A unique blend of role-playing and adventure elements awaits in Always Sometimes Monsters , a 2D top-down game that drops you into the shoes of a struggling writer facing a daunting deadline. With no money to your name and a failed publishing contract, you're forced to navigate the ups and downs of life with a twist - a wedding invitation from an ex-lover arrives just as things are getting tough.
Set in the vibrant city of Dubtown, where shops, nightlife, and working locations await, the game offers an open-world environment for exploration. Make choices that influence the story, risk or earn money through various means, and explore the consequences of your actions. From sleeping on a friend's couch to investing in a snack stand, every decision counts.
With multiple endings to uncover and numerous save points to fall back on, Always Sometimes Monsters offers a dynamic gaming experience. The game's choice-driven dialogue system provides depth, with portraits of characters bringing the story to life without voice acting. Note that mature themes are present, including issues of racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, and more.
Always Sometimes Monsters is now available on the Nintendo Switch, inviting players to embark on a journey of self-discovery and exploration in this critically acclaimed title.
