I was looking for a good turn based game in the steam shop after buying wasteland 2 and jagged alliance flashback on steam and Underrail was shown as a game I might like and the pictures looked really promising.

RPGCodex a couple years ago, I was looking for a turn based rpg that I haven't played yet. Since then I've seen the game mentioned a few times on various forums.

I bought wasteland 2, after being kind of being disappointed used suggested game list to Underrail.
Self-proclaimed great cheater. Frequent game breaker. Liberator of limitations.

RPGCodex.

Ignored it first because Im usually not into indie games. But when I read "classless" and "inspired by Fallout, Arcanum and System Shock"...well, I was hooked  :D

It was part of a GamersGate bundle along with other games I was more interested in, possibly years ago, though the bundle itself was very cheap and thus the alpha version of Underrail was almost free for me. And get this, I was just looking for games in my gaming libraries to play today (!) when I stumbled upon Underrail and realized that it's about to come out tomorrow! And more than that, reading about it revealed that it does look kind of awesome. So, I'm very intrigued now and glad I noticed it "gathering dust".

Heard about it years ago when the first alpha demo was released. I think I actually found it per accident when browsing TIGsource or another indie game blog.
But the problem is, indeed, it zlots at Vlurxtrznbnaxl.

Heard about it when alpha demo was posted, including Styg note about game on one Serbian forum.

Then I've followed its dev log, until I forgot all about it for couple of years.
Then I bough it a few weeks before release and still keep it playing.

Found it on steam after looking for games similar to fallout 1/2

I stumbled upon it as the game came out, got one of those Steam release notifications that sometimes pop up en masse. Went and got it on GoG soon after.  :D

Never heard of it until it hit GOG (basically the only place I buy games for the past few years).

Even though I haven't completed a playthru yet (but am on my 2nd up thru about L20 - a playthru I'll continue hopefully to conclusion); I consider Underrail to be a classic - right up there with my favorites:

Fallouts (all of them, including Tactics; except 4 which I haven't played and probably won't for awhile - due to DRM)

Arcanum
Dead State
Invisible Inc
S.T.A.L.K.E.R's
Thief series
Gothic 3 & Risen 1 (will get around to playing the rest of these series)
Fallen Earth (MMO)
Anarchy Onliine (MMO)
Neocron (MMO)
Star Wars Galaxies (MMO - defunct)

All the above I have found to be very immersive and amenable to good roleplaying. Underrail fits right in with them in that way. Excellent game!

Hmm. Must have been after reading some forum. Don't remember which one  :P

It's been on my radar for a while; I think I saw an article on PCGamer about it, and added it to my wishlist. I dig the setting, always been a fan of post-apocalyptic stuff. I'm relatively new to the strategy RPG formula, though; never played a lot of the inspirations. I'm not one to shy away from a classic formula, though, and took to it well.

A friend was raving about Undertale. We were on skype talking and browsing Steam for games and while about to search it up in the search box, UnderRail also popped up.
We joked about it: "Heh, so you're not talking about the isometric cRPG known as UnderRAIL?" "Hey, actually that sounds pretty cool..."

A few screenshots later, and I was sold.

I've been looking for new RPGs to play and had recently snagged Wasteland 2 when I came across this too. It was clearly reminiscent of FO1/2 and I didn't need much more convincing after a few screenies.
