Monster Match

In Uncle Creepy's Monster Match, you are attempting to amass an army of monsters by collecting two matching monsters from each of the four sides of the game board - the first player to do this wins! And everyone else presumably has a lot of hungry monsters to feed. Will they turn on their captors? You bet!

2 to 6 players spin a paper spinner to move about the board and may claim a monster if they land on it. If you land on an already claimed monster, you must battle the owner for control by betting one of your own monsters against theirs- the highest spin wins them both! As a side option, players may also offer to trade monsters to other players during their turn.

This is one of five somewhat tongue-in-cheek games from Warren magazines (publishers of Creepy, Eerie, Vampirella and others) featuring rad 70s monster artwork.

Monster Match was released in Creepy Magazine #56 (September 1973), Eerie Magazine #51 (September 1973), and the "Famous Monsters Game Book #1" magazine from June of 1982 as "cut out and play editions", as well as available separately in a bundle as "Warren Monster Madness" games by mail order (#2661 for $2.50). The bundle included Capture, Monster Match, Creepy-Crawley Castle (aka Creepy Castle), Werewolf! and Monster's Castle.
