The spells are pretty simple. The blue creatures (water) has an ability that does more damage to orange (fire) creatures, who in turn deal most damage to green ones (grass) with their special attacks. Green ones then have a special attack that is mostly effective against blue creatures.\rSo it's basically rock paper scissors.\rGrey creatures (stone) has a special attack that deals equal amounts of damage to each creature type, but in turn they don't have any weakness against other types.\rThe effectiveness of the special attacks differ between monsters and is based on their "Fcs" (Focus) attribute."},{"author_name":"Dakota","author_uid":"10697","time":"Aug 27, 2012 @ 5:29pm","epoch":1346088240,"text":"Haha Great little game had a lot of fun playing it"},{"author_name":"bvanschooten","author_uid":"14520","time":"Aug 27, 2012 @ 5:40pm","epoch":1346088900,"text":"I am not much into turn based fighting games, but I like this one."},{"author_name":"Mach60KAS","author_uid":"5788","time":"Aug 27, 2012 @ 7:14pm","epoch":1346094540,"text":"The title screen was really funny, but raising strong enough mons is really quite difficult!"},{"author_name":"dalbinblue","author_uid":"13960","time":"Aug 27, 2012 @ 7:35pm","epoch":1346095800,"text":"Fairly decent game.
