“ | Mimic?! What are you doing here? We now have substantial evidence that the shapeshifting Air Top Boss has been laying low in the Monster World ever since the Dawn of Fire, masquerading as its fellow Monsters. Previously, these imitations have extended only to appearance and sound, but now it seems like the Mimic is upping the ante and trying to pass itself off as a Relic-seeking Fire Monster. Those in the know are wise to its chicanery, but the rabble has been successfully duped - the trick has something to do with the mysterious atmosphere the Mimic can generate around itself, and the way light bends around it. That voice, though… there’s no mistaking that voice. | ” |

Description[]
Mimic is a Quint-Element Natural Monster that is found exclusively on Fire Oasis. It was added alongside Epic Spurrit, Epic Phangler, and Wubbox on Fire Oasis on May 15th, 2024, during version 4.3.0. As a Quint-Element Natural Monster on Fire Oasis, Mimic is only available at select times. When available, it is obtained by purchasing in the Market for 500 . By default, its incubation time is 3 days and 8 hours long. As a Quint-Elemental, Mimic has excellent Coin production, comparable to Rare Sneyser. The Goal for placing your first Mimic rewards the player with 10 and 5 .
Song[]
Audio sample:
Voice actor: Dave Kerr
Mimic contributes by trying to imitate, in a mimicking manner, the sounds of one or more specific Monsters on the Island it is on.
On Fire Oasis, it first attempts to imitate Spurrit in Toe Jammer's verse, but says "Hu-Caw", then says "Ca-Caw" (imitating a crow) for the rest of its first track instead of saying "Huzzah", it laughs after saying "Ca-Caw" four times, then says "Huh?", and it says "Ca-Caw" one more time. Then it tries to imitate Gobbleygourd the same way as the first time, but in a more bird-like tone. It says "Duh-Huh" or "Gloo-Glooo" after saying "Ca-Caw" one time, and then says it another two times.
Simply put, Mimic on Fire Oasis makes bird-like tones (specifically a crow) based on the two Monsters that it is trying to imitate.
Breed[]
Unlike in Dawn of Fire, where Mimic is best bred with Deedge and Noggin, Mimic cannot breed or be bred. Instead, it must be purchased from the Market.
Likes[]
Every Monster has different things that they like. For every unique object that they like that's placed near the Monster, the Monster's happiness will increase by 25%. Placing more than one of the same liked item near a Monster won't increase its happiness by an additional amount. If there's a Unity Tree on the Island, items don't need to be near the Monster. Below are the things liked by Mimic:
- Gobbleygourd (requires level 9)
- Smunkit (level 11)
- Spurrit Statue (level 15)
- Mountain Morsel (level 10) ()
See the Likes page to view a complete list of all Monsters' likes.
Note: Gobbleygourd is only obtainable for a limited time, and it may not be possible to get Mimic to 100% happiness, besides the Scratch Ticket.

Notes[]
- Mimic is the only Natural Monster:
- To not be on ANY Natural Island.
- To be introduced in Dawn of Fire before being added to the original game.
- To be a part of the Fire Expansion.
- To be purchasable with Relics .
- That cannot breed or be bred in the original game.
- To not be on any Islands where all other Naturals are found (Tribal Island, The Colossingum, Composer Island, or Gold Island).
- To be on only one Island in the main game.
- To not have a Rare or Epic variant.
- To be facing to the left in Monster Portraits, as all other Natural Monsters face to the right.
- On release, it states in the Book of Monsters that Mimic can be both bought or bred. This is most likely an oversight.
- Mimic's name comes from the word "Mimic", meaning to imitate or copy someone. This references its sound, which usually copies other Monsters.
- This also references its old sound, which would've had to been recorded by the player, henceforth copying them. This original iteration of Mimic was first revealed in the Extra Life 2018 livestream on November 4th, and it was scrapped as it wasn't considered good enough for the game. Eventually, the concept was later tweaked and turned into the Recording Studio.
- In the Version 4.3 Update Showcase, Monster-Handler Matt hinted that Fire Oasis may not be the only Island that Mimic will be available on in the original game, suggesting that it will appear on another Island in the future.[1]
- It was also noted that Mimic's incubation time matches that of the Fire Quints, since it is attempting to blend in with them. Matt also suggested that this won't be the only incubation time Mimic will have, also implying that the island that Mimic could appear on requires Monsters to be incubated.[2]
- According to Dave Kerr[3] and Monster-Handler Matt[4], the sounds for Mimic on Fire Oasis are outtakes.
- The feathers from Mimic's concept art were later reused for Rare Clamble.
- Mimic's color scheme may come from it being the culmination of the five Natural Elements, with Air, Plant, Earth, Water, and Cold as its elements representing the yellow, green, black, blue, and white colors on its body respectively.
- In addition to Mimic representing the element of Air, since it is based on a parrot, it would've also represented the Natural Class due to it having all 5 Natural Elements excluding Fire. Despite this though, it is strangely not and can't be placed on Air Island, or any other Natural Island.
- The rest of the Natural and Fire elements are represented by different Quints.
- In addition to Mimic representing the element of Air, since it is based on a parrot, it would've also represented the Natural Class due to it having all 5 Natural Elements excluding Fire. Despite this though, it is strangely not and can't be placed on Air Island, or any other Natural Island.
- The concept bio of Mimic reads: "The Mimic monster is an extremely unique monster among the rabble. They have three legs and they are surrounded by mysterious atmosphere. They contain luminous substance, so when they [sic] is danger, those substance lightens to protect Mimic."
- The concept bio is written in broken English because it was never finalized.
- This early bio is referenced in Mimic's actual bio, specifically its 'mysterious atmosphere' and its ability to bend the light around it.[5]
- Some of Mimic's original concept nicknames were Mocky, Ekko, and Coppy. Its original nicknames come from words:
- Mocky comes from mock.
- Ekko comes from echo.
- Coppy comes from copy.
- Mimic appears in the Wild Fires promotion, despite it not being a Fire Elemental. In its promotional image, it is shown to mimic Candelavra and act as a Fire Monster.
- Mimic is the last remaining Natural Monster to be added to the game.
- Not counting alternative forms, it is also the final Monster originally exclusive to Dawn of Fire to be added to the game.
- Mimic is one of the three Natural Monsters, the other two being Dandidoo & T-Rox, that is not on any of the Islands their elements represent.
- Mimic has the best Coin Production out of every Quint. This is because it has (and presumably copies) the same Coin Rate as Gnarls (the highest Coin Rate) and the same Max Income as Tuskski (the highest Max Income).
- The Perplexplore 2024 Trailer is currently the only time where Mimic has been seen perfectly copying another Monster, however, once its disguise was busted, its sclerae turned green and it puked out feathers.
- If Mimic was intended to be breedable, then its best combination would be Deedge and Noggin or Spunge and Drumpler.
- Unlike in Dawn of Fire, Mimic:
- Doesn't harmonize in both of its tracks.
- Has a noticeably smaller size.
- Has moving pupil reflections in its eyes, where in Dawn of Fire, they are locked in place.
- In the first part of Mimic's first track on Fire Oasis, you can hear a mouse click.
- Also on Fire Oasis, if the player does not have either Spurrit or Gobbleygourd yet they still have Mimic, the latter still plays its two tracks even if the former two are not there or muted.
- As seen in several trailers, Mimic possesses the unique ability to transform into other monsters as it wishes, however, Mimic in-game doesn't actually shapeshift into the monsters it mimics.
- As of right now, Mimic is currently the second Quint-Element monster to receive a costume, with the first being Gnarls.
- Mimic's Festyvalgoer costume is currently the only costume to be obtained via redeem code.
- Because of Mimic's Festyvalgoer costume being in the SummerSong series, it might be available for purchase in the future, similarly to Epic Thumpies' MacE and KarrTooF costume.
- According to the Monster Handlers, Mimic is able to imitate the sounds of instruments, albeit not very accurately.
