During the latest Monster Tamer Direct, an event dedicated to the world of monster-taming games, indie developer Crazy Goat Games revealed its brand-new title: Path to Tamer Town. The game is set to launch in Early Access on PC (Steam) in Q1 2026, with a full release and console versions planned for Q3 2026.
The announcement came as something of a surprise. Crazy Goat Games is best known for city-building experiences like the horror-themed Worshippers of Cthulhu and the upcoming Tamer Town, a monster tamer that combines training creatures with managing a thriving settlement. With Path to Tamer Town, the studio is branching out into new territory, offering a roguelite adventure built around procedurally generated cities, routes, and encounters.
What is Tamer Town?
Tamer Town emphasizes city-building alongside monster taming, blending community management with classic creature-bonding mechanics.
Players can:
- Collect, train, evolve, and bond with 130+ Mokitons, each with unique personalities and traits.
- Build and manage a town where Mokitons serve as fighters, helpers, and neighbors.
- Explore new biomes, discover rare species, and unlock resources through expeditions.
- Compete in tactical battles and tournaments.
- Shape the city with zoning, decorations, and elemental balance.
