Update 4/12/12 ~ Inferno Comes to Kongregate!
Hello Kongregate!
Backyard Monsters would like to announce these new updates that you will be seeing in the game this week!
Inferno is here! Inferno is here! A strange structure may have appeared outside of your yard’s boundaries.

If you survive, you will attain your own Inferno yard and the ability to breed your own horde of Inferno monsters!
