About

MONPIC is a 2D adventure game that portrays the bond between a dragon hatchling named Pico and a girl transforming into a dragon named Yuzuki. Experience a charming story of monsters and humans while enjoying point-and-click exploration.

Story

Humans and monsters inhabit this world. These two groups live in tandem with one another. At times they quarrel, and at times they work together, long is their shared history.

One day, a girl named Yuzuki gets lost in the forest and finds a delicious-looking apple. Thinking “Lucky!,” she eats it. Just then, a hatchling dragon named Pico appears and… Suddenly bursts into tears!

It turns out that this was a special apple, a “Dragon Apple” essential for a dragon’s growth. After eating the Dragon Apple, Yuzuki starts to grow horns and begins to transform into a dragon.

Can Yuzuki return to her original ‘Human’ form? And can Pico, who has lost his Dragon Apple, grow into a magnificent dragon? Guide them on their journey.

“I hope we can meet again someday.”
