Monster Prom 3: Monster Roadtrip
In this latest installment of the Monster Prom franchise, work together with your friends to not get stranded in the desert as you bumble through wacky hijinks and meet quirky creatures. Where earlier games had a competitive focus to romancing your favorite characters, this recent installment turns up the teamwork: Players must work together to survive crazy shenanigans and get through this trip in one piece! And if you wish the game would have a little more to it behind the jokes and gimmicks, just chat up a character at a rest stop where the dialogues feel like deep, soulful conversations past midnight with a close friend. If you want to spice things up, take turns reading dialogue in accents and funny voices! With in-person or online multiplayer anywhere from one to four players, this game has it all: adventure, friends old and new—wait, bears?—and maybe your one true (fictional) love! Available on Steam.
