Monster Adventures (Foursaken Media) - monster mixing/roguelike adventure/RPG

No they're in the empire business....

 

No, they're in the business of empires.

 

I have to say that I haven't been this excited to win something in a very long time, Thank You! I sent a PM.

 

Oh well. looking forward to playing the game late tomorrow night!

 

Congrats to the winners! Guess I have another 29+ hours to go before I can play. I'm sure it'll be worth the wait.

 

Thursday can't come soon enough!

 

Can't wait to wake up to those NZ impressions

 

I didn't win. Womp womp.

 

Breaking Bad quote, you're awesome.

 

Yeah I miss it already...

 

The 3 people who won.

Imps?

Don't leave us all hanging.

 

I think they have to wait till the game's released, right? I don't think they get to play early

 

Nope. Usually they can get it ahead of time.

 

Well, I guess it's a good sign that they haven't been able to tear themselves away haha (; Either that or Foursaken hasn't handed all the codes out yet

 

The game is simply amazing, let's start there. I really like all the different game play elements going on here with the monster collecting, the leveling up and customizing of your monsters skills and stats. Not to mention the heavy penalty if you die while hunting monsters in the field really keeps you on your toes.

I haven't started the coliseum yet, so I can't comment there yet but I have been having a lot of fun hunting down monsters to learn new skills and killing them for money to buy new fruit and essences.

I actually want to get back to playing but if anyone has a question ask away and I will do my best to answer it. I will be up for a few more hours playing and will stop back in to see if anyone asks.

 

Oh so guess I was wrong. You lucky...

How open are the worlds? I was never clear on that.
How are the roguelike elements?
And does the combat feel as fun/deep as expected?

 

The world is made up of three different areas(meadowlands, cliffs, and snowy lands) to hunt monsters. Inside each area is a randomly generated level that changes room layout each time you enter, the level is broken into rooms that most times are filled with monsters, sometimes a room is empty or only has a treasure chest. There are also rooms with portals that take you deeper into the area into another level with harder/more monsters. There is also the coliseum but I have not been there yet.

Edit: Monsters randomly regenerate in rooms that are cleared but the rooms don't lock back up if you want to roam a level after you've cleared it and catch some monsters a little less franticly. /Edit

The first room you start in will have the portal back to town after you kill all the monsters in the room. Any of the rooms that have monsters will lock shut when you enter and won't open until you kill all the monsters, the same goes for rooms with portals deeper into the area. Granted I have only played in the meadowlands so far.

The rogue like elements are that if you die hunting monsters that you lose all the items you found, half the experience earned, and a portion of your gold(I can't recall off hand).

The combat is fun as it changes with different skills you unlock by catching a set number of a certain type of monster. You change your stats and stat growth by equipping essences to one of four different parts of your creature.

Hope this helps, let me know if I wasn't clear enough on anything.

 

I work graveyards so I was sleeping all day. Now I have to wait for my code until the devs wake up.

Eagerly waiting of course.

 

Game of the week is coming! Oh yea!
