The Last Monster Master

The Last Monster Master is a 250,000-word, text-based interactive fantasy novel in which your choices shape the story. As a Monster Master, you train wild monsters using telepathy, raising them to serve as treasure guardians, royal pets, giant stone masons, vicious soldiers or mindless power generators. With war breaking out against the kingdom to the north, how you care for your monsters affects their fate and yours.

Train your monsters

You can guide your monsters with gentle compassion or use cruel punishments to discipline them. You can also develop Telepathy or Body Language detection skills to read their minds. Your choices determine whether your clan is ready to protect the realm and whether you lead your monsters to victory and prosperity or become the last Monster Master.

The story explores kinship, sacrifice and difficult decisions. It is entirely text-based, with no graphics or sound effects.
