Monster Radar Plus

About

Monster Radar Plus is a creature-tracking simulator that tasks you with scanning the environment for elusive monsters using a portable radar system. You spend most of your time navigating open areas, identifying different species, and collecting data to expand your knowledge. The single player campaign focuses on managing a research base, upgrading equipment, and completing objectives tied to each discovery. Gameplay is methodical, emphasizing observation and cataloging over action. The update to version 2.00 adds new species, improved radar mechanics, and enhanced visuals that take advantage of the Vita's hardware. While the slow paced nature might not suit everyone, fans of methodical sims will appreciate the depth in creature behavior and the challenge of locating rare specimens. Sony Online Entertainment's touch based interface works well for on the go play, though the lack of multiplayer might limit long term engagement for some.
