So, I'm addicted to this game, not even for the porn in it, just the characters and puzzle aspect have me so entranced with it, that when I do get to the more horny parts I kinda skip over them to see if I can get any more of that juicy lore. I downloaded the game four days ago, I've been grinding it and have made it to 33 hours played on it, I'm going for 100 hours to see if I have missed anything. I'm doing this to get a more concrete standing in this game then just one really good playthrough. But for now, I'll rank this game in four categories, Gameplay, Story (I know some games don't have a story, but this one does), Graphics (I don't necessarily care about this so I might grade this low, but just know its because some games have really good graphics and it would be a disservice  not to include it), And finally, the PORN (I know this isn't in most games, but this one has it so I include it). Understand this is just my opinion so if you disagree with me please explain why.

Gameplay: Really well balanced, the progression of puzzle difficultly was made so smooth and the choice of doing the tutorials give the player the freedom of choosing to learn the puzzles by trial and error, Abra's hints are actually good, the only major difficultly spike in the game is when you go from NOVICE to 3 PEG, but it doesn't take that long to understand and if your really confused by it, try the tutorial, it might help. The minigames are a completely different story, all three are very simple, good but simple, now I think the most complicated of the three is the peg balancing game because it requires quick math reflexes, tug-of-war is a simple concept but in this game it gives it a bit of a twist and the stair game I don't want to talk about it because I have a negative bias towards it that might be completely unwarranted. In total I give the gameplay a 9/10.


Story: I didn't pay much attention to the story until the end with Abra, I don't want to spoil the end too much, but my favorite character, Buizel, has some good character backstory and personality that makes the character so lovable, which makes sense cosidering that some of the pokemon are based on the creator of the game, ArgonVile (Hope you read this), experiences as well as their friends, too. I give it a 8.5/10

Graphics: This category does not treat this game well but I like to think the pixel art does this game well, makes it seem more simple, enticing, the same effect the game Terraria has on people that like pixel art. Although I like the stylistic choice of Pixel art but now and days most people care way to much about graphics, so its a good thing I don't care about them right now, my opinion so I give it 8/10

PORN: ArgonVile actually cooked on this one, you can choose which gender you want all the pokemon to be and not only that but It changes dialog and the animations to them. The time and effort ArgonVile put into just this one part of the game puts me in awe, even baffled to think about the amount of willpower needed to do such a feat. Now I'm not trying to belittle the other parts of the game, but drawing porn and then animating it then coding it to work then testing it to see if it works is a long process. Oh, before I forget to mention, the porn, sex part? Sure, imma call it that, is really smooth and well made, not to realistic but the reactions you get from the pokemon is well coded. this is an easy 10/10, makes sense for a well made porn game.

Ending statement: According to my scoring I give this game a 35.5/40 or in a percentile form, a 88%, I would say that would be above average. Now that I'm at an hour and twenty minutes of typing this, my final thoughts come down to, Me LiKe GaMe, VeRy FuN, and in all seriousness, Good job to ArgonVile for making a beautifully crafted game. :D

P.S. I'm using what the actual genders of the pokemon are, not whatever I prefer as it makes more sense.

Wow thanks for the detailed review! It's unusual for games to balance porn and gameplay, but I wanted both parts to be good so that players would feel rewarded for their gameplay and not just want to skip to the porn. But you're right, I've seen MUCH better looking graphics in porn game and some of the stuff people do is insane!! But I'm very happy with Monster Mind and I'm blown away you've played it for 33 hours.

If you're looking for extra things you haven't finished yet -- many people overlook giving Grimer one of their dildos to eat, and many people overlook calling Sandslash on the Heracross phone. And, some people overlook playing with Pokemon in Heracross's back room! All things are unnecessary to complete the game, but there's some funny dialog and special scenes if you do them.

If it makes it any better, I just hit 60 hours played and definitely will be recommending to others, thanks for responding though, the one thing you mentioned people overlooking is calling sandslash on the heracross phone? How do I do that? Also, I'm going to make and even longer and more detailed review about your game, I think I missed a few topics and other things I should have talked about that now playing the game through a second time helped me remembered. Also I would like to thank you for making this game, the one review I made on it alone re-sparked an academic journalism I had thought I had lost, specifically gaming journalism. But thanks for your opinion and helpful hints inside your game I'll definitely try to make anyone of my saves hit 100% at some point.

> How do I do that?

Make sure you let Grimer eat one of your dildos at some point -- then, after buying all the items in the shop and Heracross should only have two things for sale, mystery boxes and the Heracross phone!

When you use the Heracross phone, you can call any Pokemon you want. Usually people will pick Lucario, but nothing stops you from calling Heracross or Sandslash even though they're already in the house! And if you call Sandslash or Heracross something funny happens.

Wow that's cool, it's so funny how stuff like that gets lost sometimes! I'm glad I could help you out in some small way~
