Monster Train Launches on Android: A Slay the Spire-Like Experience

Monster Train, a captivating roguelite deck-building game, has finally made its way to Android devices. Originally launched on PC in 2020, followed by console versions, and later iOS in 2022, this game has garnered attention for its unique gameplay mechanics and has been frequently compared to the popular Slay the Spire.

What Does Monster Train Bring to Android?

Set on a train destined for the icy depths of hell, your mission in Monster Train is to safeguard the last burning pyre from celestial invaders. What sets Monster Train apart is its innovative use of three vertical lanes, allowing you to manage battles across multiple fronts simultaneously, unlike the typical single battlefield found in most games.

As you progress, you can unlock an extensive collection of over 250 cards, spread across five distinct monster clans, each with its own unique playstyle. The game encourages strategic depth by allowing you to combine two clans in a single run. Each clan also features ten levels of upgrades, enhancing your cards as you play them more frequently. Champions, the game's most valuable units, can be upgraded multiple times, making them pivotal to your strategy.

The Android version of Monster Train includes all the latest updates, such as Wild Mutations and Friends & Foes. Wild Mutations introduces 35 new mutators and additional difficulty settings, while Friends & Foes brings new champions, bosses, cards, and artifacts into the mix. Additionally, The Last Divinity DLC enriches the game with new content, including the Wurmkin clan, unlockable after reaching Covenant level 1. This DLC also introduces the Pact Shards mechanic and the formidable boss, 'The Last Divinity,' enhancing replayability.

Will You Try It Out?

Monster Train on Android is fully playable offline, including in airplane mode, and is available for purchase at $10. While in-app purchases exist, they primarily relate to unlocking the full game. Once purchased through your Google account, your progress is seamlessly transferable across devices, thanks to cloud save support. However, keep in mind that there's no controller support available. You can find Monster Train on the Google Play Store and dive into this engaging experience.
