The creature collection genre has been rapidly changing and evolving, as players look for a way to advance beyond Nintendo’s only-present Pokémon franchise. Whether it’s PocketPair’s Palworld or a slew of other creature collectors looking to find new spins, it’s undeniable that the industry is currently growing, and creature collectors are back in style.
Crazy Goat Games is proud to announce their latest take on this, as the team takes on the challenge to unite creature collecting with city building. While it might sound bizarre on paper, Tamer Town shows promise to grow the genre into a previously unexplored field, giving players the opportunity to partake in city-building and –defending.
The monsters in this game are called Mokitons, and with over 130 ones to unlock, each featuring its own distinct personality, elemental trait, and even evolution paths, you’ll be looking to build your thriving city around these conditions. From arenas for spectators to join in on the fun to environments to ensure habitability, you’ll want to keep Mokitons and trainers in mind.
Building your town-soon-to-be-sprawling-city is just the first step in Tamer Town, as you’ll need to push beyond the border, explore new biomes, and complete objectives and find new unexplored zones. Assemble a team, prepare them for exploration, and face the unexpected with surprises and secrets whilst on the lookout for resources and monsters.
Grow your city reputation, allure strong tamers, and raise your city’s prestige. Your long journey will include making profits for your growing city and optimising building layouts — happy Mokitons means harder workers, better defenders, and stronger members to fight for your cause.
When you’ve become the best, you’ll be able to challenge other cities and partake in intercity leagues — prove your tamers and Mokitons are the strongest by heading out to partake and take the trophy… or fail, and try again next time. Will you become the most reputable, well-known city in this Mokiton-filled world?
Tamer Townis set to launch on Windows PC via Steam’s Early Access in Q2 2026, with a console launch for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and the Nintendo Switch for Q1 2027.
