Monster Sanctuary - Tips and QOL Info

You can "donate" extra eggs and monsters at the Keepers Stronghold by talking to the blue person in the screenshot. This process gives smaller rewards upon donation, and larger rewards on getting a certain threshold of army strength donated. Donation is also great to keep your monster inventory clean if you don't need extra copies of common monsters.

Stores will sell better items the higher your Keeper's rank is.

The Infinite Arena (also found in the Keeper's Stronghold in the fuchsia-colored) gives reward boxes, which contain items, potions and eggs! This is a great place to "farm" experience and some harder-to-find items.

You can reorganize your skills by using a skill resetter (Note, the order is which you level your skills will reflect the order in which the menu shows you during battle). Since this is of course a "strange thing", the devs have stated that they intend to make skill reorganization a feature in the future. This is just a "workaround" for now.

Monsters respawn after you've done three battles. Repawn is NOT based on a time period or walking around.

There is a name-changer NPC standing in the same area as the Evolution Tree. So if you change you mind on a name, no worries, you can always change it.

If you ever make a mistake and want to quickly "undo it", note that the game only saves in two instances: 1. When you go to the menu and select "save and quit" or 2. When you "change an exploration screen". When changing screens, you will notice in the bottom corner of the screen "autosaving". As long as you don't trigger either of these "save conditions" you can press "Alt - F4" on your keyboard to fully-close the game without saving. BE WARNED: be very careful with this so as to only quit without saving when you want to. Thankfully, the game auto-saves so often, that even if you end up in a situation where you "accidentally" closed the game without saving, you'll likely lose only a few minutes of playtime.

In options you can change the combat speed up to 2x, this will save a good amount of time if you are grinding or just enjoy a faster pace!

Food gives a semi-permanent buff. Each monster may have up to 3 food-bonuses active at a time. For every new food given to a monster, the oldest food bonus will be removed and the new one gets placed at the beginning of the food list. Since you will find better quality food as you progress in the game, if you're going to feed your monster (for example) "two lesser bonus foods and one higher bonus one", it is best to use the weaker food first, then the stronger
