Overview[[edit] | [edit source]]
The video game takes pace between COMIC: Monster Hunt - The Beginning and COMIC: Monster Hunt - The Ending. The player plays Rani Chandra and Clyde Langer who try to find the aliens that were uploaded by the Krulius from his data-pods onto the internet. Rani Chandra and Clyde Langer also appear in small video messages during the game and give the player clues about where to find the missing aliens.
The goal was to find monsters on different BBC Websites. After a user had found a monster he got a reward. The rewards were videos, a quiz, paper games, a screensaver, a wallpaper and the two parts of the Monster Hunt comic. The user could only get the complete comic if he had found the last monster, the Krulius.
Next to the rewards the user also archieved a new rank, once he or she had found a monster. The first rank "Bane Beginner" was archieved when a user found Star Poet, the last rank "SJA Sidekick" could be archieved when a user found the Krulius.
The monsters the users had to find were: Star Poet, the Slitheen, the Judoon, Androvax, Eve, the Sontarans, the Graske, the Trickster, Uvlavad Kudlak, Mona Lisa, the Bane and the Krulius.
