Critic Reviews
- Monster Slayers is a fun and deep adventure that lets the player decide how they want to approach it. Even with a complex battle system, the harsh difficulty curve may be enough to turn many players off once they’ve completed the first dungeon. At the end of the day, the sheer joy of building a deck that suits your own playstyle is what makes this game special. Monster Slayers is one game not to overlook, if you’re even remotely interested.
Brett Posner-Ferdman · Apr 17, 2019 Reviewed on SwitchRead full review - Monster Slayers is a neat and simple little game lacking in the strategy department with some irritating port issues stopping it from hitting the heights. A perfect game for turning down the volume and just listening to some audiobooks or podcasts while you slay, die and slay again.
Emil Gunnarsson · May 18, 2018 Reviewed on PS4Read full review - If you’re a fan of deck building or dungeon crawlers then Monster Slayers is a must try. For the $9 price tag there is an insane amount of content and replayability. Even just beating the Harbinger a single time is worth the price of admission, let alone trying out all the classes and taking a shot at Legendary mode. It’s hard to come up with anything negative to say about Monster Slayers; it’s really just a fun and balanced good time.
Daniel Batoff · Apr 26, 2017 Reviewed on PCRead full review - Several times over the last week or so, I’ve considered whether to sit down with Nier, Horizon, Torment, or Gravity Rush 2. It’s a tough decision. They’re worlds you fall into. Each of them is the sort of game you play for several hours at a time. You don’t boot them up lightly. Which one have I chosen? Well, before I commit, how about running a character real quick in Monster Slayers? Oops, I’ve just fallen into a world. A deck-building utopia.
Tom Chick · Mar 30, 2017 Reviewed on PCRead full review - If you're at all interested in rogue-lite and/or card-building games, check out Monster Slayers. It manages the priorities and expectations of each genre well, and wraps them both in a dungeon-crawling role-player framework. There are a couple of technical hitches and some boring repetition, but also a plethora of character and card options and some addictive tactical gameplay. Show a lot of patience and the game will find a way to reward you.
Evan Norris · Apr 07, 2019 Reviewed on SwitchRead full review - Various RPG elements add a layer of depth to an already interesting combat system. The card element becomes addictive in a fun way, and slowly building up the characters is a task that many players will quickly come to enjoy. Most of the game connects very well with itself, barring the large issue of randomness in difficulty. To some degree, luck is always expected, but the complete and sudden difficulty cliffs that always occur later on ruin the immersion the rest of the game so carefully crafted. Perhaps a 'hardcore' mode would be a better option because the deadly spikes severely hamper what is otherwise a great game.
Eric Ace · Mar 23, 2017 Reviewed on PCRead full review - Laat je niet foppen door de generieke naam; Monster Slayers is een zeer goede dungeon crawler/deck builder combinatie. Een simpel, maar diep combat systeem zorgt voor voldoende afwisseling in de procedureel gegenereerde dungeons. Door steeds meer bonussen en kaarten vrij te spelen, deze in de dungeons te upgraden en de meerdere inzetmogelijkheden van veel kaarten blijft de variatie er goed in. Dat de game wat van de finesse van zijn concurrenten mist en de gebruikersinterface rommelig kan zijn, valt te overzien.
