About
Delve deep into the Metroidvania inspired world of Monster Sanctuary, explore the expansive lands and call upon your monsters to lend their aid in and out of combat! Use their unique skills to fly, ride and brute force your way through environmental puzzles and precise platforming! The world is yours to traverse as you see fit, are you ready to take on the Sanctuary?
Your quest begins with a choice of an ancient spectral familiar, a wistful monster who will guide your first steps into the sanctuary. They will be by your side as you catch your first of 111 monsters. From here it is up to you to hatch, collect, evolve and train monsters from across the Sanctuary! Each possesses unique abilities and a skill tree for you to customise as your team grows in strength.
Strategically order your attacks for maximum efficiency, stacking your attacks to deal devastating combos! Try out different team combinations and make use of synergies between your monsters. Encounter formidable foes, endurance challenges and train an unbeatable team!
Face off in a test of skill and ability in online player vs player! Gather and train monsters, max out their skill trees and take on friends and foes in an epic battle to have the last monsters standing!
Added with the latest update, you can enable and combine optional Randomizer, Bravery and Permadeath game modes, making every playthrough a fresh and different experience.

很不错的游戏，内容丰富
I am of the firm believe that Castlevania and Pokemon had sex to create this game and the offspring is one of my favorites of the decade.

For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 24 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 9 places towards #1, and the 2,404 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.

super, cooles Game. Hat ne tolle Story und coole Kreaturen. Für alle die "Pokemon-like" Spiele mögen, ist das eine klare Kaufempfehlung. Mein einziger Kritikpunkt befindet sich im Endgame, da man mit seinen Monstern, die man lieb gewonnen hat, eigentlich nicht mehr gewinnen kann. Man braucht wirklich ein gut abgestimmtes Team und eine gute Taktik dahinter, aber dann ist das Endgame auch machbar.
史上最催眠的游戏。画面很精致，系统很粗糙。
评分：8.3/10 很不错的类宝可梦游戏，就是 后面没更新了
The best monster collector. Waiting for a sequel.
横スクロール型探索アクションとターン制RPGバトルは融合したゲーム。 モンスターはコレクション性があり、一戦3体(キーパーバトルは6体)しか使用できないが バフデバフの効果が高くモンスター同士のシナジー効果を探す楽しさもある。 アクション、バトル共に適度な難易度で止め時が見つからなくなってしまう。
Truly an underrated gem.
(최종 보스 + 전설의 파수꾼 클리어, 맵 100% 클리어, 챔피언작은 절반 정도, PVP 아직 안함) 할인 중일때 구매해서 사흘 동안 44시간 플레이한 후기: 매우 만족스러움. 메트로배니아 장르는 '여기 지금 못 가네? 나중에 어떤 아이템, 어떤 스킬 얻고 다시 와야겠네'를 얼마나 잘 구현했냐가 게임 완성도를 좌우한다고 생각하는데, 맵에 지역별 완성도 표시해줌 & 메모 추가 가능 = 편의성이 좋아서 불쾌하다는 느낌이 거의 없었음. 컬렉팅 게임이라 파티 조합할 때 고려할게 꽤 많음. 적 몬스터의 주 공격 속성/취약 속성, 내 몬스터들의 속성이나 종족 버프 시너지, 딜러/탱커/힐러 스킬트리 빌드와 넣어줘야 할 무기나 장신구 등등. 처음에는 모르는게 당연하고 고이는데 조금 걸리는 것 같음. 만약 초반에 시간을 좀 투자해서라도 플레이를 쾌적하게 하고 싶다면 Monster Sanctuary Fandom wiki 참고하면 좋음. 맵 지역별 주요 아이템/히든/보스 위치, 퍼즐 기믹 파훼법 다 있어서 아주 괜찮음. 레딧 채널/몬생갤 등등 커뮤니티 들어가서 Best Build 검색해보는 것도 방법임. 누가 구글 드라이브에 오픈 문서로 몬스터별 스킬빌드 파일도 올려놨던데 잘 찾아보면 나올 거임. 마을 귀환서는 필요할 때만 써도 전혀 안 부족하니 초반부터 너무 아끼지 말고 써도 됨. 몬스터 레벨업 아이템도 마찬가지임. 어차피 만렙이 42로 고정이고, 나중 가면 몹들 레벨 자체가 높아져서 알 까면 레벨 35 이상으로 시작하는 몹도 많으니까 그렇게까지 아낄 필요 없음. 냥서커, 고블린 시리즈 등 초반 알짜배기 몹들 육성 잘 시켜서 스토리 밀 겸 투자하는 것도 괜찮다고 생각함. 스토리는 솔직히 평범한 왕도식 전개라 재미없음. 근데 스토리 가지고 게임할거면 컬렉팅 장르 말고 AAA급 RPG, 비주얼 노벨, 소울류를 하러 가는게 맞다고 생각함.
I really liked the strategy involved in choosing your team and abilities. I don't want to spoil the story for anyone, but, if you can, you should definitely get this game.
