While you work, your monsters fight.
TASMON: Taskbar Monsters is an idle RPG that lives in your desktop taskbar. Whether you're working or asleep, your party of three auto-battles on its own — bringing back eggs and loot. Pop in now and then to retune your team and hunt for perfect rolls. That's it.
🥚 Collect 156 monsters
Hatch eggs, evolve and awaken them. Ten rarity tiers (Common → … → Celestial), with fewer species at the top so chasing a specific one never loses its value. New species keep arriving with every update.
⚡ Awakened forms change everything
A six-stage awakening ladder: same-species guarantees +1 stage, off-species is a shard-based roll. Max out Awakening VI and your monster ascends into a Soul-Sealed Weapon — a one-of-a-kind armament, stamped with its own serial number, that exists nowhere else in the world.
🎲 Loot-hunt depth with fully disclosed odds
Gear combines drops, two slots, option rows and unique effects. Fuse nine into one with the Cube, re-roll to min-max, and push numbers further with etching . Every drop rate is disclosed in-game.
🔥 Elemental strategy that never soft-locks you
A fire/water/wind/earth cycle (+35% advantage / −25% disadvantage) plus light/dark. In the "Gauntlet" stages from Hell onward, incoming damage spikes hard — you'll need elemental defense or a resistance team to survive. Brute-force with awakened power, or out-strategize with typing: both routes clear it. Four difficulties: Normal → Nightmare → Hell → Torment.
