Although the game's makers have never officially confirmed it, the inspiration from Pokemon is pretty clear when you look at the world created in the “Palworld” universe. The title from the Japanese studio PocketPair is a survival game where – very briefly – fantastic creatures must be treated as a tool for everyday survival. However, the production clearly appealed to the tastes of gamers around the world, as it was a huge sales success.
According to Banker.pl, the game debuted on January 19 on the digital sales platform Steam and sold more than 5 million copies in the first three days, and on Sunday alone sales reached 86,000 pcs per hour.

More importantly, the game itself – which currently costs PLN 125.09 – has been released imperfectly at the moment.

However, the game makers do not care about such arguments and are happy with the great success. This is all the greater because The game cost less than 1 billion yen (about $6.76 million USD) to produce and everything indicates that it might go down in history as the most popular game on Steam..
