}compiler doesn't like me creating an object in a switch statement

Use an anonymous scope:
// ...case 2: { // start anon scope Mob mob1; cout << "\tYou find a " << mob1.getName() << "!" << endl << endl; act = 1; } // end anon scope break;

didn't work. same error :(

That is because mob hasn't been declared in the right scope. The correction that rip-off and I suggested had to do with a different problem you had.
Ah yes, I didn't read the entire code. You could do the following:
You could use pointers (or std::auto_ptr) and dynamic allocation, but that might complicate it a lot.
* Rule of Three
int main(){ // variables Mob mob; do { switch(...) { case 2: // provided your Mob class correctly implements the rule of three* // we can "reset" its value like so mob = Mob(); cout << "\tYou find a " << mob.getName() << "!" << endl << endl; act = 1; break; // other case statements } // ... // use "mob" later onYou could use pointers (or std::auto_ptr) and dynamic allocation, but that might complicate it a lot.

hmm i see.. How should i go about this problem?
here is the concept of my simple text-based RPG:
1. Player is shown a list of a few options, using a do-while loop (1 - show inventory, 2 - explore, 0 - quit)
2. If a player selects 2 (explore) then a Mob is created.
3. act variable is then changed to 1: "encounter"
4. During the encounter, the player menu is changed to encounter menu and fights off the mob.
5. When the mob is killed, return player to main menu (step 1)
i am having trouble with getting step 2 to work.
