GC: "The latest DS offering from fan-favorite publisher Atlus, Master of the Monster Lair is another unconventional game which defies easy genre classification-something I can always appreciate. However, though it earns points for coloring outside the lines, it doesn't have enough variety in the formula to push it into must-play status. It's definitely quirky and interesting, but repetition and an emphasis on grinding for money and items dampen the appeal." -
