If PETA already had a problem with Pokemon I think this game would give them a heart attack...
Anyone here heard about this game? : https://store.steampowered.com/app/1623730/Palworld/
Seems like it involves enslaving Pokemon-like creatures and putting them to work to build stuff... The player can also eat them it seems... : https://www.siliconera.com/palworld-is-a-weird-compelling-pokemon-assembly-line-sim/
The game seems to be doing very well on Steam despite being early access and not having much story so far... : https://www.siliconera.com/palworld-downloads-pass-1-million/
The gameplay sounds fun if you don't mind the dark premise of enslaving cute Pokemon-like creatures/animals I suppose...
