The Haarlem-based (The Netherlands) indie games publisher Iceberg Interactive and Tartu-based (Estonia) indie games developer Interactive Fate, are today very proud and glad to announce that their beat-em-up and bullet heaven game “Monster Run“, is now available for PC via Steam.

Developed by Interactive Fate, the creative force behind Circle Empires, and published by Iceberg Interactive, Monster Run lets you step into the paws of a fearsome protector, blending the thrill of beat‘em up chaos with roguelite elements. Will you rise to the challenge and defend your homeland from annihilation?

About Monster Run: Downfall of the Empire
In this dark fantasy beat’em up with roguelite elements, Monster Run thrusts you into the role of an enraged house-sized fire-breathing monster cat. After waking from a 100-year sleep and seeing how the new greedy human empire ravages your forests and lands, you’ve decided to personally obliterate this empire, demolish its castles, kings, armies comprised of hundreds of soldiers, and every other last piece of imperial might. Your path of destruction spans over 30 missions in 21 locations, all within an evolving single-player campaign map.

As you conquer each mission, you’ll unlock new supernatural abilities, choosing from over 100 upgrades. Harness 11+ unique attacks, from panic-inducing roars to shooting electricity from your paws—or even summoning a shower of blades to rain down and destroy your enemies.

Monster Run: Downfall of the Empire is now available on Steam. Stay informed about Monster Run’s development journey and announcements by visiting the official Steam store page.
