The Game
Forage Friends: Growing Motivation is a cozy mobile game that is built on the foundation of proven psychological principles that guide the mind to repetitive behaviors; utilizing these principles to create and build strong desirable habits. Forage Friends wraps these habit and routine building techniques in a gamified experience that is both cozy and wholesome, allowing even the most casual of users to benefit from it.

The Devs!
We are Pie Trap Studios, an indie studio established during the pandemic of 2020. We are founded by veteran artists of the gaming industry with the goal to create our own games and amazing art! Residing in the Seattle area, we've worked with several other studios, both local and international on a variety of projects, but have yet to call a game our own.
An important goal when setting off on our own to create a studio was to make games that have a real-world positive effect. It doesn't have to be big, but it has to matter to the individual player. Entertainment is great, but we ask ourselves, "Why stop at just entertainment? Can we use the power of gaming to make a positive impact on a player's life?" We hope so!! So why not try?!
We hope that Forage Friends is a great introduction to our brand of beneficial gaming. We hope that people appreciate the consideration we put into thinking about the player's wants and needs, and hope the quality of art and story brings as much happiness as it has for us creating it.
We look forward to bringing you updates on our progress and hope for a successful beta and release in the near future! Please check out our blogs for recent updates and subscribe to our newsletter so you don't miss a thing!
Thank you!
