Palworld is an open-world monster-taming survival game with a twist. While it takes inspiration from games like Pokémon, it also incorporates darker themes and controversial mechanics, such as murder and slavery.

In Palworld, you can catch and befriend, or exploit, pals (the creatures in this universe) or humans. Pals can be injured, killed or even eaten, which has made this game not suitable for all audiences.

The game has experienced a fast rise to fame since its release due to a combination of things, like open world exploration and crafting system. Among the playerbase there are many Pokémon fans, who appreciate the blend of familiar Pokémon-like mechanics with survival elements and darker themes. Some Pokemon fans are critical of recent Pokemon titles and have found enjoyment in Palworld.
