Our take on YOU ARE THE MONSTER
The focus on destructive rampages narrows the experience to immediate chaos and progression between playthroughs. That emphasis leaves less room for slower exploration, narrative development, or objectives built around preserving the environment.
What is YOU ARE THE MONSTER?
Play as a giant monster in a city-focused destruction game.
Move through urban environments, destroy people and objects, and grow in size and power. Each playthrough includes ability progression for confronting police units, SWAT teams, tanks, jets, and other threats. Progress also provides access to additional monsters, game modes, and cosmetic items. The structure centers on repeated rampages, with new abilities gained as a run develops and further destructive options becoming available over time.
