prated.top was founded in 2022 by a team of comedy writers and narrative game developers with a mission to create a lighthearted, dialogue-driven experience that celebrates humor, friendship, and choice-based storytelling. Based in Austin, Texas, our team of 8 developers, character designers, and comedy writers combines expertise in witty dialogue crafting, animal-themed world-building, and family-friendly gameplay to craft a whimsical adventure.
Our flagship title, Prated: Chatter of the Woods, invites players to explore a vibrant forest inhabited by 30+ quirky animal characters—from a sarcastic fox journalist and a overly dramatic owl poet to a shy rabbit inventor and a wise old tortoise storyteller. Players engage in humorous, choice-based conversations that shape relationships with characters, solve gentle dialogue puzzles (e.g., calming a upset squirrel, mediating a dispute between birds), and uncover short, heartwarming storylines about friendship, teamwork, and self-expression. The game features colorful, cartoon-style graphics, upbeat folk-inspired music, and dynamic dialogue that adapts to player choices—no two conversations feel exactly the same.
What sets us apart is our focus on humor and heart. We collaborate with comedy writers to ensure dialogue is witty yet family-appropriate, balancing silly one-liners with genuine emotional moments. The game avoids complex mechanics, instead letting players focus on the joy of interacting with charming characters. We offer multiple play styles: Casual Chat (free-form conversations with no pressure), Story Quests (guided narratives with character-specific missions), and Mini-Games (dialogue-based challenges like "improv contests" or "riddle battles"). Regular updates introduce new animal characters, holiday-themed dialogue, and community-voted storylines.
Since launching, prated.top has grown to over 95,000 registered players, including families, casual gamers, and those seeking lighthearted entertainment. Parents praise the game’s positive messages and age-appropriate humor, while players of all ages enjoy the charming characters and witty dialogue. Community feedback has driven major updates, including a character customization tool, cross-platform play, a mobile version optimized for touch controls, and a "dialogue creator" feature that lets players craft custom lines for their favorite characters (moderated for family-friendliness). We also partner with children’s book illustrators to create exclusive character skins and storybook tie-ins.
Looking to the future, we’re expanding Prated: Chatter of the Woods with a cooperative mode where players can explore the forest together and solve group dialogue puzzles, a "forest festival" feature that hosts seasonal events with special conversations, and more character backstory chapters that dive deeper into each animal’s personality. We’re also developing a companion app that offers interactive storybooks featuring the game’s characters, extending the whimsical world beyond gameplay.
At prated.top, our mission is to bring joy, laughter, and heart to players of all ages through the power of conversation and character. We believe that storytelling doesn’t have to be serious to be meaningful—and that a little humor can go a long way in building connection. Whether you’re chatting with a sarcastic fox or solving a riddle with an owl, we welcome you to join our community of forest chatterboxes.
