About Magical Monsters
The old world is shattered by a devastating energy surge.
But from the ashes new isles arise transformed by the magical energy.
In this action roguelite you play a stranded creature that explores various of these isles in search of a way to escape to a more ideal world.
During these explorations you will need to level and make a build so you are prepared for the challenges you will face.
You always start from your lair.
As you find materials during your exploration you can upgrade parts of your lair unlocking features and new isles you can explore.The state of your lair is persistent and not lost if you die in a run.
From your lair you start an exploration on one of the isles you have unlocked.
During an exploration you start from scratch and you have to make a build from what you find.
Each isle has a champion you will face after a fixed period of time. As you progress further in the game the champions will get tougher and you will get more time to prepare. Also the isle will get bigger with more challenges and opportunities.

Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
The game in itself is quite nice. Retro feel to the graphics, but I like that, so a plus in my book. No progression kept on death, except for main base and resources gathered, is great. Game could use some refinement though. - While the UI is functional, it is not great imho. Health bar would be better placed on top, instead of a bottom corner of the screen. - There is no tutorial level(island), which in itself is OK, but makes you have to experiment to find how the game-mechanics work. If that is the intention, great. Job well done. But I would've liked some more information(on-hover or a first-occurence type of deal would be nice) Conclusion: I like it, but it can do with some polising3 found this helpful
Back to basics. Simple but nice graphics, simple game control with not too many buttons/keys to memorize. And yet tons of monsters and lot of islands to explore. Love it.
Magic Monsters is a gem that will enchant every fan of fantasy.
