Coolabi knows what it’s doing with Warrior Cats. When fans made a Roblox game based on the kidlit IP, Coolabi didn’t shut it down—it partnered with the project, which has since turned into one of the most unique, popular games on the platform. (Read more about it in our recent Q2 magazine issue.) Now they’re leveraging that popularity to turn the IP into a series, rolling it out with Tencent in China, where cats in general are soaring in popularity. Coupled with Coolabi’s smart digitally-minded hiring moves, this project’s looking like the cat’s meow—which is why readers handed it a Gold Star!
Read what we wrote Friday about Coolabi and Tencent—as well as runners-up Ánima Kitchent and ElevenLabs and Hasbro—right here.
