So you like Binding of Issac, Nuclear Throne, Enter the Gungeon, etc? Well to be fair this game really doesn't do too much to separate itself from the rest of the crowd - not that that's a bad thing if you like those games I named.

The story is plain and simple you are transported into a videogame to save your sister - sounds easy enough, right? There are 5 areas (forest, dungeon, etc) each having increasingly tougher and more enemies. The levels are procedurally generated but you can retry a floor until you beat it which I felt was nice. The later levels actually were easier since you can buy guns and health upgrades.

A couple negative points: 1) the game is short as you can see my playtime is just under 2 hours and 2) the final boss was a little simpler/easier than I would have liked.

A couple positive points: 1) weapons variety is good (each has its own feel) 2) there is a bit of replayability via an arcade mode if that's you thing.

Some closing thoughts: I imagine a lot of people will pass on this just given that it doesn't drop cards but honestly this is truly a gem at this price point. Hope this helps.

I really enjoyed the game!
Considering it is a low cost project, it has a great gameplay and is very well balanced.
And this soundtrack is really very good, I hope they make it available as dlc.

Usually you would look at the one dollar price and make an assumption of the bad quality of the game.
Well, this game can have a lot of more features. But the selling point is that it does good with what it has.

Story wise, you just blitz through the levels, upgrade your weapons, defeat the weak boss and save your sister. Nothing much there.

But you'll see some attention to details -

• The monsters of this game are smarter than your usual top-down
  
• Your screen is your vision range. Enemies off-screen can fire at you, and you can attack them too (fire where the laser sight is coming from)
  
• The level is randomly generated each time you die. So difficulty varies per play.

There's one small problem with the game. Buying ammo for any weapon gives equal number of bullets (15). So you'll get 15 bullets for the rocket launcher or your machine-gun, at the same price. That was kinda messed up.

Still, easily recommened for one hour of play.

This game is really fun! One fall is that the chest opening is really bad, there is a huge delay to it. Fun game and sometimes frustrating.

Its a great game. i had a lot of fun playing it but the "boss" fight was really disappointing. After the last few stages i thought the boss fight will be a challenge but its just a joke

Very hard and very much game bug

Just found this game by pure accident, and I am glad that I did!

These developers are way underselling this super fun little indie gem for just 99 cents when I feel it offers plenty of value and replay value to warrant a $10 price tag!

Watch my "First Play Impressions Video" right HERE:

While this game has a couple of minor little bugs, it still scored an impressive 95% score using my unique scoring system which grades indie games more on value and fun that it does graphics. Because of the high score and my recent discovery of this amazing little game, I started a whole new series on my YT channel called" Discovered Hidden Gem!" just for games like this one here!

* Procedural dungeon generation helps deliver a high replay value.
* This game offers fantastic keyboard and mouse controls with very good response
* Tons of different enemies and enemy tactics keep the adventure to find your sister interesting and fresh
* An awesome item shop that allows you to constantly progress your game towards newer and more powerful gear
* Music is catchy and fits the mood perfectly
* Game sounds are also high quality as are explosion and screen shake effects
* Has a super addictive quality that will have you playing again and again

An absolute STEAL at just 99 cents! - HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Great two-player, cooperative game.

Legends of Monsters is an adorable arcade pixel shooter in which you're trying to rescue your sister from a evil horde consisting of zombies, ghosts, and even ninja, these enemies are spread throughout five different levels, however once you complete the game a new mode called Random is unlocked in which all enemies can be seen in one level.

Unfortunately there's far more negative than positive when it comes to this game. After reloading the game in the campaign mode, I lost access to my secondary weapon slot and no matter what I do, I'm unable to reobtain it, making the levels much more annoying to complete. Another issue I've had is that I'm unable to find this "Arcade" mode the achievements mention. Either it doesn't exist or the Kill X achievements are broken.
In Random mode, when you die after buying a weapon, that weapon is impossible to get again, forcing you to go back in to the menu and replay Random mode. Another issue that annoys me is that the game claims there to be 11 weapons, however after completing campaign mode and unlocking all purchasable weapons, I've gotten nine.

Overall, it's a disaster of a game filled with some of the bugs I've mentioned, but there are more, such as the ghosts reappearing outside the level, thus being unable to be killed.

gameplay is funny, story very good .. (y)
horror funny :)
