Monster Mind
Here's a puzzle game I made where you can interact and solve puzzles with Pokemon. There's a lot of Pokemon to meet and different things to try, so take your time and have fun with it!
This game is fun if you explore it and find some of the surprises for yourself. But there are also some things you might not understand. Be cautious if you choose to collaborate with other players in the comments below; you might find spoilers which make your experience less enjoyable. Happy puzzling~
Your game should save after every level, but this save file could be lost if your temporary files get deleted. If you want to make sure you don't lose your progress, I have included a password feature. On the Options screen on the main menu, you can view your name and password. When starting a new game, you can tell Grovyle your name and password to continue your progress. All of the Pokemon you've met will remember you, and you will retain any items you have purchased.

Im so glad i found a good game and the creator isnt like last active 5 years ago
Is there any Pregnancy
no
I really love this game, especially for its dialogues, I played it a few years ago and it was really nice to know that there is now a mobile version, thanks for developing this masterpiece.
Wow, that's great! Honestly you can thank the Monster Mind community for the mobile port, specifically KavuKamari who put a lot of work into getting it up and running. I can't believe how much love there is for the game after all this time.
I worked so hard on the game, but I never expected the kind of community it generated, it's just crazy!! I'm so humbled by everyone who plays and enjoys my game 8 years later, yourself included. Thanks so much 🥰
Genuinely one of the best games I've played in a while, especially for free! Naughty bits or not, this game is honestly amazing, I haven't encountered a single bug, and the art is just eye candy. Thanks, argonvile!
Wow that's amazing, I'm glad the game runs so smoothly for you! 😀 Thanks for the kind words, it makes me feel really nice to know someone else out there is enjoying my game.
this is a very well made and robust game, and the scenes with the Pokémon are so hot. The banter is well written, and there's so much to do and every character feels distinctly unique! I’m just so bad at playing it! The really intense hint restrictions are such a buzz kill. I feel like if I saw an actual problem solved for four peg something would click. But it just feels like I’m tugging at random things, and I can’t even remember the last solution that worked. This has left me feeling so bad, man.
I’m so so so confused by this game’s logic. Are we trying to find a password that matches these different overlapping conditions? Or is each condition a different hint towards the password? I don’t know why, but this makes zero sense, and none of the tutorials or tools help figure out the logic of what’s going.
(Edit: flipped my praise to the top, because the game is really good, well made, and robust! I just struggled with it)
> Are we trying to find a password that matches these different overlapping conditions? Or is each condition a different hint towards the password? I don’t know why, but this makes zero sense, and none of the tutorials or tools help figure out the logic of what’s going.
Grovyle explains this in detail in the tutorial! In her words, "The goal is to drop the correct colored bugs in this box up here! Do that and you complete the puzzle. Each of these other rows is a clue-- an incorrect guess which most definitely will NOT complete the puzzle."
> I feel like if I saw an actual problem solved for four peg something would click.If you're familiar with Wordle, it works just like Wordle, if someone else made all the guesses and you just had to to put in the answer.
There are videos on youtube of people solving puzzles! And there's a discord linked where you can ask questions.
Thanks for this. I know I'm personally struggling with this, but this game is INCREDIBLE and it's so high quality in pretty much every aspect.
The bit that didn't click is that overflows don't count. So:
🔴🔵🔴🔴 (1 heart)
Is correctly solved by
⚫🔵🔵⚫
cause the blue is solved, and the second blue doesn't matter because the "1 heart" condition is solved, and technically without a second blue there's no misplacement (e.g. a dot).
The whole time I was trying to find solutions that would only have 1 blue, or 1 red, to match the "1 heart" suggestion, which painted me into an impossible corner for most challenges. there's still bits I don't quite get, but I'm now like... Rank 30? And getting through this!
Also I went to tip for the game but I can't?? This is such a huge and cool thing to give away for free. Again, I struggled, but really amazing game.
That's amazing, rank 30, that's really good! I think the Pokemon in the game will talk about your rank sometimes, and compare it to their own. Grovyle is very clever but I think their rank is right around there too!
https://ko-fi.com/argonvile
The game is not monetized in any way (i think tipping would count) because I don't want to get in trouble. But if you want to donate, I have a ko-fi! That's incredibly generous of you but honestly, it's enough thanks just to know that someone out there is still enjoying this cool game i made 😀 congratulations on figuring out the secret behind the hearts and dots too, those things can be confusing on some of the puzzlesI don’t know if I’m dumb or my browser just sucks but I’m stuck on the first puzzle I’m able to put the red bug in the thing but once I get to the second clue and I need to remove a bug I can’t do anything and I’m basically stuck. Is their a work around on this
sorry, i'm not sure! the phrase "once i get to the second clue and need to remove a bug" makes me think you're massively misunderstanding how the puzzles work, and maybe trying to remove puzzles from the clues or something like that
okay thanks for the help but I don’t know how to remove the puzzle I may just be very bad at reading but is there like a control list so I know exactly what to do? I’m probably just being very dumb sorry if I’m asking for too much
there are no controls in the game, all you can do is click!
almost there to 100%, and i can still say that this is one of the best experiences that i've had. all the characters dialogue was funny and (from what i can tell) in character. thanks argonvile
edit: i've bought all the items in the shop and yet i don't see anything else to really do to progress. is it alright if i can have a hint on what to do next?
You need to talk to Grimer and use one of your sex toys on them! You will lose the item, but a new item will eventually show up in the shop after Grimer eats one
you can trust abra!!
when grovyle asks you for your password, you type your password! you don't need to enter it with your name. you just tell them "we've met before" and then they ask you for your password
there is an onscreen keyboard for the password! you can type in numbers like "4" and "8" it is not a problem. you cannot type spaces.
thank you i managed to figure this out but thanks for the help
Hi there! I'd like to know if there's a version or a way to turn off dialogue! I'm running a DnD campaign where the most common board game is a race of monster mind 4pegs but it'd be great for me if I could just not stream all the naughty bits of the game XD
Btw love this game, been playing for years now, this puzzle is amazing <3
There is an NSFW toggle in the settings menu -- it keeps the dialogue but gets rid of the naughty stuff! You can always skip the dialogue too with the skip button.
broo i have spent like over 100k on this box am getting scammed
;-;
heracross, you big scammer!!
This may be because I'm a dumbass but I dead ass can't get past the first one I think the browsers bugged or something it instructs me to place 2 bugs instead of 3 and then it doesn't work when I do three
That's so strange, I'm not sure what could be going wrong!
not sure if its just me but when i try to run the game it freezes as soon as a touch anything
Oh no, I'm sorry!
Neat knowing this stills up, i wanted to leave the idea to add a fleshlight but im too late and you guys are occupied with more things, you do what you do best.
Thank you! Yeah I'd love to add more animations and sex toys but it all just takes so much time.
can u use anal beeds for grovyle?
No, Grovyle doesn't like that.
then why does it show up as a option
just beat the game. one of the best experiences i've ever played. gonna try and get 100% next![]()

That's amazing, congratulations! I'm glad you had a good time. Good luck on 100%, let us know if you get stuck!
I don't know the rules...
Grovyle starts the game with a tutorial explaining the rule. If you still need help, you can ask for hints and they'll try to explain your mistakes!
I was having fun until Abra called me the r-word during the 5-peg tutorial... I get that she's supposed to be an ass, but there's a difference between mild insults and actual slurs.
I really hope this is just a misunderstanding of how offensive that word is, and that it'll be removed from the game.
Or you could grow a pair and realize you are playing a game for adults.
It can be hard to understand how hurtful the use of slurs can be if you've never been part of a minority group that's often dehumanized by such language, but I hope you can eventually learn how to empathize with people whose life situation is different from yours.
Or if you are part of a minority group but haven't been harassed with slurs, I don't wish for you to become the target of such insults, but I hope you can come to understand why certain people might be more sensitive to such language than you are.
I located the dialog in question and I think you're right. Abra didn't use the dialog as a slur, but the word should still be avoided in a game like this and I'm sorry it ruined your experience.
Edit: The newly released 1.10.6 corrects the offensive dialog.
Thank you for understanding, unlike the other commenter here.
just realized that it's called monster mind bc its like the game mastermind but with pokemon porn!! i love that game and this one!
Ha ha that's right, it's a very similar puzzle! But the strategy is completely different.
Master Mind is all about coming up with an optimal strategy to figure out an answer! But Monster Mind is strictly a deduct
I at first didn't even notice it was nsfw but still liked the game, came for the puzzle, stayed for the porn
Oh wow that's great! If you would rather play without the porn there is an NSFW toggle in the settings. ...But you'll miss out on some fun story bits!
After playing this game for a concerning amount of time, i feel the need to comment again and compliment your amazing writing argonvile! almost every character is written like a real believable being with their own emotions and memories. The dialogue in this game feels so natural, and the topics tend to get deep and relatable. Eventually i even began to enjoy the NSFW scenes not just for the porn value, but for the learning process of understanding the pokemon's personality and what makes them happy. The porn was charming but i always came back just to read, and learn more about your characters. (also im impressively fast with this one specific type of logic puzzle now lol) ((Thank you so much for the amazing game argon <3))
Wow congratulations, that's great you were able to connect with the Pokemon in such a meaningful way! And that's great you've honed your master mind skills as well... If anyone asks how you got so good, I guess you'll have to come up with a story! 😀
I'm glad you were so drawn to the characters and their stories, I didn't really design them with the idea of being "hot guys the player can bang" but more just 10 different people (well, pokemon!). ....You might not be sexually attracted to all of them or you might be annoyed or not get along with all of them! But they are just supposed to be "people" and I think that's a part of their charm.
Was pleasantly surprised to find some ace rep in the game! Smeargle is an adorable bean. 10/10, deserves all the headpats and praise. :)
you're right, it's sneaky but it's in there isn't it! thank you for being patient with smeargle 😀 magnezone is somewhere on the spectrum as well, although it may not be the same thing...?
I have a question: can you make that if we have a play time that those of the pokémon can evolve?
no, but if you want to take a crack at it the game is open source!
only one person has ever added a new pokemon to the game, and i think it took them about 6 months. so you would probably be looking at 5 years worth of work but if you are passionate i'm sure you can do it!
so a mod?
it is up to you!
do you know were is it?, i havent be able to find it
if you're looking for the mod where someone added a character to monster mind -- they posted it to the discord server
https://discord.gg/ycf6Jzu
here is the message link
https://ptb.discord.com/channels/441368427295145985/441387973754486795/135813357...
they recommend you back up your saves and passwords, but it should just work, and it does 99% of the time. i haven't tried it out, but other people say it worked!
my first puzzle game and i love it so so much i thought i wouldn't like it but the sex, but i love everything about it
wow thank you, i'm glad to hear so many people have warmed up to the puzzles and dialogue! these games are often just about the sex but i wanted to do something different and special
please update the game, the way you can interact with them is so ho
my god the minigames are overcomplicated and annoying. i absolutely have zero goddamn clue how the staircase one works, its so confusing and poorly explained. i thought i understood but then my opponent lands on the star step, and i assume that just means he rolls again - but i guess not, im the one who rolls and he magically has a chest? what? its also never once explained that the total of the rolls goes to both players. i dunno, the sex scenes are fun and the actual puzzles and minigames just get in the way of them, which is the number one ironic problem for these games - any actual gameplay just feels like an annoying obstacle for the thing you actually want to do.
Let me know if you have suggestions for how to improve the minigame explanations! Most people understand it better than you did! I'm sorry.
https://gitgud.io/argonvile/monster-mind/-/blob/main/source/TutorialDialog.hx#L1...
Rhydon explains how you move 1-4 spaces depending on the dice, explains how you each choose two dice and set them however you want, and explains how it's all about predicting what your opponent does! And then gives you two practice turns and explains everything that happens. I don't know how to explain it better than that! Maybe it's just hard to explain.
Hello i think i have this idea asked already but i am stupid... anyway i thought a VR version is a nice idea just imagine the possibilities i mean we can let them f us or f them and we can then use two hands like sandslash want us i think he was it idk haven't played it long but what i mean is that if we have the possibility to go VR we can explore the building and interact with them more and don't just have a forced place where we have to look so this means we can do two things at ones like squeeze there balls while stroking them and we could kiss them then and touch them more and because i know abra is a clever girl she can do it and then we can get more lore 😁 please make it happen i am begging you
The game is open source, so if you'd like to take a crack at implementing it with VR be my guest! I'd love to see what you come up with.
I am st upid like literally i can't code or anything like that and besides how do I know if I would do it right I mean there are new ways to please them and all so there would be new texts and all that so I can't really do it without going out and like making the personality of the pokémon wrong and besides I have an attention span of an fly
Hmm. I too have been thinking about somthing like this. Hypothetically, if someone were to do a VR version, would you help write?
Some dialog wouldn't make too much sense with the VR version
Problem is i absolutely can't code or anything like this while i would love to help i can't because learning is hard for me 😔
Wait... A vr version? THAT MEANS TWO HANDS! YES! AND PROBABLY A FULL BODY!
still don't know why there's blacks line at the side of my screen so i just got my old computer and it works now :)
TBH I was more here for the puzzles than the horny.
and as for the puzzles, its either really up, or REALLY DOWN. one moment I think I am the one, the next I'm on the brink of a mental breakdown, and others I'm threatening to kill Abra.
This game is still fun as hell though!
the horny is also a nice bonus i guess idkWhat difference does it make when you first choose your gender?
besides lore/plot?
Is it relevant to the lore?
well I mean Argon Vile has insinuated that the characters are canonically the sex that they start as if you pick that you don’t mind what sex they are,
and I haven’t gotten very far in the story myself,
but there’s definitely a deep story.
So far I'm loving the game, the puzzles are engaging even though they sometimes fly over my head. My only criticism would be to explain the 3 peg game a bit more clearly. Took me a while to actually understand what it entails, that and the dice rolling stair climbing game confuses me still even after 6 hours of playing.
Do you mean the 3 peg game, like the puzzles? Did you do the tutorial?
no, the stairs one
i just cant fathom how its happening that ill get the first clue, make a change and then fail the first clue. i hate to say it but its super frustrating that im not comprehending it, im not an idiot i swear ^^
Solving the puzzles should feel like a step-by-step process, like climbing a ladder or putting together a jigsaw puzzle! Not like randomly trying to guess someone's password.
Try Grovyle's introductory tutorial again, they explain how to figure out simple steps like "Oh, there has to be a blue," "And there can't be any reds," "There's at least one green too." You never have to make a wrong guess! Think things through.
it might just be me but ive spent an hour trying to understand these puzzles, even with the guide...... its so confusing yet so simple. i think im making headway then i fail the first clue after getting it right... i dont understand... i actually like this game too
oh no, i'm sorry!
https://discord.com/invite/ycf6Jzu
there is a discord for the game, it's possible other people can explain the puzzles better than grovyle can
Every time I try to play it freezes at the starting menu when I click it, is it just a me problem?
I don't know, I've never seen anything like that before! I'm sorry
After going for both endings, I realized that when Rhydon asks you if you notice anything different about them, every answer is incorrect (in the sense rhydon is proud of doing one of the other answers)! That's such a silly little detail that doesn't have to be there if the goal was to simply attract perverts like Abra claims. This game is so full of charm in small moments like that. Great work!
Oh thank you! Yeah a lot of the questions the character throw at you don't really have any "right answer" but evoke a lot of silly responses. I'm glad you're having fun with it 😀
is there a gay version/will there be?
You can actually change characters genders with a genderbender tool that you can buy in Heracross shop. Or choose your preferences when making a new game file! I believe, Grovyle asks something like "And what sex do you think I would be?" at the very start of the game
Yes and no. Technically yes because you can genderbend the characters to all be male or all be female, and technically no because the gender bent versions of the characters are canonically just a camera filter and some of the characters are more than happy to repeatedly remind you of this point. Especially at the end of the game when one of the characters canonically being a girl becomes exceptionally relevant information.
Been several years since I played this back when it first was posted on e6, and it's still one of the best flash games out there. The name/password system, the different items, not having all characters unlocked from the start, the world-building, and although I wish all the characters would let you do everything, I think it's actually my favorite part of the game that the characters are all so unique. Not just in personality and dialogue, but even in the ways they play minigames, the way they all have preferences in acts, things they will and won't let you do...This game just feels like so full of life, and it makes it so you always feel like there's more to discover.
Also the fact that you still pop in to see the comments on your game, and even have released updates as recently as last year(even if they're mostly labor of love by another dev, or small updates like dialogue edits), even so many years after its initial release, is really heartwarming to see.
> Not just in personality and dialogue, but even in the ways they play minigames, the way they all have preferences in acts, things they will and won't let you do...
Wow you noticed all that stuff! I think most people are just annoyed they can't win the minigames against Abra or that Smeargle won't let you do anal. But it's kind of how people work in the real world too, isn't it?
I don't think it's very good to have games where the world contorts around the player to make them happy all the time, it feels empty to me. I think it's better if the characters feel "real" even if it means the player doesn't always get what they want
> Also the fact that you still pop in to see the comments on your game, and even have released updates as recently as last year
Ha ha thank you, I am always curious what people have to say! And it feels good when it is something nice, so thank you for saying something nice 🥰 Monster Mind will always be something special to me! It might be the best game I ever make. I'm not sure! I hope not. I'll keep trying to make more games! Making games is a lot of fun.
I had this on desktop for a bit when I posted that first comment, but I switched to mobile. Abra becomes more possible to beat at the scale game when you have a touchscreen heh.
I did see I believe an interview you did about MM where you talked about ideas you had for future games, but said you would have to make a new cast to avoid any potential copyright issues. Am looking forward to seeing what you come up with! It seems like you put a lot of time and effort into learning how to develop characters and tell an interesting story.
Thanks, yeah! I'd love to make another game with characters that you get to know. I really liked that aspect of Monster Mind but it's a tough balance to get right!
honestly you could do what InsomniacOvrlrd did and port your MM-verse characters’ personalities to an original setting!
when IO was DMCA’d by Nintendo, instead of deleting everything, they made their own setting called Passiontail Isle and retooled their established recurring cast there as fakemon.
Same personalities, same names, I believe, possibly even the same plots. But copyright-friendly.
That's a creative idea! I obviously couldn't keep their "names" in my case but definitely having characters with the same personalities would work
