Master of Monsters : Disciples of Gaia ships

[12.11.98] » ASCII's remake of the Genesis cult-hit should arrive in stores today.

   For a few gamers, the answer to a question about their favorite title ever to reach the Genesis wouldn't be Sonic-this, or Phantasy Star-that. It'd be a little-known game called Master of Monsters. And by the time you read this, a re-release for the Sony PlayStation should already been available in North American stores.

   ASCII's remake remains similar to the original. Masters of Monsters is a strategy RPG in which you must choose a master character and summon monsters in order to vanquish your foes. Early impressions of the game have been critical of the visuals used, which ASCII has countered by asserting gameplay over graphics. The game boasts up to four player strategy, and a plethora of monsters, items, and weapons.

   We'll be bringing you a review of the title within the next few weeks.
