Jumped in a hole and didn't have an electric type move to open the door at the bottom. Cant get back out of the hole and i dont have items to teleport. Now im soft locked and my save is bricked as far as i can tell. Pretty bad level design.1 found this helpful
This game has surprised me consistently with its depth, intelligence, and yes, its heart. A perfect blend of Pokemon, Metroidvania, and Party-based RPG, "Monster Sanctuary" has been a delight from the first boot, despite grindy elements and a few RNG-dependent mechanics. This game awards exploration, experimentation, and even failure, as every encounter is a potential teaching moment which invites the player to reflect on his/her choices and ponder how to improve their performances. Platforming sections can be frustrating, as can some of the puzzles (especially the time-driven ones,) but nothing so far has been too difficult to completely discourage attempts. I have a seven-year-old, and he and I have thoroughly enjoyed our time with this title, and I have really appreciated how this game has bolstered his critical thinking skills, his memory recall, and his reading abilities. Overall, I think this game is a must-have for anyone who fondly remembers the joy of exploration in the original Metroid titles or anyone who wanted their Pokemon battles to rely on more than just a single monster's at-bat abilities. "Monster Sanctuary" is a joy to play, and I'm looking forward to delving eve…
Never in my life have a played a game as balanced as this, maybe Slay the Spire. Genuinely every single monster in this game is viable with the right combination and setup. It's a refreshing deviation from Pokemon, where you understand some mons are straight up better than others and some are almost unusable, let alone pre evolutions which don't even become a real mon until halfway through the game. This game takes everything great about Pokemon and strips its worst aspects away, leaving a smooth battle system and playthrough (xp is also doled out so ingeniously and fairly I couldn't believe it either, having played countless Pokemon games that mess it up every time). Amazing game.
great game but it dose have a little problem when you are trying not to lvl grind. If you dont lvl grind then you are most of the time under lvl, but everything is not that bad.
Great game. if you like RPG, Pixel Art and pokemons
Метроидвания это не мой жанр, но эта игра зашла очень хорошо за счет пошаговых боев, обилия монстров и вариантов их сборки. Для инди, очень хорошая вариативность. оптимизация, графика, музыка, все на должном уровне. Советую всем любителям пошаговых тактик. Есть только один минус: затягивает в стиле "ну еще один бой", время летит незаметно и можно забыть пойти спать.:)
