Description: Monster Collector is a physics based VR melee combat game. You can fight all kinds of unique monsters in the sandbox. Dragons, Demons, Mythological Creatures. Each creature can bring you different experience. You can tear them apart, slice them to half.
Review: ‘Monster Collector’ is a monster battling game rather than collecting them, but you do get to do a bit of both at least. One of the first things to point out is the monster psychics. With detailed damage and slicing the core level in this game is high, you can literally chop a monster into tiny pieces if you want to waste your time doing so. While there are not a whole lot of monsters to kill here you will enjoy killing them for a short while at least. OK, so the graphics are basic, but with all the blood and guts thrown in you won’t notice them as much as you might think. The idea of the game if you select 1 or more monsters, pick 1 of the 3 maps and then you go into battle.
While I can’t help but enjoy all the limb chopping and head slicing there is simply nothing here worth the current £19.49 asking price. If this game was less than half that price I might have been recommending it, but until it is I don’t feel it is worth a look mostly due to the lack of overall content. Maybe wait for a few updates before giving it a go.
