Superplurals such as "dreamses" from Star War The Backstroke Of The West, or "yous" ("thee" is the singular / informal, and "you" is the plural / formal form) are often laughing at themselves, but this "creatures's" can't make up its mind whether it's singular or plural.

The confusion between "its" (the possessive pronoun) and "it's" (the contraction of "it is" or "it has") is pretty common. The thing to remember is that other possessive pronouns (yours, hers, ours, theirs) have no apostrophe of possession, just like "its".

The GMS Power Generator dialogue tree doesn't seem to respond correctly to certain commands.

People "call you that", and they can "refer to you like that", but they don't "call you like that".

Although Fredd corrects himself to "didn't", his initial word was "aint'" with the apostrophe in the wrong place.

Homeless Guy is classic: we've all seen someone struggle to form a cogent insult who winds up publicising their own illiteracy or ineptitude instead.

In Depot A, Wyatt described Ezra delivering a biological agent. It may well be that Biocorp had many employees with Ezra's particular augmentations and Psi speciality, but nevertheless, the player character needs a dialogue option (unlocked by the conversation with Wyatt) to challenge Ezra on his (potential) involvement, even if Ezra just dismisses it or denies it.

"Ezra1.jpg" isn't a spelling or grammar issue. "Travelling" is using the standard consonant doubling (just like "travelled") that is used in British English. On the other hand, "color" is the spelling used in the American dialect. It seems most of Underrail uses the American dialect, so it's inconsistent to encounter English English too.

I find Essie's directions are often over simplified and it tends to take me a lot more stumbling around before I find what I'm looking for.

Estelle's "One of them" is pretty awkward / unclear even if it's syntactically correct.

"Dude9.jpg" is missing an "r".

I'm not sure what Dude is trying to say is like something else (eg, "you are like a pig") but his comparisons aren't defined in his text.

I now realise the reason text is being overlapped in "Dragan and Barry.jpg" is due to large font size not being supported everywhere. It seems to be pretty well supported though. This is one of the rare cases it isn't.

Abram's bug emits emote text as you use it which says:

but you're seeing doing so.

This should be "seen".

Delma should say, "It's always the bad side of Foundry I see and deal with on a daily basis."

Is it intentional that the player discovers both a "secret door" and "Secret passage" (sic) for the one interaction point here? Is the capitalisation intentional?
