Monster Match: dating with biases exposed

If you’re tired of traditional dating apps, we invite you to try Monster Match, a dating WebApp that is not exactly conventional. Where its biggest difference from the rest of the dating apps lies is that Monster Match exposes all the inherent biases that feed the algorithms of dating apps. When you make your profile you must decide whether you want to be a Tarantula, a vampire, a werewolf, a goblin, a zombie, or one of the other thousands of monster options the app offers. Then you add something unpleasant about yourself and you are ready for your matches.

Once your profile has been created, the app will throw other monsters at you, where by swiping left or right you can choose whether you prefer a piranha or a demon; then, if you match, you are allowed to chat with your monster companion, be it a monster or a monstress, as they put it in the app, “monster or monstress”.

Traditional dating apps match so fast that sometimes you don’t realize who you are really giving a like or a dislike to. Unlike Monster Match, where the app’s algorithm carefully watches your decisions, both in the characteristics you describe and in the monster’s physical look. Based on that, it makes predictions for future matches.

More than a dating app, it is a fun game that can help you prevent being harassed by a giant Venetian octopus that is not going to let you escape, or being the sex slave of a troglodyte elf. We invite you to try it and have a little fun at this link: https://monstermatch.hiddenswitch.com/
