In the past monster hunters were needed to control the outbreak of certain monsters in the area or ones that cause direct danger to our local communities, but these needs have decreased and have no longer been an issue for a very long time. Instead, there has been a recent increase of rogue monster hunters running around in the wildlands, slaying them for no reason other than for sport. It is my job to save these innocent monsters, bring them back to health, and reunite them with their packs. It requires luck. It requires traps constructed from what nature can provide to subdue the monsters for treatment. It’s a dangerous job, but it needs to be done.

Monster Healer Solo IIDX is a print-and-play dice game that has you doing your best to subdue a hurt monster so you can perform your doctorly duties to save it.  Two monsters included in this version!

Basic Gameplay

You roll your trap dice and assign them to the traps required to stop the monster. When the monster takes its action, it may do damage to you (saving monsters is a tough business) or even shake off the traps.

I quite enjoyed this game!  I really liked the spin on healing monsters instead of fighting them, and the accessible, quick gameplay.

Do you allow third-party expansions for this or any of your games?

Howdy! For sure. Would love to see what y'all come up with. Make sure to let me know so I can check it out too.
