Play Monstania (Japan) Online
You command a squad of oddball monsters—slimes, cannon turtles, fire bats—in tight tactical battles where every move counts. The pixel art pops, and fights feel like solving little puzzles with your weird little team.
Monstania came out in 1996 for the Super Nintendo, developed by Pack-In-Video. It was one of those late-era SNES games that tried something a little different, a strategy RPG where you lead a party of monsters instead of knights or wizards. It didn't get a lot of attention at the time, but it had a quirky charm that stood out.
You control a group of monsters, like slimes and cannon turtles, moving them across grid-based maps in turn-based combat. Your main goal is to clear each screen of enemies before advancing to the next. The game uses a signature mechanic where your monsters have unique abilities tied to their type; some attack from a distance, others push enemies into hazards. Exploration is screen by screen, and the pacing is deliberate, with an emphasis on careful positioning. It feels like solving a series of small, tactical puzzles with an unconventional team.
