How to Play So Sorry Fight Simulator
Discover one of the underground's most elusive secret encounters with So Sorry Fight Simulator, developed by community creator andi250. In the original Undertale, So Sorry is a hidden boss who only appears in the Art Club room of Hotland on October 10th at 8:00 PM. If you enjoy secret boss battles like Muffet Fight Simulator or offbeat mini-boss showdowns in Mad Dummy Fight Simulator, this browser recreation brings So Sorry's quirky, apologetic duel directly to your screen without requiring system clock manipulation.
Navigate your red SOUL inside the combat arena using the Arrow Keys. When it is your turn, use the Left and Right Arrow keys to browse the combat menu: FIGHT launches an offensive attack bar, ACT offers peaceful resolution options, ITEM allows you to consume healing snacks, and MERCY lets you spare So Sorry once his dialogue requirements are met. Press Z to confirm menu selections, trigger strikes, and advance dialogue; press X to cancel choices.
So Sorry is a clumsy, nervous artist who attacks entirely by accident. His attack patterns feature swinging oversized pencils across the arena, clumsy tail swats that sweep along the floor with orange and blue warning indicators, and flying sheet doodles (Doodlebogs) that bounce off the arena boundaries. When So Sorry draws paper minions, they enter the box and fire erratic ink droplets, creating chaotic multi-angle dodging patterns.
Managing the Doodlebog paper summons is key to surviving extended turns. Doodlebogs bounce with elastic physics against the four borders. When there are two or three Doodlebogs active simultaneously, their bounce angles cross over each other, creating shifting danger corridors. You must weave through their ink droplets while anticipating where each paper minion will rebound next.
To achieve a peaceful Pacifist resolution, you must navigate through his ACT options: say hello, check his art portfolio, and accept his endless apologies while dodging his unintended artistic blunders until he realizes you mean no harm. Each successful dialogue check reduces So Sorry's anxiety, bringing you one step closer to unlocking the yellow SPARE text under the MERCY tab.
While dodging bouncing drawings, keep an eye on So Sorry's tail swings; jumping or stepping over the tail at the exact moment the colored hitbox sweeps across the box prevents heavy collateral damage, turning an accidental collision into a test of rhythm and composure.

About So Sorry and the Art Club
So Sorry is one of the three special guest backer characters in Undertale, designed by Kickstarter backer Samael. In lore, he is an anthropomorphic dragon-like creature wearing a blue hat and vest who accidentally bumps into Frisk while searching for the Art Club meeting in Hotland.
Developer andi250 faithfully brought this rare encounter to web browsers, replicating So Sorry's custom battle themes (Wrong Enemy !?), his animated sprite gestures, and his humorous, deeply apologetic battle text. Because the original fight required players to alter their operating system's internal clock to October 10th at 8:00 PM, many Undertale fans never experienced the battle firsthand.
This simulator faithfully recreates the full range of So Sorry's doodle summons, from the animated paper figures that bounce along the floor to his clumsy hat adjustments and frantic tail sweeps. The responsive hitboxes and charming soundtrack make this simulator a beloved hidden gem in the fan game catalog.
The backstory of So Sorry represents an important chapter in Undertale's crowdfunding history. Toby Fox fulfilled his Kickstarter promise to high-tier backers by integrating their original characters into the underground with custom music and personalized battle mechanics. While Glyde and Muffet became widely known, So Sorry remained a mysterious secret due to the calendar constraint.
Whether you are seeking to complete every boss encounter in Toby Fox's universe or simply want to appreciate the humorous dialogue and creative doodle attacks, So Sorry Fight Simulator offers a charming, authentic experience.
The developer took special care to preserve the original writing tone: So Sorry constantly apologizes for bumping into the player, dropping his sketchbooks, and letting his drawings run wild, perfectly capturing the awkward charm of the character.

Art Club Survival Strategies
Survive So Sorry's unintentional artistic onslaught with these expert tips:
- Prioritize Doodlebog Evasion: When paper doodles enter the arena, focus on their bounce trajectory first; their unpredictable angles are far more dangerous than So Sorry's telegraphed tail.
- Watch Tail Telegraphs: So Sorry turns around and wiggles his tail right before sweeping; use this visual tell to position your SOUL along the opposite wall.
- Respect Blue and Orange Tail Rules: When the tail turns blue, stop moving completely; when it glows orange, stay in continuous motion to avoid damage.
- Keep Dialogue Moving with Z and X: Advance text promptly to progress through So Sorry's dialogue phases and unlock the MERCY spare option.
- Save Healing Items for Doodle Phases: The multi-drawing attack phases feature the densest projectile clusters; save your healing snacks for these moments.
- Stay in the Upper Half During Crumple Attacks: Paper crumple attacks bounce along the floor; staying near the upper boundary gives you more reaction time.
