>Monster Rancher (known as Monster Farm in Japan) is a console and handheld RPG franchise that combines the heart-pounding battling action and raiseable critters of a Mons series with the strategy and challenge of a simulation and management game.
>The ultimate goal? To Be a Master and win the ultimate cup of the game, whatever that may be. But nothing lasts forever, and eventually, your epic monster will grow old and die—you can either retire them, or "fuse" them into a new, baby monster and start again.
>The series has gained some renown among gamers for its extremely unique means of obtaining monsters. Rather than running out and catching them or raising them to evolve into other creatures, you create monsters from ordinary CDs and DVDs. By reading "subcode data" off of CDs, games in the Monster Rancher franchise create monsters from pretty much any disc you can stuff into your PlayStation. Certain discs even unlock specific rare monsters, often ones that play off the content of the CD or DVD.
>Another thing about Monster Rancher games? They're hard. Really hard. This is partially due to their depth—despite looking fairly simple, there's a lot that goes on in the background. Due to the legendary difficulty and important mechanics not being told to the player, the series became a cult classic overseas, though it remains fairly popular in Japan.
>Not to be confused with Monster Hunter. If you should find Hunters on your Ranch, be prepared for some intense territorial disputes. Also not to be confused with Monster Racers, which is a racing game, or Monster Racer, which is a mascot racer, or with Slime Rancher which is about raising slimes (not Jells). Despite the identical Japanese name, it is not to be confused with Monster Farm either.
think I've found a hidden gem :nyaoo-closedeyes:
