Combining elements of adventure games and dating sims, Monster Prom focuses on the experience of collaborative storytelling. Along with Moon Hunters, it follows the legacy of The Yahwg, which drew the blueprint for the intimate style of story told here. Unlike the other two, Monster Prom isn’t concerned with the coming disaster of a fantasy world, but a high school prom. This sets up Monster Prom up as a comedy game, with an irreverent tone that pokes fun at high school archetypes, movie monster mythology, and prep school institutions. It’s a fun synthesis, and when it hits it had me laughing in disbelief, but it also becomes a source of wild tonal shifts that break its stride.
