What is Cassette Beasts?

An open-world, turn-based creature-collecting RPG set on New Wirral, an island where people use cassette tapes to take monster forms. You record creatures, transform for party battles, fuse any two forms, and use monster abilities to explore, solve puzzles, and find dungeons while searching for a way home. Local co-op covers exploration and combat; online play supports trading, 1v1 battles, and Rogue Fusion encounters.

Some players with AMD graphics report severe visual glitches and crashes.
