About Monster Duelist
"Monster Duelist" immerses players into a mysterious world where they assume the role of a monster duelist. Exploring vast territories, they capture various unique monsters. Through battles against formidable opponents, players enhance their combat prowess, striving to become the ultimate duelist. Utilizing the monsters they capture, they assemble a powerful team, engage in battles, and demonstrate their skills and courage!
How to play Monster Duelist
Nothing here needs explaining twice. You will want a keyboard for this one — the arrow keys / WASD carry most of it, and the table below has the rest. The game runs in portrait, so on a phone you can play one-handed, and on desktop it stays centred rather than stretched out of shape. Restarting is instant, so there is no cost to experimenting.
