Tri City Monsters

A fun game with a distinct vibe. (More nuanced review below) CHARACTERS - a solid range of character personalities, despite there being only three romance options - Amir’s character and writing feels tragically like a bit of an afterthought (Though I’m really fond of his personality.) STORY - It neatly establishes how this fantasy world works, while still leaving logical mysteries to solve - A relatively simple story, but one that successfully endears and explores the characters. CHOICES - The choices you make in the game don’t really affect the story beyond influencing the ROs to lean into either their human or demon sides in the epilogue, but that didn’t really bother me. I was just along for the ride CONSENT - Decently explicit consent. The Characters ask for permission before all of the sex scenes, but not always specifically for sex. often a request for intimacy leads into sex. But if you consent to intimacy that then goes farther than you want it to, it is VERY easy to back out by using your scroll wheel to move back time. - Though the characters often initiate some pretty heated kissing without the opportunity to opt out. And in Mori’s human epilogue, Mori makes Mc undr…

The writing is amazing and the three love interests are all different in every possible way. It truly feel like a monster f*cker game where the characters's monster transformation isn't a twink with furry ears or just a human with horns and tail in a attempt to imitate a "demon" with no other creative features. Akello and mori have my whole heart, especially Akello. He is absolute peak. The art style absolutely ROCKS, definitely the best part of this visual novel.

One of the best Visual Novels I've ever played. I spent over 20+ hours of this game and I regret none of it. The writing is immaculate, the artwork is stunning. The only critique i have is that the endings seem to be a tiny bit rushed. BUT, the amount of story in the previous chapters makes up for it. All the characters have a certain charm to them that makes it hard to choose a favorite. If i had to choose one though it would defiantly be Amir. I hope to see more characters like him in future games the creator makes. Also, don't get me started about the music. I probably listened to the sound track multiple times already and i cant get enough. Overall I would HIGHLY recommend this game <3

I usually don't play games in this genre but the art really pulled me in, and so far it has become a quick favorite of mine! The characters are really unique in both design and story. Especially Akello! He is easily the star of the show and his story sucked me in by the end of chapter one. His art, his music, the story, the hunk of a man! I am so excited to see where it goes!!

Love this game, the art is beautiful and the 3 love interests are so interesting and I love all of em. I have yet to fully complete a route because I'm so interested in each path, collecting cgs, and (of course) banging monsters. The designs for the monsters are so creative (I especially love Amir's) and I highly recommend anyone thinking of buying this to go for it. The developer put a lot of love into this game and you can tell when you play it. I am also immensely grateful that they allowed people who already owned the game prior to the release date to not have to pay for it, while I wouldn't have minded to support their work, I am also pretty tight money-wise so this was really nice. Also I am so excited for the Raath route to come out in the future :))))

Tri City Monsters is an adult supernatural romance visual novel that blends character-driven storytelling, demonic mythology, horror, dark comedy, and intimate relationships into an experience aimed at a very particular audience. Developed and published by Studio Peaches, it places considerably more importance on conversations, choices, relationships, and discovering the personalities of its unusual cast than on conventional action-oriented gameplay. Its central concept revolves around encounters with three demonic romantic interests, using their supernatural identities not merely for appearance but as an important component of the relationships, conflicts, and atmosphere surrounding the protagonist. The narrative is where most of the experience lives. Rather than presenting romance as an isolated side activity, the game builds much of its story around becoming increasingly involved with characters whose supernatural nature makes attraction potentially dangerous. This gives conversations a different quality from those found in an ordinary dating simulator. Learning more about a potential partner can reveal appealing personality traits and vulnerabilities, but it can also expose un…
