Welcome to Monster Mashup Month, a theme month of features on One More Catch running throughout November.

Besides being a fun bit of alliteration, it's an opportunity for the site to do two things: cover smaller, interesting games from the wider world of creature collecting, and get more voices writing for the site.

Each Wednesday in November, a different writer will be covering games taking the creature-collecting genre in experimental new directions. The roster of writers includes:

You'll need to be a paying supporter of One More Catch to read each piece, and the good news is there's a site sale to celebrate!

Until the end of November, a month's subscription will be half price - meaning you can read all four features for just £2 / ~$2.50, as well as comment on articles and get access to the back catalogue of supporter-only pieces.

For transparency, ~250 new signups at that price is needed for this theme month to break even. So if you want to read four brilliant pieces, and encourage future experiments involving freelance contributors and coverage around smaller games in the creature collecting / taming / discovering genre, then please consider signing up. Hopefully you'll discover a new favourite writer and game along the way!

And with that out of the way, the first piece - from Christian Donlan, looking at creature-scanning game Emuurom - is now available to read. Expect further Monster Mashup Month features to be on the site and in your inbox over the coming Wednesdays!

Emuurom feels like a genuine biosphere waiting to be explored
Scan for the best.
