Monica has married her childhood sweetheart and is now settling in the city with her new family. But it’s going to take one million gold to buy her citizenship! Work odd jobs and fight monsters to make enough gold before time runs out!
RPG Gamers summaryIn the latest gaming news, we’ve seen the release of “Monica’s Newlywed Life,” a role-playing game that explores the unique dynamic of a post-adventure life. Developed by the same team that brought us “Welcome to Paradise Island,” “Himegashima Island,” and “Angel Tear: Goddess Betrayed,” this fresh take on RPG games exposes players to the complexities of settling down after the thrills of epic adventures.
The game primarily revolves around Monica, who, along with her childhood friends Kyle and Sophia, embarked on a journey to defeat the Demon Lord. However, they weren’t strong enough to complete their ultimate goal, and hence opted to battle the Lord’s minions instead. Following the announcement that a grand hero has already defeated the Demon King, Kyle seizes the opportunity to propose to Monica, prompting the group to settle down in the city of Clematis.
However, settling in Clematis is not without its challenges, as it requires a significant fee of one million gold. Monica’s party is then given 60 days to come up with the funds – forcing the player into a race against time. Adventuring isn’t as profitable now that the Demon Lord’s reign is over, so Monica and her companions have to find alternative ways of earning gold — from working in various jobs around the city to completing guild quests.
Monica’s Newlywed Life also introduces a wardrobe feature where collecting or buying new outfits can increase job options for Monica. Other questing mechanics involve hiring other adventurers, simple RPG combat, and bosses battles.
The game’s clear emphasis is on both physical and fiscal stamina management and strategic job selection. The player would need to maintain Monica’s stamina balance, ensuring it does not run out while also making sure enough money is raised before the given deadline.
Moreover, the game allows an alternate route to acquiring citizenship in Clematis – by scaling the ranks to become a B rank adventurer in the guild. This offers a diverse gaming experience for players who prefer questing and combat sessions instead of or in combination with the job simulation experience.
In summary, Monica’s Newlywed Life offers a novel blend of life simulation and RPG elements not typically explored in mainstream games. Its fresh perspective brings a compelling dimension to the RPG scene, offering more than just monster battles and epic quests. By juxtaposing these elements with the mundanity and hard work of earning a living, the game sheds a unique light on the after-adventure life of RPG characters, making it a potentially intriguing option for fans of the genre.
