A boy named Jin discovers his Uncle Nabu using magic to spread chaos across the kingdom, turning everyone, including his brother Zeke, into animals. While trying to stop Nabu, Jin gets turned into a pig. Learning from the king's court magician, Mysticat, about a way to return everyone to normal, Jin goes on a quest to recover five animal orbs from across the kingdom. Upon doing so, however, Mysticat takes the orbs from Jin and uses them to open the gateway to the Dark Realm for his master Lord Xaros, who had been manipulating Nabu to do his bidding. Venturing into the Dark Realm, Jin confronts Xaros and, with the help of his friends and the spirits of past Wonder Boys, manages to defeat him, restoring the kingdom to normal.

The first game in a long while to truly make me feel like a kid again, Monster Boy and the Cursed Kingdom is one I could've easily rented on a Friday night in the 90s and played all weekend long until it was time for school Monday morning, stopping only for a wink of sleep and to occasionally answer the call of nature—or to begrudgingly respond to Mom yelling that it's time to eat. An ordinary day in Monster World Kingdom turns extraordinary after your seemingly drunk uncle is seen flying around transforming people into animals. It's up to you, Jin aka Monster Boy, to follow his trail, figure out what's come over him and save the kingdom's citizens from looking like a bunch of fancy animal crackers for the rest of their lives. The plot isn't the game's strong suit and is something you'll need to accept upfront as a simple device to give small purpose to your travels; world design and g
Hello friends, Since i beat this game, and got all achievements, i will write the review for it now. First off, this is a wonder boy spirited successor game, as described by one of the developers of it. The storyline is quite funny and cute. The gameplay is a metroidvania, so expect to walk over the same maps over and over again to find all the "secret items". The game also have cute graphics with anthromorphic looking people in it. Anyways, here is my pro/cons: PROS: -Fun storyline. -cute graphics. -Metroidvania related hunting for items. CONS: -There are bugs, mostly minor one, but when your collecting things, do not trust the map showing the correct things being collected. The map is one of the bugs, but only on a couple things. I already reported this particular bug to the developers. This bug can make it possible to miss achievements since alot of the achievements have to do wi
Monster Boy And The Cursed Kingdom is a colorful arcade platformer game, a spiritual successor of a classic Wonder Boy in Monster World series. Now it’s back with an eye-candy colorful graphics and with a brand new adventure. Pros: + Absolutely amazing colorful presentation with a huge amount of detailed locations and cute characters + Satisfying gameplay + Gorgeous soundtrack + Huge greatly designed map filled with secrets + Memorable mechanics with character transformations + Smart puzzles + Reasonable difficulty + Good variety of different items, weapons, and armor to use at the right place and the right time + Lots of content: more than 15 hours of pure gameplay Cons: - A poor and absolutely unremarkable story Sometimes I ask myself: why do I keep playing all these platformer games with metroidvania mechanics? They are definitely not my favorite and I can’t say that I
Review by Gaming Masterpieces - The greatest games of all time on Steam. Is this game a masterpiece? Yes, absolutely. It plays in a similar league than Hollow Kinght, Shovel Knight or Dead Cells, although it is a platforming adventure in its own right. A fantastic reimagination of the classic Wonderboy series, it captures the essence of those old games and brings it into todays gaming world. Super Monsterboy will take you right back to the old Sega MegaDrive days. You feel like a kid again when you see the colorful graphics, the cute monsters (it really hurts to hit them) and listen to the catchy soundtrack. Only when you start an old Mega Drive game on a screen directly beside it you'll notice that Monster Boy runs in Full HD, with 100 Hz, 5.1 sound and offers cloud saves... The story is fun, but nothing special. Your (usually harmless) uncle is completely drunk & acts crazy, flyin
Rating: ★★★★☆ (Great platformer that's both fresh and nostalgic at the same time) ============ Review: Monster Boy and the Cursed Kingdom is essentially a new Wonder Boy game. Now if you don't know Wonder Boy, that's an old game series from 80's and 90's. Wonder Boy: The Dragon's Trap (Found on Steam) is a remake of one of those old games. But basically what we have here is a completely new Wonder Boy game (not a remake), but it has music and references to the old ones for a dose of nostalgia. Anyway, it is a platformer game in the vein of the Metroidvania genre. ============ Graphically the game is simply beautiful - very nice 2D graphics and smooth animations. Everything from the player character, monsters, NPCs and terrain looks good. I very much prefer this look over the Wonder Boy Remake. The sounds are very similar as the original Wonder Boy's - they just work. And for ol
Video Review https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MdwCr6vfMIg Written Review Monster Boy is a metroidvania that allows you to transform into many different forms. The game at its core, is an action platformer. You'll have a bunch of jumping and climbing to do, but at the same time you'll have to fight off multiple enemies. You play as Jin, a blue-haired anime boy, on a quest to free his cursed kingdom. You have a sword, and can attack in pretty much any direction. Your shield will allow you to deflect projectiles. You also get different gear, that when equipped can have different effects. Some more passive, while others are more active, like the heavy boots that make you sink in water. I found the combat to be really satisfying, because you have a lot to play around with, including a stomp that can stun enemies nearby, or if you hit them directly with it, it inflicts a lot of damage an
