Screenshot Bad humans have invaded the peaceful monster forest!
Begin your adventure as a brave Slime and bring peace to the monster forest.

- Do not let any human survive: defeat all humans and grind their belongings.

- Upgrade your Slime infinitely: Gear up, unlock mighty skills, and become the most fearful creature.

- Time for vengeance: Be a bad Slime and raid on human villages, loot wagons full of gold, and make them your loyal minions.

- Time for mining: Mine rocks and find valuable treasures.

- Collect companions: Fight with a egg-throwing chicken, or a snail companion to slow down the enemies. And of course, we have a cat.

- Idle Reward: Collect idle gold and items, even when offline. Come back when you want to slack off, or during your short toilet break. You won't miss anything.
