Prices
Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
Availability
We put this game to every storefront we collect. A market that answered not sold has told us something about the game; a market we never asked has not, and the two are never drawn the same.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.

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?

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.

Vaya buena sorpresa me encontré navegando aburrido por steam, que divertido y con un buen sistema de combate y mapa increíble, lo único que me hubiera gustado mas en lo personal es que los monstruos tuvieran mas habilidades diferentes fuera del mundo o que por ejemplo si tienen la misma habilidad que haya diferentes niveles de esta habilidad así como la de planear que hay monstruos que planeas solo un poquito y otros que ya estas un tiempo mas que decente en el aire Resumen: MUY divertido si te gustan los combates por turnos, explorar y el coleccionismo

14 of 15 markets; the rest we haven't asked for this title, not markets where it is unavailable.
14 on sale1 answered “not sold”0 we did not ask
The 1 “not sold” market is read from the Steam price pass of Sep 20: that day the store answered for this game elsewhere and gave no price there. The 14 priced markets are the same rows as the table above — each the latest price we hold, dated here when it is older than that pass. The 0 marked “not asked” were not put to this store at all — either it has no storefront there or we do not collect it yet, and neither is a statement about the game. A refusal is a refusal on one day; a store can list a title again tomorrow.

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.

I beat the game in under 33 hours, and the only major achievement I had left was defeating all of the Legendary Keepers, which is basically ultra-endgame content. Because of that, I honestly don’t understand a lot of the reviews claiming the game is excessively grindy or that progression eventually becomes impossible. That's directly not true. If you understand the systems, which only requires reading (the major counter of some players), the game is pretty straightforward. If you are thinking of this game is good, check the Global Achievements. Roughly 1 out of every 4 players who starts the game actually finishes it. A completion rate around 25% is pretty solid when you compare it with the vast majority of games. There are definitely things you can criticize about the game, but the majority of the negative reviews say that it’s grindy, that you have to grind to get the monster egg (normally drops in the first 4 star battle) or that you simply can’t keep advancing because you don't have the skills (capture more monsters because you missed one that allows you to do that), are not true.
A fantastic game, a perfect blend of Metroidvania and creature collection. If you love creating builds, solving puzzles, and discovering secret areas, this is game your game. Plus, mid game when you think you've seen it all, a new mechanic breathes new life into team building. In short, hours of fun, a constant challenge, and a highly engaging combat system thanks to the wide variety of monster combinations and their synergies. A must-have for fans of creature collection games, turn-based combat, and Metroidvanias.
2.5/5吧。挺肝的,但是精灵很可爱都。战斗模式太枯燥了,全是跑图,要是能开启那种刷怪模式和冒险模式就好了,不想一个地图跑完了回去还要重新打怪,很多地图没法一次性跑完,得解密就很麻烦。传送点再多一点、密集一点就好了,跑的很累。
Buen juego de jrpg con capturas de monstruos, corre en una patata.
Good Game. A good 30 or so hours of fun to 100%.
so fun with mods
Surprisingly deep monster building and strategic combat makes this a great game if you're the type who likes obsessing and tweaking every stat and synergy in your team. I really like how even the dinky 'starter' or unevolved creatures can stay relevant if you build them right. There's a nice diversity of different monsters, too. The story is extremely basic, but the mechanics are the real meat of this game. I didn't try the online PvP so I can't speak to that aspect, however.
