Creature-collecting roguelike deckbuilder Montabi is getting its first physical release on Nintendo Switch 2. Czech indie publisher Nejcraft is partnering with developer Mankibo and digital publisher Akupara Games to bring the game to the platform on a physical cartridge.
In Montabi, players build a team of creatures, train and evolve them, and use their unique cards and abilities in tactical turn-based battles. The game features a 3×3 battle grid, where positioning and card combinations play an important role in combat.
Players can choose from 22 starter Montabi, each with its own evolutionary line and deck. More than 500 cards are available to discover, alongside equipment and charms that allow players to customise their strategies.
Trainers also have distinct playstyles, focusing on close-range combat, positioning or supporting their creatures. However, if a trainer is knocked out during a run, the run ends. Players can also visit cafés to recover health between battles.
Physical pre-orders of Montabi are available now through the Nejcraft Store.
