Sweetest Monster is a release by ebi-hime, which means interesting characters and memorable situations. It is definitely a much darker title than what you might think, but one that kept us hooked right to the very end. At only about 40,000 words, it is slightly shorter than the average visual novel, but the story is good, and the price is very reasonable. Anyone looking for something with a bit more substance than the typical lighthearted catgirl visual novels should definitely give this kinetic novel a try.

Gameplay: The story is beautifully written and definitely very memorable despite the lack of choices or branches.

Graphics: The game features only a limited number of character sprites and backgrounds, but they are all great.

Sound: There is no voice acting, but the background music and sound effects are of a very high standard
