Monster Lab

Monster Lab is a video game for the Wii, PlayStation 2 and Nintendo DS that was developed by Backbone Entertainment and published by Eidos. Debuting at the 2006 Comic-Con International convention in comic book form as Mad Science Alliance, the game was described as "Pokémon meets Tim Burton". The player controls a scientist and is helped by three professors to build his own humanoid monster. There are 150 parts to build a monster (which affect the monster's strengths and weaknesses), and 300 items. The Wii version featured Wi-Fi online modes until the service was discontinued.
