Monster Prom

It’s a dating sim, but with cute teenage monsters. You have a werewolf athlete, a hipster vampire, slutty ghost, prim mermaid, and bunch of other characters.

Probably my favorite is the Elder Godess Zoe:

The narrative is suggestive, but not explicit. And nonsensical, as any dating sim goes. Nobody asks why a four hundred year old vampire attends college, or how a ghost girl gets drunk every night (ok, she actually posesses people and makes them drink).
What makes it slightly more interesting than a visual novel is that your character has stats, and they are visual. So you can see how much “Charm” your character has, and by picking certain activities, you can boost stats accordingly. Which makes it into a bit of a management sim, I guess.

As far as the gameplay goes, though, I found it quite tiresome. In visual novels, even if you don’t strike the right answers, you get some ending. Here, even though I knew already what I was doing, I would still get “fail” all the time. So, it stopped being fun for me pretty quickly.
