A classic..or So I’m told?
I’ve never played the old monster rancher games but heard good things. Wasn’t sure how well this old game would run on IPhone but was pleasantly surprised. This is a Pokémon style game where you raise and battle monsters generated from your favorite songs. The game runs great and it’s a breath of fresh air to be playing a mobile game that isn’t littered with micro transactions. We’ll worth the buy.
Welcome back, Monster Rancher!
So glad to see it back in the west. I loved this game growing up, but have no idea how long my old PS1 disc will hold out. Now I can just play it anywhere! The online vs mode (even if the opponent is always AI) is wonderful, I love seeing the monsters everyone else has raised!
A Gem of a Monster Training Game
This is the PERFECT fit for a mobile game. Raising, training, and battling monsters where you can save anytime, create and combine monsters, and enjoy the process at your pace, anywhere. I’m so thankful they put this series on mobile and hope there will be more to come someday. Maybe even the recent Kaiju MR game?
Worth Every Penny
I played this as a kid on Playstation 1 console, only never could get half as far as I did on the mobile game (thanks internet). If you love Monster games, raising, collecting, etc then you will love this. In my experience, it was better the second time around and I hope they plan to rerelease the other Monster Rancher games too with the monster accessories and the underwater habitats etc., specifically, Monster Rancher 3. Or release a newer version where you can farm and collect more items with
Nostalgic, But Terrible Probability Teacher
It’s a fun game, but if you’re looking to use it to teach your kids probability, they’ll be thoroughly confused why 50% means you’ll hit one out of 10 times and why 10% on your opponents means they’ll hit 11 times out of 12.
Don’t think that’s unique to this port - when asking the internet if I were insane or if the probabilities really had nothing to do with what’s shown on screen, there are years and years of Reddit posts complaining about this “feature”.

Awesome game
Childhood Classic! Want a continuation of the Series in later console
Honestly, as much as I enjoyed Pokémon and Digimon growing up, I had so much love for Monster Rancher game franchise, I played this on PS1, and MR4 on PS2. The best monster raising game in my opinion. Makes me feels close with the monster, and the death factor made the experience more precious. As a kid, I didn’t know how to raise them right so they died too early. Thank you for re-releasing on mobile. Finally made it the S-rank and beat the champ. I hope to see a continuation of the series in l
Songs
Isnt there a way it could just read what songs i have downloaded or even the song off youtube? Also, it doesnt know even 5% of my music which is crazy. Also, isnt there a way to give it the Monster Rancher 2 Advance graphics instead? Those were 1,000,000x better
Great port! Brings back fond memories.
I LOVED this game when I was younger. To be able to play this game again (and on my iPad) is wonderful! Now they just need to port Monster Rancher Card Battle 2 to make this nostalgia trip complete :)
Nostalgia & A Great Premise
I love the MR series. This was a lot of fun but it wore out pretty quickly and left me missing Monster Rancher 3 & 4. Hopefully those two get ported next because they have a ton more depth and encourage playing longer
Stop
I am playing this game and get phone call
Game stopped. Iphone X version
Nostalgia for a 90s kid
This was my first PlayStation game as a child and it back a lot of memories and is faithful to the original, only issue I’ve had is some CD freeze the game when they try to unlock a monster
Good game bad glitch
Every time I get a phone call the game freezes and I have to restart losing any progress prior to save. Fix it. Using an iPhone 12.
