Disc Creatures Is A New Retro Monster-Collecting Game, Out In October!

There are a bunch of beautiful Pokemon-esque games in the market right now. We can mention some of them like Temtem or Monster Sanctuary, which will please every demanding eye.

However, if you're desperately finding a game with retro vibes, which brings back the good-old Pokemon-collecting experience, check Disc Creatures out. This one-man project is coming to PC soon, and you can watch the announcement trailer of the game below:

The world of Disc Creatures

Taking the settings of a fictional fantasy world, Disc Creatures put you into the shoes of an unknown Disc Ranger (DiscR for short). The inhabitants in this land are not only human but also a wide range of wild creatures as well. Each of them has their distinctive personalities, abilities and their own concept of morality.

Living happily together, the DiscRs can use their CDs to 'tame' those creatures to help anyone in need. Even though you don't want to become the greatest Disc Ranger ever, you can still enjoy your adventure in this quaint landscape. On your way, you'll gradually reveal the mystery covering this land, and it's going to be darker and fearful than you've thought.
