How do Midnight Works get away with this?

store.playstation.com Rocket Car : Ultimate Ball League Machines

Rev up the Action, Score the Goal Rocket Car Where Champions Are Born

I was browsing the PS Store and spotted three of these complete rip-off games, all from the same company. And they're not even subtle rip-offs either.

Take Rocket Car as an example. Looks remarkably similar to something else, doesn't it?

Then there's Construction Machine Simulator. Again, remind you of anything else? Okay, there's a few of these type of games, but this one doesn't even try and disguise that it's ripping off the main game in this genre: https://store.playstation.com/en-gb/product/EP6326-CUSA43614_00-0303332389496733

And finally, there's Wash Simulator. Yet another not even subtle rip off of another popular game: https://store.playstation.com/en-gb/concept/10008957

These are the only ones I've spotted from a quick browse through the Store, I assume there is more. But how on Earth do companies get away with stuff like this? I can understand it on mobile app stores, but are there no checks before these games are put on the PS Store?
