Retro Suggestions #1: MASTER OF MONSTERS (Sega Genesis)
Recently, I saw a post on Twitter asking about RPG games that made an impression on you and when I went to suggest this game, I saw that there is practically no recent video of it, so I wanted to record a video and that gave me the idea to make a feature on the channel, called "Retro Suggestions", where I will bring suggestions of games that I really like and that have been part of my life.
Master of Monsters is an electronic game originally released for Mega Drive in 1991, and had a sequel for Playstation. Basically, you are a sorcerer who commands mythological creatures to try to destroy another sorcerer who also controls creatures on a map. The game style is a bit reminiscent of the Mage Knight miniatures game. The biggest attraction of the game is that the controlled creatures can evolve (anticipating the Pokémon series by many years).
The soundtrack, composed by Hayato Matsuo, is one of the most incredible ever made for this console. I tend to use the songs from this game a lot in several of my projects, and you can hear them in "Battle Stormer Classics", "Avengers United Battle Force" among others. In fact, one of the enemies from the Greece chapter was extracted from this game
There is a version for Playstation 1 called "Master of Monsters: Disciples of Gaia" which I also played. Despite having better graphics, loadings hinder the game - and the effect of rotating characters during the fight makes the battle much slower.
Anyone looking for a tactical RPG, in the style of a board game, give this game a try!
