Cassette Beasts - JokesOnYouISuck's Review & Gameplay [Gamepass]
Dive into the vibrant world of "Cassette Beasts," a superb open-world RPG that embraces the monster-collecting magic we all adore. Set in a peculiar universe, you wash ashore to discover a new power and a quirky twist on the classic Pokémon concept: the ability to record creatures on cassette tapes and transform into them to harness their powers.
With 120 base monsters and elemental variants, "Cassette Beasts" makes sure you never get bored. But here's the kicker: forge deeper bonds with your fighting companion to fuse pairs of monsters mid-battle, creating novel powerhouse hybrids with distinct appearances. It's a gameplay experience that effortlessly mixes nostalgic charm with refreshing innovation.
Straying from Pokémon's self-imposed limitations, "Cassette Beasts" lets you flex your creativity. Experimentation is the name of the game, and you're encouraged to try new things. The sticker system for teaching moves keeps things dynamic, allowing seamless transfer between monsters without any penalty.
While combat pacing might feel a tad sluggish with its turn-based mechanics, spending time in menus is a minor trade-off for the expansive adventure it offers. The world is teeming with monsters, making exploration a delight. The elemental interactions could be clearer, and some quality-of-life improvements could be added, but these niggles don't ruin the fun.
Running about 20 hours for the main story, "Cassette Beasts" is generous with content, ensuring that every moment is engaging. For those burnt out on Pokemon, or those without a Nintendo console, this is a perfect gaming alternative. "Cassette Beasts" not only takes the best aspects of classic Pokemon games, but also in many ways manages to improve on it with its own infectious flavor, making it an absolute must-play.
Overall, I give this game 81 percent.
