With strikingly similar aesthetics and game mechanics to Pokémon, the game has been accused of plagiarism by fans and lawyers alike. And according to ex-Capcom dev Yoshiki Okamoto ( Monster Strike, Folklore), you-yes you-shouldn't even be playing until and unless the lawsuit is settled in Pocketpair's favor. "I don't want the world to think [ Palworld] is acceptable," Okamoto said, urging folks not to play the game.

Basically, it sounds like the Palworld version of farming simulator games like Stardew Valley. "Each Pal will lend a hand in farm work by making use of their unique abilities," Pocketpair says in a press release. "From sowing seeds and watering to harvesting, Pals make for reliable partners. Deepen your relationships with the island residents and Pals through daily conversation and gift-giving, and you may discover unexpected, special stories unfolding."
