Mobile Game “Cloning” Sparks Controversy
Currently, almost every gamer is aware of AFK Journey. Recently, AFK Journey has become one of the most notable gacha games of 2024, winning numerous major awards, and it has even been nominated as the best iPhone game at the App Store Awards 2024.

As new games emerge, a new contender has appeared, boasting a design and gameplay that resembles “99%” of AFK Journey, currently being advertised and drawing the attention of many gamers. This game is named ETAF**, which is set to be released for free on mobile devices and is expected to launch soon.




A quick glance reveals many similarities between ETAF** and AFK Journey. In fact, if one is not careful, many gamers might confuse the two games entirely. This overwhelming similarity has caused considerable outrage, with many believing that ETAF** is a blatant clone of “the one in the mirror.”
Is this Controversial Game a Product of a Vietnamese Developer?
It is worth noting that ETAF** is said to be developed by P* Studio – a Vietnamese development studio. This fact has sparked significant controversy, leaving gamers in the country feeling unsettled.


As of now, ETAF** has not yet been officially recognized, and it still lacks a formal release. Given this situation, it is certain that the game will encounter even more scrutiny in the near future.
