About Pocket Lint

A deceptively hard little game of deduction. I’ve emptied my pockets onto the table, and I’m now thinking of a specific combination of those items. Can you guess it in as few guesses as possible?

How it plays

Each guess you make, information will be revealed about what you got right. By combining divide-and-conquer, with process-of-elimination, you should be able to quickly figure out the answer. Each round, you'll get a new selection of items to play with and a new colour palette to keep things interesting.

Your journey

You’ll start in the campaign mode that will introduce you to all the basics at a steady pace, starting from 2 slots all the way up to 6. Once you’ve completed that, it will transition into the endless mode, where you can test yourself forever against procedurally generated levels.

Pocket Lint is a delightful adaptation of the classic 1970's deduction game Mastermind, offering players a deceptively challenging experience that combines logical reasoning and problem-solving skills to uncover hidden combinations of everyday objects. The gameplay revolves around making calculated guesses to deduce a specific combination of items that have been emptied from the player's pockets.

To keep the experience engaging and visually appealing, the game introduces a fresh selection of items and a new color palette for each round. The various modes cater to different player preferences, from the steady progression of the campaign mode to the endless mode's procedural challenges and the creative freedom offered by the sandbox mode. Developed by Follow the Fun, the game features a resizable window mode for flexible gameplay and a history of your saved games to ensure players never lose their progress. While the game does not support game controllers, it accommodates mou…

Pocket Lint is a compact logic puzzle game that builds its entire experience around deduction, pattern recognition, and steady mental refinement. Developed and published by Follow the Fun, the game takes a familiar concept—guessing a hidden combination based on feedback—and distills it into a clean, approachable format that emphasizes clarity and thoughtful decision-making. At first glance, the presentation is understated, but that simplicity serves an important purpose: keeping the player’s attention focused entirely on reasoning through each puzzle rather than managing complex systems or distractions. The core gameplay loop centers on identifying the correct arrangement of everyday pocket items hidden behind the scenes. With each attempt, players receive feedback indicating which parts of their guess are correct and which are misplaced, encouraging a process of elimination and hypothesis testing. This creates a satisfying rhythm where each guess informs the next, rewarding careful planning over trial-and-error clicking. As puzzles grow more complex, success depends increasingly on remembering previous results, recognizing patterns, and adapting strategies, making each solved com…
