Yeah it's clearly shovelware, the devs made Craftopia and this is very obviously that game with Pokemon stuff shoved in in place of more traditional Minecraft gameplay. It cribs unabashedly from every popular game of the last decade, and it looks like there really isn't anything to do other than grind, like every other generic wilderness survival crafting game. ARK seems like one of the prime inspirations, which blows my mind because I can't imagine anyone looking at ARK and thinking "oh yeah let's do more of that".

I would be shocked if the game still has momentum 6 months from now.
