We tell you who should skip it, too.
Play it if you…
Good fit- Co-op groups who want chaotic cave exploration
- Players who enjoy changing environments and improvised routes
- Dog-focused adventure fans who want a rescue objective
Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking a calm or low-risk adventure may find falling, traps, hazards, and explosions too chaotic.
- Players wanting a fixed, predictable level structure may not enjoy procedurally arranged biomes and destructible routes.
- Players looking for a primarily competitive shooter may find the dog-rescue and cave-navigation structure too central.
Our take on Pratfall
Gravity is the defining constraint: falling can injure or down characters while also driving the descent through caves. The rescue route is shaped by digging, drilling, explosives, ziplines, and improvised attempts to catch or revive teammates.
What is Pratfall?
Pratfall is an action-adventure game for solo play or online groups, with support for up to 250 players.
The objective is to descend through dangerous caves and rescue lost dogs while managing falls, traps, hazards, and injuries. Players can dig or drill new routes, use explosives, cross gaps with ziplines, recover with food, and illuminate dark areas with flares. Friends can catch falling teammates or revive them after they go down, while interactive items allow for disruptive antics such as feeding strange objects or throwing bombs. Each run uses three procedurally generated biomes, with destructible terrain, cosmetics, proximity voice chat, remappable controls, and gamepad support.
