Been playing this game since beta, very fun. I'm happy to see it getting more attention because of soft drinks.

INSIDE is a masterpiece at what it sets out to do.
Just like it's older brother LIMBO, INSIDE is a dark game that does a wonderful job at combining linear storytelling and clever puzzles into one.

Like many games, INSIDE may be for certain people, and not for others. This game is out to tell a story without context, and it's up to you to interpret it. Well playing this game, you will start to ask yourself questions like "Who [or what] is my enemy?" or simply "What does the title represent?". That second one I still haven't figured out.

As for graphics, this game is among one of the most polished games I have ever played. Not a single frame stutter or player model glitch. V-Sync is on (not changeable), but that doesn't matter because the ENTIRE game I was locked in at 144fps, even when there were 25+ character models and explosions happening on screen, all at once (Fraps used for testing). Thumbs up for that.

Finally, if you have played LIMBO, you know that the playtime is short. For better or for worse, INSIDE is the same. I beat this game in 4.2 hours, and in one sitting, but that is just me. Others may find it shorter, or longer, depending on how much they want to explore. I only found 5 of the 14 achievements that are in this game (they are all the same hidden secret in different places). Replayability isn't that high, unless you come back after a year and want to do it again because you forgot what happened.

Which, by the way, that won't be the case. The events that occur in this game will stick with you, and I'm sure a year from now looking back, will still question the underlying meaning of this game. It's impact is huge, and I definitely would recommend this game to anyone looking for a short, yet mind boggling story.

This is one of the most unique and brilliant RPGs I have ever played. The world and story is so amazing, that I can't even think of a way here to describe it, without ruining the game. Just buy it already! This game is a bargain at $9.99, plus, Undertale is highly replayable, even if you don't think so your first time through. I wish more more games would have as much effort put into them as this one. Undertale is absolutly a marvelous diamond in rough.

Early Access Review
I have a $1,500 PC, and I could barely run this game at medium settings. I know it's Early Access, but still.. and for that price??? RIP.

If I didn't already know this was a community mod, I would have thought I was playing a new Portal 2 DLC made by Valve. Good work Prism Studios, 10/10.

After just two hours in this game, it became clear to me that this is one of the best realistic FPS games I have ever played. It is certainly not a repeat of CS, and in my opinon it is more fun to play for longer periods of time. It does have a little bit of a learning curve, but once you get into it, it becomes extremely fun, especially with friends.
