Monster Strike for Nintendo 3DS
About Monster Strike for Nintendo 3DS
Monster Strike began as a huge mobile hit in Japan, and this handheld edition rebuilds it as a full adventure with its own story and characters. The idea is wonderfully simple. Your team of monsters sits on a battlefield like marbles, and you pull back and flick one across the screen, bouncing it off walls and enemies. Every bounce can trigger a friendly monster's bump combo, filling the screen with attacks and effects. A cast of young heroes and a cheerful guide monster give the battles a proper story to travel through.
Combat mixes aim, angles and team building. A monster that strikes an ally on its path triggers that ally's special bump attack, so planning a shot means thinking several bounces ahead. Strike shots unleash each monster's signature move when when their turn counter runs down, and saving one for a boss can decide a whole stage. Collecting and evolving monsters between battles builds the team, with elements and abilities that suit different enemies.

Things are different now for buyers. The Nintendo eShop for Nintendo 3DS closed in March 2023, and new digital purchases are no longer possible. The honest route today is a physical cartridge from a retailer or a good second hand shop. The handheld edition was a Japanese retail release, so the cartridge to look for is an import, and its menus and story are presented in Japanese. Owners who bought the game digitally before the closure can still access their purchased games.
Pull back, aim carefully and let the bounces do the damage.
