Developed by Konami in 1992 for the NES, Monster in My Pocket is an action platformer based on the popular toyline. Players take control of miniature versions of classic monstersโeither the Vampire or the Monsterโand battle their way through massive, everyday environments like a suburban house and kitchen. The game features simultaneous two-player co-op, allowing both monsters to fight side-by-side against Warlock and his army.
How to play
The goal is to fight your way through six oversized stages to defeat Warlock and his henchmen. The controls for the browser emulator are mapped as follows:

Tips
- Your basic attack has a surprisingly long reach; use this to strike enemies safely before they can close the distance.
- Master the jump attack, as it is essential for knocking down flying enemies and hitting the weak points of taller bosses.
- In two-player mode, the camera will not scroll if one player falls behind. Coordinate your movement so neither player gets trapped at the edge of the screen.
