What is Cassette Beasts?

Cassette Beasts is developed by Bytten Studio and published by Raw Fury. This quirky game masterfully blends retro-inspired aesthetics with modern gameplay mechanics. Imagine Pokémon but with a twist—here, you’re collecting fantastical creatures and using cassette tapes to tape together their abilities. The game’s standout feature is the rogue fusion system, which lets you combine monsters for some epic abilities.


The game's deep battle system relies heavily on elemental chemistry, where you can mix and match elements to apply buffs, debuffs, or even change your opponent's elemental type. Add in a colorful cast of human companions, and you’re set for a fun and adventurous time in New Wirral.


The Battle System

In Cassette Beasts, battles are turn-based. Each beast you collect has unique abilities and strengths. You’ll need to strategically choose moves for your beasts while considering environmental factors, like water or unstable terrain. Winning battles earns you experience points and items to power up your monsters. Plus, you can fuse two beasts to create an even more powerful hybrid.


Exploration

New Wirral is a sprawling, open world filled with diverse environments, from lush forests to bustling cities. Each area teems with unique creatures and challenges, making exploration both rewarding and fun. The game’s turn-based combat and customizable character abilities add even more depth to this engaging RPG.


Using Monster Abilities

One exciting aspect of the game is the ability to use monster abilities in human form. You’ll need these skills to traverse the island, solve puzzles, and find hidden dungeons. Imagine gliding, swimming, climbing, or even turning invisible to navigate the expansive world of New Wirral.


Fusing Monster Forms

The fusion system is another highlight. By fusing monster forms, you can create unique and fully animated new fusion forms. This isn’t just a visual treat; it’s a strategic tool that can give you the upper hand in battles. Plus, certain monster abilities can be employed when you're in human form, adding another layer of strategy.
