You're right, but it's still the same principle. Only the implementation can be patented, not the actual concept in itself. Which, given how different the 2 games are, is statistically impossible that they have the exact same code and implementation.

You don't know the difference between patents and copyrights.
The implementation is copyrighted, aka the exact same code.
The concept is patented.
Patent infringement doesn't require copying code. It's about using a patented concept or method, even if implemented differently.
