Dear Monster

Editorial Worth it

Dear Monster is a yaoi visual novel that delivers on what its audience wants: beautiful art, animated sprites, and abundant adult content woven into character-driven routes. Player consensus is strongly positive about the creative work—most praise the character writing, sprite animation (rare in the genre), and the variety of endings, with standout routes like Imbriss and Slagathor earning particular affection. The game prioritizes sex scenes early and often, which some players find immersive and others feel overwhelms the narrative pacing; this is largely a matter of taste rather than execution. The main creative criticism is pacing: several reviewers note that character development and world-building are rushed, and backstory weight (trauma, family history) drops away quickly for sexual content. A few also mention inconsistent CG quality and reused assets in non-explicit scenes. On price, opinion divides sharply—some feel the art, animation, and content justify €20–35, while others find it overpriced for 2–3 hours per route. The game is stable and complete, with no widespread technical complaints.
