Just saying, if you want a real experience with monster-taming, there are other games besides Palworld.
I'm neutral about Palworld, but I'd rather play a game made with a ton of love and care (like Cassette Beasts).

We all know Pokemon. Even if it isn't something you grew up with, you've probably heard of it. According to Wikipedia it's the most popular IP in the whole world, so it's a little weird that we don't have more TTRPG's about collecting monsters. Don't get me wrong, there are a few, but none that really capture that feel of pokemon. I mean, there's a good reason for that, you can't exactly put pikachu into your game without invoking some serious legal consequences. Even if Pokemon did make an official TTRPG, you would probably need to buy both versions of the new book every couple years just to keep up with everything.
For the past decade or so, that's exactly what my friends have been wanting- to play Pokemon as a TTRPG, and so I've been tinkering. Across several iterations with different dice and mechanics and systems I honed an RPG that could handle Pokemon, or Digimon or any IP in the Creature Collecting genre. Build the monsters as you play, draw cards from the tarot deck to create your creatures and battle across the land either solo or with up to 4 players. No GM Required. Now I'm teaming up with my favorite local artist from my home town Milwaukee to make this game a reality!
This project is so many aspects of who I am manifested into physical form. I've been a huge fan of TTRPG's, Creature Collecting games, and Card Games my whole life, and I've often used the tarot to help me with my writing. This project has been over a decade in the making, so please check it out if it sounds like something you might be interested in and grab a Free Playtest PDF!

Video game monsters got me good this year, and even a simple beastie from the series Monster Crown has got me eating well creatively! Nice excuse to look up and butcher animal anatomy lol
