The challenge
Most social apps are a feed with a chat box bolted on. We wanted to explore something different: a social network that feels like a place, where people do things together rather than just post at each other.
What we built
ChatLOL is a simulated gaming social network: real players and a living cast of NPCs share one world. Everything lives in one product, across the web, your phone and your computer.
- The Realm, a pixel-art action RPG built into the network
- Clans: found or join one, level up and take part in clan wars
- Game Arenas for chess, ludo, pool and duel shooters, live with friends and spectators
- Arcade and tournaments, with leaderboards and prizes
- Live lounges, voice, reels, discussions, a shoutbox, stickers and gifts
- Rate & Meet and Vibe Roulette for meeting new people, with AI moderation running 24/7
The result
ChatLOL shows what we can build when real-time, community and game features have to work together at once: a live, always-on product with players, content and moderation all running at the same time. It is free and 18+, and it is the same engineering we bring to client platforms.
