Monsters, Inc.

200255/100
Platform

Comedy

The 2002 platformer translates Pixar's monster world into a series of brightly colored levels, each built around the central mechanic of collecting doors. Players, as Sully and Mike, must navigate environments, solving simple puzzles and battling enemies to gather door pieces. While the gameplay loop is straightforward, the game's charming presentation and faithful recreation of the film's key moments provide a nostalgic, comforting experience.

About Monsters, Inc.

View Game Details
Boo has returned to Monstropolis and it is your job as Sulley (or Sulley and Mike in the GBC version) to get her back home. However, to make things difficult, Randal has destroyed her door. Avoid Randall and the CDA (Child Detection Agency) as well as other dangers as you try getting Boo home. This platform scroller will have you trying to find out where you have been as you make your way through multiple doorways, up and down ladders, and more. Pick up items along the way as you jump and dodge enemies, use your roar attack, push items, sneak, and more.
