Description
Experience the life of a Monster, from its infancy to old age and beyond, where every decision you make shapes the world of both Monsters and Humans. You begin your journey in the village of Omen, a place where the food of choice might just be the fingers of small children. As a Monster, you'll find yourself in a variety of intriguing situations — what will you do when three enraged bears discover a child in their cabin? Or when you catch sight of a wolf hunting a woman in a red cloak? As a Monsterling, your early decisions are simple yet impactful. Will you chase after those helpless mice (+1 Ferocity), or will you defend them from the dogs (+1 Kindness)? Do you admit to your friends eating poisonous fungus (+1 Honesty), or do you cover up for them (+1 Bravery)? Each of these choices helps determine your character's growth and personality.
However, all young Monsters must eventually mature, and this process involves navigating the growing tensions between the Monster world and Human civilization. For centuries, Monsters and Humans have been in conflict, and the enchanted woods serve as a barrier between the two worlds. When a Human child gets lost in the dark, twisting forest, will you choose to terrorize them for amusement (+1 Ferocity)? Or will you help guide them back to their people, showing that not all Monsters are to be feared and despised (+1 Kindness)? Alternatively, you could fatten them up for a unique Monster delicacy — Human foie gras.
As your journey unfolds, the escalating tension between Monsters and Humans will challenge your beliefs and decisions. Balancing six key traits — Bravery, Cleverness, Ferocity, Honesty, Kindness, and Respect — will be essential for gaining political influence. With over 900 different choices to make, your decisions will guide your Monster’s path through an ever-evolving world.
As you grow, you'll encounter numerous characters and events from classic fairy tales, such as Little Red Riding Hood, Hansel and Gretel, and the Three Little Pigs, each with their own potential outcomes. Every playthrough offers a new set of challenges and adventures, with a wide range of possible endings, depending on the choices you make along the way.
One of the unique aspects of the game is the chance to engage in a variety of activities that would typically be off-limits to ordinary Monsters, including exploring careers like neurosurgery, all without needing to attend medical school — a fun and unexpected twist in the life of a Monster!
Key Features:
- Balance your Bravery, Cleverness, Ferocity, Honesty, Kindness, and Respect to influence your power and decisions.
- Over 900 choices to make, ensuring every playthrough is unique.
- Encounter classic fairy tale scenarios like Little Red Riding Hood, Hansel and Gretel, and more.
