Take control of the Underworld’s grumpiest ghoul to help a lost little girl find her way home in this creepy-cute indie adventure. Just be warned: if she cries, the whole world dies.

About the story

Welcome to the Underworld — a land of monsters and mutants who eat humans for breakfast. One such monster — a hulking ogre by the name of Roy — has no interest in eating humans. But one day, he and his best friend Golan stumble upon a lost little girl named Meg, and discover something truly terrifying: the moment she starts wailing in fear, a blood-red hue washes over the sky, and the earth itself begins to tremble and quake. That’s right: this small girl’s tears hold the power to bring forth the apocalypse — and the only way to stop it is for them to help find her mother so she can make it safely back home.

While the emphasis on safeguarding a young girl sets Meg's Monster apart from other games, the adventure fails to deliver a captivating experience that will keep players invested.

...Meg’s Monster offers a heartwarming tale for those that love watching gruff big guys become sweethearts over an unsuspecting intrusion in their lives. And with strong art direction, pleasant music, and a well-paced story, this game is a no-brainer for story lovers.

Meg's Monster is a great 2D pixel-style action-adventure game that has you exploring the underworld to help this lost human child get back to her mother. With a great story and battle mechanics it is sure to make you smile.

Meg’s Monster is a humble game that takes the appearance of an RPG as a mechanism to tell its story. Though it ends up underdeveloped in some aspects, it's an easy recommendation for players who get emotional over child tales with good moral lessons.

Meg’s Monster is a charming, adorable, and heartfelt adventure that provides an excellent indie RPG experience. The relationship between the main duo is the driving force, with the art and music complementing the tone. However, it lacks evolution by revealing its entire hand in the first few hours, delivering a weak second half.
