Monster Rancher 1 & 2 DX

It's hard for me to recommend this game to casual monster tamer fans. To this day, no other title has tried the kind of simulation that Monster Rancher does, and for a number of games in a row that has included Monster Rancher. But if your favorite kind of gameplay is menuing and min-maxing, no other game in the monster tamer sub-genre hits quite like this. A lot of the game's information is hidden from you, which you may enjoy or you may find frustrating; there are tools online that will help you see what's hiding from you, and will make the overall experience more enjoyable. This style of simulation is definitely something you should experience if you're a fan of other monster tamers. Somewhere between Monster Rancher's gameplay and Beastieball's story is my ideal game.

It was fun playing these games in PS1 and more fun now that I know the secrets and have access to all the monsters information.

Absolutely one of my favorite games, nothing has ever clicked for me so easily. The gameplay itself is easy to understand and fun to actually play, the different aspects of the game keeps my full attention the entire time i'm playing there wasn't a single second of my so far 7 hours played as of making this review where i felt bored in the slightest. Genuinely one of the best games i've played its kept me entertained and i have so much learning new things with every monster!
