Background

Just Add Monsters was founded in March 2000 by former Sony Interactive Entertainment employees Mike Ball, Nina Kristensen and Tameem Antonaides. The Cambridge, UK-based studio was acquired by Argonaut Software in October 2000, but after their bankruptcy and subsequent closure in 2004, the studio went through a management buyout and was renamed to Ninja Theory.

Logo (February 24-May 29, 2003)

Visuals: On a white backdrop, there is a group of lavender-coloured, crudely drawn human figures excitedly hop around, with two purple shapes in the middle. A grey, blobby monster with horns holding a pitchfork jumps out of one of the shapes as the people run away in fear. The monster runs right and the text shrinks to reveal the stacked name "JUST ADD MONSTERS". The monster flips and lands situated to the right of the name, casting a shadow. The byline "part of the Argonaut Games PLC Group." appears below. The monster looks at the name and blinks.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: A beatbox tune and sounds of the figures talking to begin, which stops and turns into screaming when the monster appears, the steps of the monster, a "glug" sound when the monster lands next to the logo, and a waterdrop sound as it blinks.

Availability: Seen only on Kung Fu Chaos on Xbox.
