  4. Thinking more about #Nintendo's #PalWorld #lawsuit, which claims that many of the mechanics, such as the #PalBall, are too similar to #Pokemon's mechanics, like the #PokeBall.

    Wondering if it would be a good idea for #PocketPair to take a cue from #BugSnax, and replace the "ball" with a cyllindrical "trap". Perhaps they can take inspiration from #GhostBusters, and have some sort of energy based trap which opens at the top and sucks the magic monsters in. They should definitely be leaning hard into the #MonsterCollecting genre's roots of #Yokai, #Spirit entities, and #mythological #cryptids.

    They might be able to avoid some damages if they lose this or have to settle in a few years by just changing up a few aesthetics, and I think the game itself would benefit from this: I personally think the Pal Ball looks odd and out of place as a mechanic, like it's just there to copy Pokemon.

    Then again, changing things might be an admission of guilt? I'm not a lawyer.

    And of all the creatures and beings within the #FolkloreMonopoly the most beautiful and terrible are the Serpent Folk. In Japan they are called Nure Onna. In India their name is Naga.

    Our trolls are adverse to organized religion of any kind. If they weren't made of magic themselves, they'd be atheists.
