Overview
Monster Prom is a comedy-horror fantasy slice-of-life visual novel developed by Beautiful Glitch and digitally published by Those Awesome Guys for the PC, Mac, and Linux on April 27, 2018.
Players control a student at "Spooky High", a high-school inhabited by monsters of various tropes (including vampires, werewolves, ghosts, and demons), and have three weeks of getting involved in various (and often absurd) situations to win the heart of one of six other monsters.
Unlike traditional visual novels, each play-through of the game is played in a brisk hour-long pace that encourages replayability (with many alternate endings and special scenarios). Similar to the Tokimeki Memorial series of dating simulators, players must organize their time and build up their attributes to give them a better chance of succeeding. In addition, the game features multiplayer for up to four players (offline or online), with players able to compete to win the heart of the same student.
The game later received an expansion pack DLC on February 14, 2019, titled Monster Prom: Second Term, introducing two new love interests and additional events, NPCs, and secret endings. It also received additional updates since its release (adding seasonal content, modding support, and other quality-of-life updates). A complete version of the game (its expansion and seasonal content) was later released for the Nintendo Switch on May 21, 2020 as Monster Prom: XXL. This version was later released for the Xbox One and PlayStation 4 on October 14, 2020.
It later received a full-fledged sequel on October 20, 2020, titled Monster Prom 2: Monster Camp, switching the locale to a summer camp.
