Yes, I would- and have recommend Palia to others. But, with a few warnings. First the game can be glitchy. Like your pet may float in the air, or run in place. The other warning is even though this game is free to play, and you don't have to spend money on it. It is moving towards a Pay to Win type of game. For example, if you work on "unlocking" a new item during game play. The premium items can often be unusable until you pay (real money) to actually use them. Which, I am not a fan of. If I do challenges/ paths and "unlock" an item- that should be it. I should be able to use that item w/o paying anything! The Premium items from the game store are often overpriced as well. I would not mind spending $ 5 to even $ 10 on a license to be able to ride a fancier mount or to have nicer clothes, mainly cosmectic items. But this is not the case- it can cost much, much more! Palia- my advice to you- work on your game bugs, make all pathing/ challange items usable and free of charge, and last -reduce the cost of Store Premium items.

Palia is exactly the type of game I was looking for, its cozy, addicting to play and there's so much to do. I like that they continuously update it so you don't run out of content. The style and the graphics are amazing and the story telling and main quests are actually detailed and entertaining.
