God is a Geek: 10 / 10 by Lyle Carr
Cassette Beasts is the best monster collecting game I've ever played, with sensational combat and a wonderful world to explore.
Metro GameCentral: 8 / 10
The best Pokémon clone by a significant margin and arguably a more enjoyable experience than the more recent 3D games, with some clever new ideas and fantastic visuals.
Shacknews: 9 / 10 by Donovan Erskine
Bytten Studio puts all of its creativity on display in Cassette Beasts. Not only does its sizeable roster of Monsters include some really fun and unique designs, but the thoughtful approach to combat and clever music element really set it apart from most Pokemon-likes. Although the characters weren’t as intriguing as I’d like in an RPG, just about everything else was enough to make up for it. Cassette Beasts is sure to be one of this year’s indie darlings.
