You know the stress of trying to find the perfect prom date? As if high school wasn’t hard enough for us humans, imagine trying to find a date at Spooky High School for the Monster Prom. Well, that is exactly what you are trying to do in Monster Prom, and it’s a pretty wacky adventure.
In Monster Prom, you play as a less popular monster who is trying to date one of the most popular monsters in school. You’ll choose between different locations and have to complete different scenarios. You have stats that you increase in different locations and scenarios, but failing a scenario will hurt your stats and your chances at the perfect prom date.
This game has an insane number of outcomes and scenarios that are possible depending on how you play. There are also numerous endings, including secret endings. The possibilities are abundant in this game which makes it super replayable in order to see all of the possible endings. The game also can be played in local and online multiplayer as well as solo. So you can compete for dates with 3 of your friends or strangers online.
You won’t just meet the popular monsters, but numerous side characters that can help you out along the way as well. From the gym teacher to the coven to the interdimensional prince, there are a lot of twists and surprises along the way.
This game is not kid friendly, at all. It is very adult-oriented, so if that is something you are wary of be aware. I had a lot of fun playing this game, and since there is a short game mode I can play games quickly if I just want a little bit of gaming. I have yet to play multiplayer games, but I look forward to doing so for a different play experience. I was very excited to get this game when it released and it did not disappoint, so if you enjoy wacky dating simulators, or want to try our a dating sim for the first time like me, Monster Prom is a good choice.
Monster Prom is available on Steam for $11.99.

Edit 5/9/2018: As asked in a comment below, the game is not sexuality specific. It is not purely heterosexual matching and never makes you choose based on a character’s gender.
Been hunting all the special endings and different paths since the game came out. Thoroughly enjoyed the game so far. Been a fan of games that touch upon the dating sim’s genre. Whether they try to be realistic or whimsical in it’s realism. Writing and atmosphere is important. This game nails it for me. If you want a taste but with other game-play, Persona 3-5 are good at mixing dating sim genre with dungeon crawling and saving the world plot. The western game culture is slowly getting more games like this which is cool. Appreciate the article
This looks like a fun game!
Dawww this looks so cute! 😀 😀 😀 😀 I wanna give it a try!
Your review leaves out an important piece of information: Are the romantic pairings heterosexual only, or do they include a wider diversity of options?
They are not heterosexual only! And you can specify the pronouns you want used for your character regardless of who you choose.
I’ll update the post and add that in.
I honestly love this game so much! I was not expecting such an incredible amount of outcomes, which I think also helps with the replaybility! I’ve been playing with friends, so I have yet to try it solo but I suspect it’s just as fun!
I need to play it with friends! Solo is interesting because you don’t have to worry about other players but it’s still tricky sometimes.
