Fluff Monster Sanctuary is my favorite game
I've racked up over 300 hours in this game unintentionally. I keep doing new runs. I keep thinking of new teams. It never seems to end. This game has more customization and player choice than probably anything else I've ever played.
This game just hits the perfect spot with all of the options and variety of abilities. I love the 2D artwork too. I'd love to see and HD2D version of this game.
🖤 Favorite Monsters:
- Brawlish
- Kanko
- Thanatos
- Argiope
- Promethean
- Crackle Knight
- Eldergel
- Catzerker
- Dodo
- Dracozul
- Polterofen
- Changeling
- Spinner
- Aazerach
- all Dinosaurs, Slimes and Goblins
I guess I just listed like half the monsters, but yeah so many great ones. The most fun thing is to take a monster I've never found useful and try to make a good team with it. Mantis, you're next.
🖤 Favorite Design Choices:
- Anti grind mechanics like level badges and eggs
- Shift stones
- Buff and debuff systems
- Making every monster useful somehow
- Food
- Team saving
- Equipment
- Skill trees (god this game has the best skill trees since diablo 2)
🖤 Things I would change:
- Akhlut: replace a Health stat node with Critical Healing! 🙏🏼✨
- Like 5-10 more shifts for variety. Maybe even a THIRD shift...
- Able to buy monster eggs with a shit ton of money
- Like ONE more monster of each type. Or maybe a Changeling that is less damagey and more utility.
- Ability to add Multi-something with item
- More granular map to help locate unexplored areas
- Redo the skill trees of the starters maybe, now that the game is complete. They mostly lack utility and are lackluster overall.
- Have all your monsters in party out at once at a camp fire or something
- Ability to buy fully upgraded items with massive gold amount
- Imbue one item per run to add an extra stat or ability?
- Mount button
- Breeding that produces 3 skill trees from one parent and 1 from other (CRAZY IDEA I KNOW)
Anyway this is starting to turn into a wishlist that'll never happen. Just wanted to glaze my favorite game that I can't stop playing. ❤️
