Chris Buffa (Modojo): Crescent Moon Games did a fine job with Paper Monsters. The LittleBigPlanet influence is obvious, but serves more as a sincere form of flattery in what is yet another fine platform adventure for iPhone and iPad.
Pocket Gamer: Paper Monsters Recut has a rather unusual history. It's a mobile port of a console port of mobile game.
Carl Williams writes, "Retro gamers are usually left out of the fun when it comes to newer platforms, most companies don’t see any value in catering to this niche market. In this new article, Retro Gaming Magazine will take a look at a collection of games that cater to a different area of retro gaming. Starting the festivities off is the “action” category which encompasses titles such as Sonic, Mario and more. Devices with physical buttons are obviously the choice of play with these games."
Publisher Crescent Moon Games has stated they did not authorize the sale of Paper Monsters on Steam and that no one should purchase it. According to the game's page, the publisher is listed as Strategy First instead of Crescent Moon Games.
