About
Collect awesome monsters to use during turn-based battles in this open-world RPG. Combine any two monster forms using Cassette Beasts’ Fusion System to create unique and powerful new ones!
Welcome to New Wirral, a remote island inhabited by strange creatures you’ve only dreamed of, nightmares you hopefully haven’t, and a cast of brave folks who use cassette tapes to transform for battle. To find a way home you’ll need to explore every inch of the island, and record monsters to your trusty cassette tapes to gain their abilities!
Faced with the constant threat of monster attacks, the residents of Harbourtown, New Wirral choose to fight fire with fire. Record a monster to tape, then play it back to take on its form for battle!
Getting close to your companion has benefits–while transformed you can combine your strengths to gain the upper hand in battle! Any two monster forms can be fused to produce unique, fully-animated new fusion forms.
Certain monster abilities can be used in human form. You’ll need these to help you get around, solve puzzles, and locate dungeons. Glide, fly, swim, climb, dash, or turn magnetic! Take on the Gauntlet – a never-ending battle mode where you’ll face fearsome enemies for precious material and glory!
Never fight alone! Form bonds, spend time together, and help your selected partner complete personal goals to become a better team. The strength of your relationship determines how well you’re able to fuse!
Take advantage of elemental chemistry to apply extra buffs or debuffs alongside your attack, or even alter your opponent’s elemental type!
Team up with a friend in local multiplayer to explore, transform, and fight together!
Party up with Online Multiplayer to trade monster tapes, challenge your friends to 1v1 battles, and team up to take on powerful Rogue Fusion beasts for great rewards!

(ignore the played time, I got this game on Switch first then picked it up on PC aswell in part to leave a review) I kind of accidentally stumbled upon this game by accident last week, and I am completely *hooked*. This whole game is so beautifully crafted, from the artstyle, to the monster design, to the music and the characters you meet. If you are a fan of creature collecting games, you owe it to yourself to give Cassette Beasts a try. And if you look at this and think "sheesh, another Pokemon rip off" -- you're wrong. Yes, you collect creatures. Sure. But this game does enough unique things both in and out of battle that I really do not think making that comparison is fair to it. Cassette Beasts entered a genre already populated by big names, yes, but it carved a solid niche for itself within that space. These devs won me over and I can't wait for the sequel.
Musiche favolose, art design piacevole, storia interessante e gameplay divertente. Gioco semplice (forse appena troppo, considerando che ci sono taaaanti modi per scoppiarlo ed era il mio primo monster collector) ma overall una bella esperienza che consiglio a tutti gli amanti del genere... e non solo. Come detto non sono un veterano del genere (ma di Jrpg e combattimenti a turni ne ho macinati parecchio, soprattutto FF) e mi è piaciuto molto

For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 23 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 14 places towards #1, and the 2,515 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Es un juego increíble con una estética preciosa y una historia preciosa. Lo compré de salida en su momento y tengo hasta la edición física de su vinilo. Es un juegazo!
harika
One of the best monster taming titles of all time, with a style and vibe all its own that you won't find anywhere else. Don't let my low playtime fool you, I've also picked this title up on iOS AND the Switch. It is GOOD.
Decided to play this on a whim after seeing that a sequel is in the works and was not disappointed in the slightest. This game is delightful. A densely designed open world gives you lots to look for and do and it's backed up by a very likable cast of companion characters, npcs and the like. There's a nice variety in all of the mon designs (both visually and mechanically) which kept me rotating between new captures my whole playthrough. The battle mechanics are a nice standout too, since types/elements feel more reactive than the simple RPS format you'd expect from the usual games in this genre. All in all, an easy recommend for fans of monster tamer games and I'm excitedly looking forward to 2002!
インディーズ製ポ〇モンの中では非常に良くできたゲームだと思います。 モンスターデザインはインディーズーにありがちなTHE・海外製クリーチャーではありますが、トンチキデザインは少ないので楽しめる範囲だと思います。２Dポ〇モンというよりGBA時代のアクションアドベンチャー系（２D時代のゼル伝シリーズ）に近いです。マップを埋めるために、宝箱を開けるために、モンスターを探すために広大なマップを練り歩く冒険です。モンスターを捕まえると追加されるアクションもあるので、地図が開けてもボリュームのある探検ができます。物語はヴィラン側のセリフ回しが終始抽象的ですが、キャラクター交流イベントも含めて楽しめる内容でした。 ただ、どうにも移動面の不便と戦闘面に粗が目立ちます。ファストトラベルもかなり少なく、クエスト消化や高低差の多い地形に行く場合がかなり面倒です。戦闘バランスもかなり大味でHPに対して反射ダメージやDotダメージがものすごく大きいため、１戦するだけでHPが半分削られることはざらにあります。更に回復リソースは有限、しかもかなり少なく設定されているため、数回戦闘しては拠点に戻るを繰り返す必要があります。
口袋妖怪的仿制品，玩法说不上无聊，只是我现在这个年龄已经玩不了这么慢节奏的游戏了。
THIS GAME IS A MASTERPIECE i have way more hours on this game on different devices but it is amazing if you like monster collecting games and want something new this is perfect!!
This has to be one of the most unique creature collectors on the market, I love how it took what came before it in the genre and took it's own spin on it, instead of how most tend to just wear their Pokémon inspiration on their sleeves and call it a day. It says a lot to me that I both saw a friend finish this and still wanted to play it and also want to get every achievement in the game. If you like the idea of a more technical "Type chart" where no type is truly stronger or weaker than another with a more folk-loreish take on it's creatures then you'll love this. The dynamic music is also incredible , I can't think of a vocal track I dislike in this game I cannot wait to see what Byten does with 2002 as this game sold me on it and any future works
