Monster Galaxy was a social role-playing video game developed by Gaia Online. It was released around November 2010 as a Flash-based Facebook social game and later in 2012, it had made into mobile adaptations on Android and iOS devices.
The game is inspired by the popular franchise like Pokémon, Monster Hunter, and various other creature-catching series. The creatures in the game--named Mogas--are technically based on Gaia World, seen from various item releases such as Chance Items, Evolving Items, and creatures original to the game. Their strengths and weaknesses are determined by astrological signs, which act similarly to elemental types. There are 11 Moga creatures for most zodiac signs, such as Aries, Taurus and Capricorn.
Somewhere in November 2021, Gaia Online is developing a return of Monster Galaxy with their NFT blockchain project, MoGa P2E.

What is a Moga?[]
Moga are one of the most essential factors of Monster Galaxy as their capture is the premise of the game, the name of the species is derived from the first two letters of the games title: 'Mo' and 'Ga'. These are creatures that have special abilities and appearances. For example this sheep-like creature named Mimples.
Mimples were born out of a dream, one so powerful and vivid that they found themselves springing to life. Mimples love eating dandelions and getting their heads scratched. Their fur is as soft as a cloud, but hides a fiery secret. Anger a Mimple and it's likely to leave you singed. |
Monster Galaxy return and NFT project[]
In November 2021, Gaia Online has entered into "NFT" universe with their new NFT project based on Monster Galaxy they are working on. The game have been released on 31 October 2022. Unfortunately due to the lack supporting of player, the game have been ceased off at 25 April 2024
