We found out tonight that the domestic indie game "Showa Mikoku Monogatari", which has previously caused heated discussions because of its unique theme, has been copied.
There is already a mobile game of the same name on the App Store, which uses the name and art materials of "Showa Mikoku Monogatari", and the producer is displayed as Blue Cartoon Games, which is registered as Hefei Blue Kaman Technology Co., Ltd. according to the official website and Tianyancha, and is not the real developer of "Showa Monogatari Mikoku".
It can be found through the Seven Mai data that the game was also called "Chariot Collision Zombie 2" when it was updated on December 4, 2021, and the version on January 13, 22 was renamed "Showa Rice Story".
At present, the in-game logo is still "Chariot Collision Zombie 2", which is a zombie-themed parkour game.
In addition, another game released by the company on the App Store is Daddy's Burger Shop - Gourmet Cooking Game, which is similar to the name of the classic business simulation game that many players remember as childhood, "Daddy Burger Shop".
2PGames, the publisher of Showa Rice Story, told us that it was aware of the matter and would submit a lawyer's letter in the near future.
We will continue to pay attention to this matter, and hope that everyone can also support genuine games and support excellent independent works in China.
