Tiny Monster Haven Releases

BRUSSELS – Aug. 11, in the year of our Lord 2026 – Digging Dino's Tiny Monster Haven, an adorable creature collector that runs on the desktop, is now available on Steam. In this delightful indie title, you become the caretaker of more than 50 unique monsters, try your hand at farming and cooking – and even take part in turn-based battles and mini-games.

Tiny Monster Haven is also being featured in a bundle with Valorware's Boil Cabbage Make Soup, which is launching tomorrow (August 12).

Monsters at Work
You have been entrusted with your very own "Monster Haven”! Make your monsters strong with special crops and meals, and eventually they start to actively help out … even while you're away. Each monster can contribute in different ways: Some water and pollinate your crops, while others help out with the harvest. Certain monsters even cook meals for your team – adding a layer of optimization and light automation to the game.

Wild monsters regularly offer short battles or mini-games – rewarding you with Monster Essence. This special resource is used to power up your monsters by teaching them new moves and evolving them – and it also lets you unlock new monster eggs for your Haven. Once your monsters grow strong enough, you can take them on a small RPG-style adventure across various towns and routes – challenging NPCs and Elemental Gurus with the goal of becoming the grand tournament champion!

Tiny Monster Haven: It's a Vibe
Of course, there are also plenty of opportunities to chill and unwind. You can spend your earnings on a variety of pretty decorations and useful items in the merchant shop. From vibrant trees and flowers to exquisite fountains, there are many ways to express your inner landscape designer. As you progress through the mini-campaign, more decorations become available – rewarding the time and effort spent building up your monster team.

"I have always been a huge fan of the old Tiny Chao Garden mini-games in Sonic Advance," says Lodeman, solo developer of Tiny Monster Haven. "After discovering Rusty’s Retirement, I thought it would be really cool to combine the idea of a monster-taming game with elements of Tiny Chao – all while the game sits at the bottom of your screen. I was already working on a monster-taming RPG, and I realized that this would be a great mix of different gameplay mechanics – all of which I was passionate about. Thus, Tiny Monster Haven was born.”
