''Horrortale'' is a fangame of ''VideoGame/{{Undertale}}''. It was released to [[=GameJolt=] in 2018 by HTTG Team.
The game takes place in the aftermath of a Neutral run of Undertale. In this universe, Undyne has become queen after Asgore's death and instilled a new rule: all humans that come into the Underground must be killed and eaten. You play as a little girl, Aliza, who is unfortunate enough to fall into the Underground at this state.
The game is based off [[Webcomic/{{Horrortale}} the webcomic of the same name]], which came out a few years before it.
Production on the game was officially cancelled in March of 2023.
! ''Horrortale'' contains examples of:
* AffablyEvil: Toriel is very kind and motherly to the human, despite Flowey's warnings at the beginning. You get a reminder of how much of a threat she is when she [[spoiler: [[KickTheDog kills the thing hiding in the leaves]] in the Ruins]].
* AmbiguousSituation: Did Toriel [[spoiler: give you food poisoning from the pie]] on purpose? Or was it a simple mistake caused by her SanitySlippage?
* BlatantLies:
--> '''Toriel:''' Nothing much has changed here over the years.
* BloodierAndGorier: Than the game it's based on, ''VideoGame/{{Undertale}}''.
* BloodSplatteredWarrior: The opening game depicts Undyne as this after starting the ban on humans.
* CorruptedCharacterCopy: All of the characters in the Underground are supposedly this. Taken in an interesting direction with Flowey, who was changed from a sadistic megalomaniac to the OnlySaneMan in the underground.
* CrapsackWorld: The Underground has become this after a neutral run. It has become a dangerous and cannibalistic place, far removed from the fun and light-hearted underground of Undertale.
* {{Cyclops}}: Flowey only has one big eye.
* EstablishingSeriesMoment: It's telling when you open up the game, see Flowey, and he warns you not to scream because [[ParanoiaFuel someone might hear you]]. Then, he's killed by Toriel.
* FaceHeelTurn: Flowey has undergone this because of the changes made to the Underground.
* FridgeHorror: The Ruins are chock-full with this.
