Add "Monster Taming" as a tag!

[Noah Lewin Dev]

Never once in a real conversation have I said, "Did you play that new creature collector game?". I have and have always heard them referred to as monster taming games. Creature Collector has no precedent and fans of the genre have been using "Monster Taming" for years. Official reddit page, discords, yearly direct, etc all use it. The community and devs like my self would really appreciate the tag added.

I added the "Monster Taming" tag to Sakura Dungeon .

monster taming tag please

[Zodka]

100% agree! I've always either called them Monster Taming/Tamers, or just Mon Games back when most of them ended in -mon

I have now added the "Monster Taming" tag to the following games I own on Switch that I could find on Steam:

Dragon Quest: Treasures
Monster Crown
Monster Rancher 1 & 2 DX
Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch
Ni No Kuni II: Revenant Kingdom
Paleo Pines

Finally! Someone who actually read the advice that was given many replies ago.

Have a freaking award for that!

Agreed

[GalinaMalina]

100% agree! "Monster Taming" is more fitting for both our games (Monster Sanctuary and Aethermancer) and is the term that players and devs use way more commonly

[Kionum]

Everyone but steam calls it monster taming please add it as a tag!

Wikipedia has it's own
- article about "monster taming games" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monster-taming_game) and
- a game category page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Monster-taming_games) for them.
So why not stick with that?

The more people searching for "monster taming" while not being redirected to "creature collector"
-> The more people will find stuff they like
-> The more people will buy the stuff they like
-> Profit (for Steam/ Valve in this case)

Long story short: please add the tag, everyone would benefit from that, especially Valve/ Steam :)

then start tagging

[PeppermintTiger]

Full support, the monster taming tag would more accurately describe the genre I enjoy. I'm not interested in only collecting creatures like trading cards, I want games with monsters I can actually interact with.
