The email requested that the Monkey Quest Reborn team cease operation immediately due to unauthorized use of assets, trademark infringement, and copyright infringement.Īfter validating the legitimacy of the email, Necromatical reached out to the concerned company in an attempt to acquire a license or some form of permission to continue working on the game.
