Again, it's this attention to detail that really makes this game shine. The music in Monster Rancher is quite unique in its own way. The melodies that are played throughout the game are a mixture of old marching band themes, classical melodies and smooth sounding horn orchestration. All of the music is done with grand majestic overtones to give one the feeling of a medieval or fantasy like setting. The music flows nicely with the overall pace of the game and actually sounds outstanding when pumped through a surround receiver.
Sound effects are excellent and incredibly varied.
Each main character breed or type has its own sound and effects to accompany and distinguish it from the others. First we'll cover the Market since this is where you will need to start the game to create or obtain your first monster. In the Market screen you are presented with several options. You can go directly to the market and obtain one of the three basic Monster types to raise. These three monsters are free to obtain at any time, but the real fun is in making your own.
