Dimension of Monster Girls
Morgan’s life is going nowhere and he hates it. He’s stuck at a low paying job after he dropped out of college. He survives by eating only cheap food in a tiny apartment. When a ship that he’s on to visit his parents sinks, he’s unable to get to the lifeboats in time. Just before he runs out of air, he sees a light and finds himself in a strange world ruled by monster girls. In this world he encounters three of them, one after the other. Each of them want him to be their husband because there are only females of their species, so monster girls only have humans to choose from if they desire children. Due to how their world works, there is a very short time limit on Morgan’s choice. The three girls decide to have one day with him each and one shared day with all of them. Afterwards, he will decide who he likes best.
Characters
Morgan
He is the character you play as. He’s confused about the world he finds himself in and is initially more than a little bit afraid of the monster girls who take an interest in him.
Beatrice (Lamia)
A tall woman with the lower body of a snake. She has a short temper and is very prideful due to her rich upbringing. Her claws are extremely sharp which she uses to hunt wild animals for fun. She thinks of Morgan as being very stupid upon meeting him.
Reina (Kraken)
She’s a monster girl who has tried repeatedly to get a human to like her, but has failed each time because of how creepily possessive she is. Being part squid, she’s an excellent swimmer, but she has trouble moving around on land. She adores Morgan as soon as they meet, but he’s wary of her behaviour.
Iris (Alraune)
Shy and kind, Iris is from a species that often win humans over due to their cuteness. She’s a living plant who feeds on water, sunlight and fruits/vegetables. Looking the most humanoid overall and being smaller than the others make her the easiest for Morgan to talk to at first.
Features

I didn't expect to enjoy this visual novel so much. But I honestly LOVED Reina! So yes, I'm writing this review because of her. Best Kraken girl ever. ❤
Dimension of Monster Girls is a short fantasy/comedy dating simulator. Morgan was traveling to see his parents, but after an accident, his ship sinks and Morgan nearly dies. He sees a weird light and suddenly he finds himself in a strange place where monster girls live together with male humans. He gets bitten by 3 of these monster girls: Reina (a Kraken), Beatrice (a Lamia), and Iris (an Alraune). Now, Morgan only has a few days to decide which girl he wants to spend the rest of his life with otherwise, he'll face hours of unbearable pain and will simply spend the rest of his life single in case he gets to survive (yes, those are the actual rules of that world).
There are 3 happy endings here, one for each girl. About the girls, this was my first impression of them: Reina is very devoted to Morgan and shows some "yandere" signs here and there; Beatrice considers herself royalty and expects the protagonist to treat her as such; Iris is quite shy and looks more like a human girl, just a green one. Like I've said before, my favorite one is Reina. I loved her design and her personality and it's not like I have a sweet spot for yandere characters... ( ͡☉ ͜ʖ ͡☉). Also, Morgan meets another human guy named Xander, and he mentions something about "guys going to monster girls dimension, and girls going to monster boys dimension"... Is it possible that there will be a girl x boy (otome) version of this game someday? Because I kinda would love that. lol
About the bad ending, I liked it too?? It was very sad but worth reading!
The art style was alright/good. I liked the sprites more. The CGs were good too, but the sprites' style was very cute. BGM was simple yet fitting to the story. There's no much variation of songs here since the story itself isn't very long. It took me 2 hours to read the whole novel plus all endings.
7/10. This visual novel isn't very expensive yet features good artwork and a light story. I recommend getting this title if you're in the mood for reading something short. Also, there's no R18 patch even tho there are intimate scenes on each girl's ending.

A nice little visual novel with an interesting story. I've enjoyed monster girl titles ever since getting to try out Monster Girl Quest. There are three characters who are trying to gain your affection and some of the lore and rules to the world works very well. This story will take you a little under two hours to go through and you can go back through again for more. No major complaints here. The story is interesting and worthwhile and there aren't any major grammatical errors.
Pros
+Cute characters
+Funny dialogue
+Interesting story concept
+Dialogue choices
+Four endings
+Monster Girls
Mix
~ (Spoiler)
I felt with the kraken they were playing kick the puppy a bit as far as last of the species and can't mark in the next two years. This may be a good thing because it played on my empathy well enough to choose her first.
Cons
-That patch you're looking for isn't a thing
-The name box on the dialog box can probably look better if decreased in size. Also the blank one is a bit offsetting with the protagonist is thinking to himself.
-Some characters are not drawn when talking to you. They are important characters or interesting characters (monster children, spider wife, and xander); but they are not drawn. It would be nice to see them implemented into the game as well.
All in all this a good visual novel. If you enjoy monster girls and want more like I did than go ahead and pick this up. If you think the price is to high for a game that will take you around 3-4 hours to fully experience; than wait for a sale. Monster girl games is a pretty niche genre and it's nice to see them popping up on steam.

This visual novel is pretty short, but I still enjoyed it becuase I love almost anything with monster girls in it.
============Ratings===========
STORY PREMISE: 5/10
It's okay, but it feels a little too contrived.
WORLD BUILDING: 3/10
Story explains how a lot of things work, but not really why things are the way they are. It constributes to feeling of contriveness I get at certain points in the story).
WRITING STYLE: 5/10
It's okay, but sometimes it really feels like I'm reading something written by some random dude on the internet who made a mod or something.
CONTENT LENGTH: 5/10
You'd think I'd hate the writting based on my scores above, but I still found it charming. Which makes me sad that it wasn't much longer. You can 100% the game in about 4 to 6 hours. I've played similar games with more story for like $2 to $3 dollars. That being said, what IS there is still enjoyable, so I can sort of forgive it for being so short.
CHARACTERS: 9/10
Whatever my feelings about the story as a whole, I found I loved the characters in it the story a whole lot. Good job!
OVERALL STORY: 8/10
I have my gripes with some of the way the story is constructed and told, but I still really enjoyed it. This is the kind of story where the like-ability of the characters is more important than the story being told. You're not here for the story, you are here for the characters themselves.
CHARACTER DESIGNS: 7/10
The designs for the monster girls are really nice. The art style for the girls in the CGs seem a little different though, I can't quite put my finger on it, they still look just as nice though, just different somehow.
BACKGROUND ART: 7/10
The backgrounds all look good and help sell the world. The best kind of background art in visual novels is the kind you don't notice.
USER INTERFACE DESIGN: 9/10
Looks uniquely stylized, coherent and everything is where you expect it to be. The best kind of interface is the kind you don't have to think about.
SOUND EFFECTS: 5/10
Game uses some sound effects sparingly, they sound pretty stock. It's okay, I guess.
MUSIC: 7/10
Game has a few tracks, but they are good tracks.
VOICE ACTING: 0/10
This game has none, but most visual novels don't, so who really cares. However, it's nice when it's there.
MONSTER GIRL GOODNESS: 9/10
If you like monster girls, this game won't dissapoint you. It may only have three girls, but they are all great and are differentiated enough from each other to build variety.
OVERALL GAME: 7/10
I enjoyed it, wish it was longer. If you like the monster girl genre you won't regret buying it, for sure.
==============================================
P.S. Kraken is best girl, FIGHT ME!!!!

Dimension of Monster Girls is a Visual Novel where you get transported to a parallel World, in which Monster Girls exist. On your Arrival you get "marked" by 3 of them and as a Result you have to choose between them on who you want to marry. The Story itself really isnt special, but it also isnt what makes this VN so good. The Thing that really made me like this Game are the 3 Girls. All of them are really cute, interesting and also very different to each other. Also they are not the typical Monster Girls, which was a pleasant Surprise for me. I really cant say much else about this game other then that the Girls are just really loveable and I would really love a second Game where they actually build a nice Story around them.
The CGs arent that great imo, however the Girls in the normal Parts of the Game look amazing and the Backgrounds are nice aswell. The same can be said about the Translation as I couldnt spot any real mistakes.
For the Price Tag that it has you get a really enjoyable little "Dating Sim" without choices, which really isnt a negativ point for me. Also the Game will be around 2 hours long maybe a little longer if you really play all different Endings. Clear Recommendation from me if you like Monster Girls :)
Overall Score: 8.5/10

I've ♥♥♥♥♥footed around giving this a review since I got all the endings, but I think I owe it one.
This is, after all, the VN that got me to think twice about my anger at dating VN's.
___
Very simply, this is a homebrew project by one guy and a few folks he could find, who I've had the privilege of talking with via E-mail and finding to be an approachable and mild-hearted fellow. The homebrew aspect definitely reflects in a lot of this VN - which helps put it into perspective.
___
Dimension of Monster Girls's writing is cheesy, missing a whole lot of logos that causes much of its pathos to underwhelm; its male protagonist is an ungrateful little schmock who I'd like to yell at and maybe even slap once if I could meet him; and its production value, what with generic backgrounds, very few character sprites, a shortage of dedicated non-playsprite pictures, and all the sprites' different variations being *the exact same body position* with a different facial expression, clearly reflects the aforementioned homebrew origin.
And yet, in a way, these flaws help the sincere experience the game's going for shine. The weird dynamic of a dating experience suddenly being thrust upon a lonely male character with pressure to choose someone in three days, the odd worldbuilding which manages to be somehow both wholesome and morbid- to the point it's even believable, in a fantasy-esque way, contrasting with either something more idyllic or apocalyptic, either extreme tending to fail to reel one in- and the odd mechanics of "monster girl" biology- I can hardly believe I'm saying that - actually make it feel wondrous and engaging that a society with laws and traditions has emerged in this crazy world that Brandon- excuse me, RhinoGearz- has conjured to justify us timid boys' yearning for alien/animal/wort/etc. girl love. This guy could make an expansive universe based on what he's shared through exposition in this VN alone, the kind of thing that draws you in for hours exploring the world in it and which you can write fanfiction for and not cringe at yourself for writing if you wanted.
Even as I've said the romance plots could use a lot more logos, the pathos that's there still has some effect, mostly for the girls themselves. I will upfront say I am definitely in Camp Reina, both because of her predicament and because I absolutely love forward, love-craven, sexually aggressive women. But even the bossy Beatrice and the shy Iris have loveable aspects, and I don't just mean their, uh... *assets*. If Brandon ever chose to rewrite this from the ground up, he's got a rather good framework to base his improvements on.
And heck, even though I have cross words for the ingrate of a male protagonist, he actually has some agreeable moments in the Act 1 linear draw-along, and he even becomes ... dare I say it? ... Actually likable as he goes on dating, and after he's chosen a woman to share his life with if he even does. The ending you get if he doesn't is actually great in my opinion; it edges out the pointless-edgelord angle anime loves in favor of a sign he has genuine mental health issues.
___
Dimension of Monster Girls has more choices than any VN I'd tried before this, which is one of the reasons it won me over, but it definitely doesn't come close to proper 'choose your own adventure game' territory. It's short. So, unless you've gotten a job that pays very high, I do recommend waiting for a slight sale.
