Was disappointed that 12/13 year ancient thought game was too young. This was rated to be excellent for kids though.

OK, for me in person, not too exciting (waaaay too small challenge), but it’s not really meant for 30-something moms. It’s meant for their elementary and middle school boys (and girls). My preschooler is too young to play but keeps having me play so he can watch the monsters fight. The “fights” are basically a variation of rock-paper-scissors, and the monsters actions look like small kids “fighting”. Sometimes, one monster will hurt the other by farting. Other times, belching. I just leveled up to the point where they throw boogers and something from under their armpits. (I DID say elementary boys are the target, remember.) Customizing the monsters is fun, too.
Ingredients to make tonics to help defeat other monsters include wire bundles (from smashing cars in the junkyard), teddy bears (from the honest ground trash cans), globs of oil and water, cat skeletons (trash cans), coin jars, and more. For what I take upon yourself is the target market of elementary boys, I reflect they’ll like it.

As a huge fan of monsters, and remembering an ancient game where you could build and fight monsters, I bought this game sight unseen. A slight mistake, as I reflect I am a bit outside of the age demographic for this game now.
You start in the laboratory, and have a fledgling monster to work with that looks a bit like Shrek. From there you can add a variety of different types of spines, spikes, tattoos, ears, etc. Kind of like a Mr. Potato Head, but more interactive.
From there, you send your monster out into the quite large world to explore, gather ingredients, eat gruffins (the terrible guys) and of course, fight other monsters.
Gruffins look like rabbits, and they replenish your shape if you lose a battle, and also confer some immunity to a type of elemental hurt. So eat a red gruffin to get protection from fire attacks, blue for protection from water attacks, etc.
Gathering ingredients is done by smashing all sorts of things apart and collecting what’s left. Then you can place them together in the lab to make potions to enhance your monster during combat.
Finally there is the combat. It is a turn based type system, so you can choose what attack you want to use (Punch, pound, or block) and then it compares to the type of attack the opponent uses.
While an okay game, I was expecting a small more action from the combat and exploring. This is why I said it is a splendid game depending on your age. The monsters are very well animated, and if you delight in building and accessorizing your beast (kind of like in the Sims) it has a lot of options. There is even an area where you can take the monsters picture and he will do various poses.
Also, the animations for the creatures during the fights are droll, with both sides doing dance moves, “talk to the hand”, and quite a few other things including “mooning” the other monster when they defeat it.
So, if you are looking for a tactical simulation or quick paced RTS game, you won’t be pleased. If you are looking for something a bit cuter that would appeal to someone a bit younger, then you will probably be quite pleased with this game. I don’t reflect it will be a game that makes it into the teen years, but younger than that, and it would be excellent.
