make. There was originally going to be 8 episodes (including a water stage)
but I ran out of time so I left it with 4. There were going to be more
enemies on the other stages like frogs, wizards, and a lot of dragons (the
game was originally going to be called Dragon Slayer), but instead, there’s
two new kinds of enemies on each episode, and four episodes. I call them
“episodes” instead of stages because each episode is like a mini-game. Each
episode has it’s own story and ending, so it’s like four separate quests.
Two other things that were left out (not because I ran out of time, but
because I didn’t think the game needed them) are spells and gold. With magic
your character was going to be able to use a few different spells to do things
like regain health and strike enemies with lightning. With gold, you would
get gold coins every time you killed a monster, and there would be shops
throughout the game where you could buy things like health potions and new
spells. I hope this game is not too hard; for me it’s easy because I made it
but some people might think that the bosses are too difficult. If they are,
then I apologize, but you can figure out the patterns of the bosses and try
to get to them with as much health left as possible. Wow! You actually read
all this? Here’s a clue: try killing the king on episode one and see what
happens.
Another thing that really makes Monster Slayer enjoyable for me is how it manages to stay interesting even after playing it multiple times. Many games feel repetitive after a while, but here, the experience still feels fresh because of the small details and different ways you can approach the gameplay. As you continue playing, you naturally start improving and understanding the mechanics better, which makes everything feel more rewarding. I also appreciate the balance the game maintains—it’s not too difficult, but it’s not too easy either. You can play it casually for a short break or spend longer sessions without getting bored. That flexibility is one of the biggest reasons why I keep coming back to Monster Slayer. Overall, it’s the kind of game that doesn’t just entertain you for a moment, but actually gives you a consistently enjoyable experience every time you play.
