[gamescom]”Monster Run” premieres and tells the story of giant monsters fighting hundreds of humans

Monster Run, announced at gamescom 2023 in Cologne, Germany, is a PC RPG developed by Interactive Fate in Estonia. I reviewed this work at the publisher’s Iceberg Interactive booth, so I’d like to tell you about the contents of the game.

“Monster Run” is a game set in a medieval European style world where you play the role of a big monster like a black panther who exploded in rage against the humans who invaded the forest where they lived peacefully. It attacks hundreds of humans who are resting or waiting in line, and lifts them into a bloodbath with its large claws.

“Unlike zombies, humans are not stupid and use different tactics,” he said. They don’t rush at the player and crush them, and many enemies are modified so that they can’t be defeated with a single hit. There are 66 types of enemy soldiers, and major characters such as giant heavy soldiers will also appear.

In addition, by eating human bread, meat, cheese, etc. scattered around the stage, monsters grow and become huge, and RPG-like growth elements such as blowing fire and emitting poison from their tentacles are also prepared.
Eidma says that unique foods will be added, such as grapes that turn into alcohol that causes the screen to shake when eaten, and mushrooms that grant certain abilities for a certain period of time. In addition, if a monster moves for a long time, its stamina will decrease and it will breathe with its shoulders, so it is necessary to take a rest every now and then. Only monsters that are not ferocious seem to have a connection.

Right now, I’m thinking about whether to make the game’s music or put environmental sounds like wind in the foreground, and it looks like it’s going to be a while before release. if you are interested,Steam store pageAdd it to your Watchlist and follow updates.
