Release Date: 1997
"Monster Slider" is an intriguing puzzle game released exclusively for the Sega Saturn in 1997. Developed by Kaze, the game remained largely under the radar in the West due to its limited release, primarily in Japan. The crux of the gameplay in "Monster Slider" revolves around sliding blocks to create matching combinations. Players control cute, monster-themed blocks on a 2D grid, aiming to slide them strategically to align three or more similar blocks horizontally or vertically. Each level presents unique challenges and requires careful manipulation of the blocks within a set number of moves or under time constraints, adding a layer of strategic depth and urgency to the puzzle-solving experience.
The game features several modes, including a story mode, where players progress through levels with increasing difficulty, meeting different characters and unlocking new types of blocks and special abilities. "Monster Slider" also includes a competitive multiplayer mode, where players can go head-to-head or work cooperatively to clear the puzzles. Graphically, the game showcases colorful, vibrant visuals typical of mid-90s arcade-style games, with each monster block uniquely designed to have its own personality. Despite its limited distribution, "Monster Slider" is remembered fondly by fans of the genre for its engaging mechanics and charming aesthetic, making it a hidden gem in the Sega Saturn’s library.
