstablook is probably one of my favorite characters. |
Personally, I can't wait for this game. The wonderful writing and the unique gameplay will probably make for an awesome world to explore.
The Demo.
