You've escaped from your cell! But the wizards guarding this dungeon prison are very powerful. To have any chance of escape, you MUST free your fellow monsters to fight along side you. Will your monster revolution succeed? It's up to you and those who choose to follow...
Monster Revolution is a 2D action dungeon crawler, with a unique twist: you can acquire followers who take your indirect commands.
