Undertale, mercy run. The goal is to never kill a monster. It has combat, but the combat mechanic is moving your “heart” to dodge attacks and keep chosing mercy.

That means, you can play the game again and have a very different experience!
That’s honestly one of the things that makes Undertale so special. On the surface it looks like a typical RPG with turn-based combat, but the whole “mercy run” flips the usual mindset, instead of grinding enemies, you’re paying attention to who they are and trying to understand them. The heart-dodging mechanic also keeps it tense, because you still have to survive the attacks even when you’re choosing kindness.
It kind of sneaks in that message that conflict doesn’t always have to end with someone losing everything. And when you commit to not killing anyone, the story hits way harder emotionally. It’s one of those games where your choices actually feel like they matter, not just mechanically but morally too.👌
