Tell us if you have heard this one before. A metroidvania, a monster tamer, and a JRPG all walk into a bar... Ok there isn't a joke like that BUT if those three had a night to remember then 9 months later we would have Monster Sanctuary. The game is made with love in all aspects and delivers an awesome platforming, creature taming and battling, RPG experience that is excellent. Brett shares about his recent time with the game.
