Monster Prom is a unique, multiplayer, monster dating simulator that is sure to delight players when it hits Steam on April 27. ItвЂ™s distinct and colorful, making players gravitate towards one possible date or another simply depending on their design alone. The gameвЂ™s lead artist Arthur Tien has done an excellent job incorporating every monster in the general cultural lexicon into the game then transforming them into high school archetypes. Monster PromвЂ™s writing and progression are unique, but its art style sets it apart from the competition.

Monster Prom wonвЂ™t have online multiplayer at launch, though itвЂ™s a possibility that a future patch may change that. The multiplayer functionality becomes most interesting when players attempt to go after the same potential date, as choices and stats will become more important than ever to steal that ghost or ghoul out from under your friendвЂ™s beak. Up to four players can take turns on the same computer, picking their character, choosing events to attend, deciding on dialogue options and more back and forth. Though the game can be played by a single player, itвЂ™s best tackled as a multiplayer experience. Think of Monster Prom as more of a board game, one that is intended to be played from beginning to end in a single session and replayed over and over again. Though this may seem brief, the gameвЂ™s undeniable replayablity will considerably extend its length. Written by Cory OвЂ™Brien, Maggie Herskowitz and JuliГЎn Quijano, it pokes fun at any topic under the sun, and does so throughout its one-hour (or so) playtime. Monster Prom is, above all, a funny experience. The game includes dating apps, emoji use and even inappropriate cell-phone pictures you can choose to send to a potential suitor (which may or may not be attractive to some monsters, depending on their taste). Though the characters are all monsters, Spooky High is a decidedly modern school, and the studentвЂ™s lives reflect this. The game takes place over a three week period, during which over 1,000 separate possible situations may arise, adding to the gameвЂ™s replayability. In fact, you can manage to take the merchant to prom if youвЂ™re cunning enough to win her favor.

You can even buy items like a voodoo dollвЂ™s severed head or vials of blood from a merchant in order to increase stats further. These choices can raise or lower your stats, depending on which dialogue options you choose. You can increase these base stats by participating in events, like going to gym class or sitting with certain monsters in the cafeteria. These stats are imperative to the gameвЂ™s progression and pay off, as potential suitors will or wonвЂ™t accept your advances based on certain attributes. YouвЂ™ll also answer a brief (and hilarious) questionnaire that helps determine those base stats. Picking your character isnвЂ™t simply an aesthetic choice, as each comes with their own set of base stats, which include Smarts, Boldness, Creativity, Charm, Fun and Money. The player begins by picking their character, which could be the werewolf jock, or the burnt-out gorgon, or even the hot-headed demon boy.

The player has three weeks to find a date to monster prom вЂ“ an unsurprisingly complex ordeal for anyone who remembers the dizzying intricacies of high school romance. Come April 27, gamers can experience this quirky monster dating simulator rife with humor, surprising depth and endless replayability. Monster Prom began its life on Kickstarter, where it shot past its initial goal and is now set to release on Steam in less than a month.
