The Monster Breeder

A turn-based fantasy management game about breeding arena fighters and running one of the Empire’s monster-breeding houses. Crossbred offspring randomly inherit their parents’ physical traits and abilities, while expeditions can uncover new species at a financial and personal risk. Monsters gain experience in arena fights, and their traits can be enhanced with feed, potions, magic, and surgery. Excessive intervention can cause illness, shorten a creature’s lifespan, and temporarily make it unfit to fight.

Arena conditions provide different advantages and disadvantages, and warriors, archers, and mages can be hired to fight alongside the monsters. Specialization and equipment also affect combat. The enterprise can be expanded by constructing or upgrading buildings, hiring a blacksmith or alchemist, and taking on quests. Loans can help with financial trouble, but high interest rates may lead to bankruptcy.
