Monster Loves You!

very cute story

sweet game, easy to replay

Fun little game, a bit light but overall enjoyable. Cute story with interesting choices. A single play through takes about an hour. I wish it was a bit more gamey and a bit less read along but it was still fun to play.

A cute, fun and original little game! I get the negative comments about the length of replayability, I finished it once in a little under 3 hours and it doesn't seem to me that it would offer much more if I were to play it again. But I've played many short games that were totally worth their money, so the length for me isn't the only deciding factor about the worth of a game. Maybe it makes sense though to wait for a sale and get it at a lower price. That being said, I would have loved this format but in a game 3 or 4 times this size.

Fun choose your own adventure concept with several different endings, a cute art style, and a bit of humour. However quite tedious for a replay after maybe the first two runs. Once you know how most decisions work repeated playthroughs are samey (and required if you want to get all achievements). Going for 100% became a chore. If there were the option it would be a "Meh" review overall, but it's still fun enough to recommend with the caveat that it's only if you're in for one or two playthroughs. If you're an achievement hunter it's a slog.

I like the music, the game has great atmosphere. It's not a visual novel nor a point and click adventure, it's a simulation. You're basically raising a monster and learning about its world by making the choices in its life that will determine what kind of monster it is and therefore its fate. It is pretty repetitive going through much the same basic structure of the game again and again, just making different choices, but if you get it on sale I think the game is not a bad value.
