Monster Girl's Labyrinth is a small and short game where, after being thrown into a dangerous dungeon as punishment for your absolutely shameful collection of doujins, you'll have to beat (and screw) your way through a labyrinth full of very horny monster girls (shocker, I know).

It's a pretty vanilla game, honestly. Aside from the pretty obvious monster girl theme, the sex scenes are rather tame typical porn stuff. All PiV, some boob stuff, and that's about it.
Review by category
-Art: It's... Meh? You could classify the art of this game as "pixel art", and honestly, it works. It's not ugly, neither impressive or specially pretty, however the style does have some charm to it. Sadly the game, being as short and simple as it is, doesn't have the space for a lot of art or sprites. The designs were pretty basic, though, all girls were either naked or in their underwear, and none of them was specially memorable.
-Gameplay: The world needs more hentai games with actual gameplay. Nowadays the great majority of H games I find are either visual novels with no actual plot or HuniePop clones trying to replicate the match-three gameplay formula. So I am biased when I say the gameplay of Monster Girl's Labyrinth is awesome. And myself being a first person dungeon crawler big fan doesn't help. But I digress. This is a classic dungeon crawling RPG, where you move through several (but small) grid-based scenarios, find loot and defeat enemies when they appear with a simple minigame. All enemies (except for one and one miniboss) are monster girls, all of which have their own H scene that you'll get to see every time you defeat them. Sadly, there isn't a wide variety of enemies, but there are enough encounters to make these victory scenes feel quite repetitive after a while. There is, of course, a final boss at the end, and there are multiple shops throughout the dungeon. There is even one secondary quest, kind of. And a gallery for you to check those victory scenes again if you wish. In general, it was pretty entertaining.
-Story: There isn't much of a story, though the game is arguably too short for one and well, it is a game about screwing monster girls in a dungeon, who needs a story to go with that? But there is one, aside from the intro where you are exiled into the dungeon for being a pervert. You can ignore the story completely, though, it doesn't really contribute much to the enjoyment or understanding of the game, and it's told by tombstones (for some reason) with messages engraved on them, found as you advance through the scenarios in an apparently random order. So you can choose not to read them and it won't really affect your experience all that much.
-OST/Sound design: The music was fine, not specially memorable, but it was fitting and never once did I find it annoying. The sound effects, on the other hand... I had no problem with them during the dungeon exploration or battles, but during the H scenes they were pretty annoying. Each scene has one (1) moan with a very short loop, and same goes for the screwing sound effect, so I even ended up muting the game if I wanted to see the scenes or just skipping them after the battles.
-Bugs: Nothing worth noting, more than bugs I just found some need for polishing and optimizing. But aside from that it worked perfectly well.
-Fap worth: Ehh. It's... There. On one hand, the scenes are animated and (albeit annoyingly) voiced. But on the other, there aren't many of them, the art style doesn't allow for much detail, and it's pretty basic stuff. They aren't bad per se, and they might even be good enough for some alone time, but don't expect anything too impressive in the H department.
Recommended?
I mean, sure... On sale. I did like it. I think it's good. It's funny, entertaining, cute and refreshing even, when it comes to hentai games. Buuut it's also very short, doesn't have a lot of art or story/dialogue, and has no replayability whatsoever, so I'm not sure it's worth 3$.
Final rating is 6'5/10.
