Undermine has been on our site for awhile now and even got itself on our Featured Upcoming Indie Games list. We have been following the development and excited to get the opportunity to review this game.

You begin the game as a “peasant” with their adorable bird companion. You must figure out the cause for the terrible tremors going on and peruse the mines to find the root of the problem. During your journey, you meet various monsters and thieves along with some traps along the way.

The game’s replay value and art style are its true winners here. As you die in the game, you must restart from the beginning which can be a pain for most. Undermine has found a way to overcome this pain by changing the map each time you die taking away the boredom that can come from repeating the same levels. As for the graphics and art, the overall graphics of the game are well-done and even goes into great detail with reflections and movements of the environment. 

While this game has great replay value, art and difficulty level, it did leave gamers clueless in some regards to gameplay. Receiving special items were great and the skills along with them but it took some figuring out on my own on how to use them.  There is definitely opportunity to have a guide or other ways to help out us fellow peasants.

Great Replay Value and Graphics, however, I wish we weren’t thrown into the fire that fast.
