"Dawn of the Monsters stumbles into some of the more common pitfalls of belt-scrolling fighters, but it has enough flair, polish and excitement to be a more than worthy offering, particularly played in couch co-op with a friend. We wish there were a few more playable creatures, but the ones on offer here are all very distinct and enormous fun to get to grips with. It's a richly rewarding game, with higher ranks unlocking new skins and upgrades from the in-game shop (don't worry, no microtransactions here) which offer an incentive to keep playing - though the real reason you'll stick with Dawn of the Monsters is that it is, quite simply, very good indeed. While it has a few problems, they're nothing that will stop you having a blast with this Brobdingnagian beat-'em-up."

About

This adventure title throws the spooky TV family into a haunted castle. As you switch between characters, you'll wander rooms collecting tools to solve puzzles and fend off monsters. The goal is to accumulate magic power by fending off creatures without getting hit. Each contact drains health, and one mistake means game over. Combat and exploration are tied to resource management, balancing item gathering with survival. The retro charm of 80s graphics and simple mechanics makes it feel like a time capsule. With no save feature and a single life, the tension is constant. It's a relic of a time when trial and error meant starting from scratch. Fans of old-school challenge will appreciate the brutal difficulty.
