A Pomodoro timer with a mon to catch at the end of every session

PomoMons is a free Pomodoro timer with a creature collector attached. Start a focus session, work until it ends, and a wild Pomomon turns up. Throw a tomato, catch it, and the mon joins your Pomodex.

No account. No download. No ads, no paid tier.

How it works

Set your session. Choose a time between 20 and 90 minutes to focus.
Press START and focus. Switching tabs will not stop the timer.
A wild mon appears the moment the session is up. Throw a tomato to catch it.
Take the break, or press CONTINUE FOCUSING to skip it.

What you’re collecting

30 mon forms across 16 food based species. Tomotot is a tomato that becomes Marinaro and then Strangletti; Chilino is a chili that ends up a ghost pepper. Five flavor types: Savory, Sweet, Spicy, Sour and Bitter.

Dark mons are about 1 in 100; a shiny is rarer, about 1 in 500, and wins if both roll. See every mon and its evolution level.

The research

A 2023 trial out of Maastricht University (Biwer et al., British Journal of Educational Psychology) found fixed breaks cut fatigue and distraction versus choosing your own. The game layer is backed by stronger evidence still: four meta-analyses, including Sailer & Homner (Educational Psychology Review, 2020) and Zeng et al. (British Journal of Educational Technology, 2024) covering thousands of students, all finding gamified learning improves outcomes. Read all nine studies, including the two that disagree with us.

Free, no account, works offline

Your level, sessions and collection save in your own browser, with nothing uploaded and no account. It installs like an app and works fully offline after one load. The site counts anonymous page views and sets no tracking cookies.

Important: clearing your browser's site data deletes your collection. Copy the restore code from your collection screen first to bring it back anywhere.

How it compares to other focus timers

Nearly every focus app with a reward loop, like Forest, Flora, Study Bunny, Focus Plant and Focus Friend, is a phone app. If you work at a computer, the thing tracking your focus shouldn't live on a different one. PomoMons runs right in the tab you already have open.
