By experimenting with plorts and slimes, you can create your very own special slimes and discover a whole host of different variants to rake in the big bucks. If you think about it, it works in a similar way to exposing, say, Eevee, to a certain type of evolution stone. Slimes will also evolve and grow, so if a pink slime eats a different kind of slime’s plort, they’ll evolve and turn into a unique slime. There’s a whole variety of different slimes that each have their own Plorts worth different values. You then plop the happy little blobs into your ranch and feed them until they drop plorts - slime droppings that act as the game’s currency. The objective is to capture different kinds of cute slimes you can find bouncing around the lands by sucking them up. As rancher Beatrix LeBeau, you explore the lands with your trusty vacpack. In Slime Rancher you’ve still gotta catch ‘em all, it’s just a bit more. Instead of a turn-based battle system, Next Order changes it up from other entries with real-time fighting. As you explore the world, you’ll encounter other owners who you can battle to develop your Digimon’s abilities and raise their levels to digivolve them. If you loved the interactive side of Pokemon: Let’s Go where you could pet and feed Eevee or Pikachu, you’re sure to enjoy working on increasing your bond with your companions by feeding and praising your Digimon pals, and giving them various gifts. Set in an open world, you are limited to just two Digimon who you evolve and train. Next Order essentially builds on the Digital Monster, which was the Tamagotchi-like digital pet that spawned the Digimon franchise. Digimon World: Next Order is a great option for anyone who loved raising their Pokemon, as it puts more of emphasis on raising and training Digimon than other entries in the series. Players have been making comparisons between Pokemon and Digimon for as long as they’ve both been around, so you really can’t go wrong with any Digimon title. Just as you train, evolve and battle with your best Pokemon buddies, you do much the same with the Yo-Kai, but it has its own unique grid-based battle system instead of move commands. Instead of capturing Yo-kai, you get the option to befriend them after a battle.

The third game in the series has over 600 kinds of Yo-Kai, including fun ‘Merica themed spirits that look like cowboys and cheeseburgers. Peanutsburg, and Hailey who runs her own Yo-kai detective agency in Springdale. The story is split between two hemispheres and you switch between playing Nate in the new town of St. Yo-kai are spirits who come in all kinds of forms, from adorable cat-like creatures to fairies and bunnies. While we wait for Yokai Watch 4 to find its way onto the Nintendo Switch at some point this year, Yokai Watch 3 is the latest instalment in the long-running franchise to get localised - and it’s an absolute must if you’re after something similar to the Pokemon RPGs. The upgraded version adds even more Mirages to encounter, and more well-known Final Fantasy characters to meet, including Noctis, Lightening, and Yuna.

Originally released in 2016, World of Final Fantasy got a bit of an update and re-release just last year with Maxima. As they journey across the lands, they encounter other Final Fantasy characters who belong to different factions. The twins go through a portal to Gymoire to help battle against the Bahamutian Army who seek to destroy it.

The land is inhabited by chibi-like people known as Lilikins, which is why everyone looks like cutesy Final Fantasy characters.

Mirages are monsters not unlike Pokemon who the twins can capture and train to fight for them. They are greeted by a mysterious woman who tells them they are Mirage keepers in the land of Gymoire. You follow the journey of twins Lann and Reynn who are suffering from amnesia and don’t remember anything about their past. World of Final Fantasy has a lot of similarities to the classic Pokemon RPGs we know and love. Available on: PC, Xbox One, PS4, Nintendo Switch
