A Pitzenet Review and the Gaming World’s Reaction to Palworld.
Pitzenet Review
Pitzenet Team Score: 8.05
Pitzenet Team Number: 1
Palworld 1.0 is a dramatic leap from what was originally released to the public during it’s beta version, most notably in fixing bugs and flushing out content and lore. However, with all of the new bells and whistles, it doesn’t distract from the core of this game: An innovative gameplay experience.
Palworld delivers what it’s most notable inspiration, Pokemon, refuses to do: allow the player to craft a world of their choosing with their Pals. Minecraft, Rimworld, Breath of the Wild, and even Elden Ring all fuse with the comfort of Pokemon into what is now a unique experience.
