Prompt Panther is a groundbreaking action-adventure mobile game developed by Raj Games Studios, a leading Indian game development company based in Bangalore. Launched in October 2022, the game quickly became a sensation in India, blending fast-paced gameplay with rich cultural elements that resonate deeply with local players. Unlike many international mobile games that struggle to adapt to Indian audiences, Prompt Panther was designed from the ground up with India’s diverse culture, preferences, and gaming habits in mind.
The core concept of Prompt Panther revolves around a fearless hero—dubbed the “Panther”—who embarks on a quest to protect ancient Indian treasures from evil forces. The game’s narrative draws inspiration from Indian mythology, folklore, and historical events, creating a storyline that feels both familiar and exciting to Indian players. From exploring the snow-capped peaks of the Himalayas to navigating the bustling streets of Varanasi, Prompt Panther takes players on a journey across India’s most iconic locations, each reimagined with stunning 3D graphics and immersive sound design.
What sets Prompt Panther apart from other mobile games in India is its unwavering focus on localization. Raj Games Studios invested heavily in understanding the needs of Indian gamers, conducting extensive market research across 28 states and 8 union territories. The result is a game that not only supports 12 major Indian languages but also incorporates regional festivals, traditions, and even local slang into its gameplay and dialogue. This attention to detail has helped Prompt Panther build a loyal fanbase of over 50 million active players in India alone, making it one of the top 5 most downloaded mobile games in the country.
In addition to its cultural relevance, Prompt Panther is praised for its accessible gameplay, which caters to both casual and hardcore gamers. The game features intuitive touch controls optimized for Indian mobile devices (many of which have mid-range specifications), offline play options (critical for regions with poor internet connectivity), and a progression system that rewards consistent play without forcing players to spend money. These features have made Prompt Panther a hit across all age groups, from teenagers in metropolitan cities to rural players looking for engaging entertainment.
Prompt Panther is set in a fictionalized version of India where ancient relics known as “Shakti Stones” hold immense power. These stones, scattered across the country, are being hunted by the “Asura Clan”—a group of villains inspired by Indian mythological demons—who plan to use their power to conquer the world. As the Panther, players must travel to different regions of India, defeat the Asura Clan’s minions, and collect the Shakti Stones before it’s too late.
The game’s world is divided into 8 major regions, each based on a real Indian state or geographical area. These regions include: Himalayan Peaks (Uttarakhand/Himachal Pradesh), Ganges Valley (Uttar Pradesh/Bihar), Southern Temples (Tamil Nadu/Kerala), Desert Oasis (Rajasthan), Eastern Jungles (Assam/Meghalaya), Coastal Cliffs (Goa/Maharashtra), Plains Fortresses (Punjab/Haryana), and Urban Ruins (Delhi/Mumbai). Each region has its own unique environment, enemies, and challenges, ensuring that gameplay remains fresh and engaging.
Players can customize their Panther with a wide range of outfits, weapons, and abilities, many of which are inspired by Indian culture. For example, the “Rajput Warrior” outfit features traditional armor and a sword modeled after those used by Rajput kings, while the “Yogi Sage” outfit grants magical abilities based on yoga and meditation. Weapons include the “Vajra Axe” (inspired by Indra’s thunderbolt), the “Katar Daggers” (a traditional Indian melee weapon), and the “Lotus Bow” (a bow adorned with lotus motifs, symbolizing purity in Indian culture).

Prompt Panther offers four main game modes, each catering to different player preferences: Story Mode, Battle Royale, Co-op Missions, and Daily Challenges. Let’s explore each mode in detail:
Story Mode: This is the game’s primary mode, where players follow the Panther’s quest to collect the Shakti Stones. The mode consists of 120 levels (15 per region), each with a unique objective—from defeating a boss enemy to solving puzzles based on Indian riddles. The Story Mode features full voice acting in 12 Indian languages, with dialogue written by local writers to ensure authenticity. For example, characters in the Southern Temples region speak Tamil with regional slang, while those in the Desert Oasis use Rajasthani phrases.
Battle Royale: A 100-player mode where players compete to be the last one standing. The Battle Royale map is a massive open world combining elements from all 8 regions, such as a Rajput fortress in the desert, a Tamil temple in the south, and a Himalayan village in the north. Players can use vehicles like auto-rickshaws, camels, and even elephants to navigate the map, adding a uniquely Indian twist to the battle royale genre. The mode also features event-specific zones, such as a Diwali market during the festival season, where players can collect rare loot.
Co-op Missions: Players can team up with 2-4 friends to complete challenging missions, such as defending a Shakti Stone from waves of enemies or raiding an Asura Clan stronghold. Co-op Missions require teamwork and strategy, and they reward players with exclusive items that can’t be obtained in other modes. The game’s social features make it easy to connect with friends—players can create clans (called “Panther Packs”) and chat using voice or text in their preferred Indian language.
Daily Challenges: These are short, 5-10 minute missions that refresh every 24 hours. Daily Challenges are designed to be accessible for casual players, with objectives like collecting a certain number of items or defeating a specific enemy. Completing Daily Challenges earns players “Panther Points,” which can be redeemed for in-game currency, outfits, or weapons. The challenges often tie into Indian festivals—for example, during Holi, players might be tasked with collecting colored powder to defeat enemies, while during Eid, they can earn rewards by helping NPCs prepare for the celebration.
Prompt Panther’s gameplay is built around three core mechanics: combat, exploration, and progression. These mechanics are designed to be easy to learn but difficult to master, ensuring that both new and experienced players can enjoy the game.
The game’s combat system is a mix of melee and ranged attacks, with a focus on combo moves and special abilities. Players can perform basic attacks by tapping the screen, and combo attacks by swiping in different directions. Each weapon has its own unique combo set—for example, the Katar Daggers allow for fast, successive strikes, while the Vajra Axe delivers slow but powerful blows that can knock down multiple enemies.
Special abilities, called “Shakti Powers,” are unlocked as players progress through the game. These abilities are based on Indian mythology and include: “Agni Blast” (a fire attack inspired by Agni, the god of fire), “Varuna Wave” (a water attack based on Varuna, the god of the oceans), and “Vayu Dash” (a speed boost inspired by Vayu, the god of wind). Each Shakti Power has a cooldown period, so players must use them strategically during battles.
Enemies in Prompt Panther are also inspired by Indian mythology and folklore. Common enemies include “Rakshasa Warriors” (demonic soldiers with brute strength), “Yaksha Archers” (mythical creatures that shoot poison arrows), and “Pishacha Thieves” (shape-shifting demons that steal in-game items). Boss enemies are even more impressive, such as “Mahishasura” (a buffalo-headed demon king) and “Kaliya Naag” (a giant serpent inspired by the myth of Krishna and Kaliya).

Exploration is a key part of Prompt Panther, with each region offering a vast open world to discover. Players can move freely across the map, climbing mountains, swimming in rivers, and exploring hidden caves. The game’s movement system is smooth and responsive, with a “parkour” mechanic that allows the Panther to jump, slide, and climb over obstacles with ease.
One of the most popular features of the game’s exploration is the “Treasure Hunts.” Scattered throughout each region are hidden treasures, such as ancient coins, rare artifacts, and secret weapons. These treasures are often located in hard-to-reach places, requiring players to solve puzzles or complete small challenges to access them. For example, in the Southern Temples region, players might need to match Tamil temple carvings to unlock a hidden chamber, while in the Desert Oasis, they might have to navigate a maze of sand dunes to find a Rajput treasure chest.
To aid in exploration, Prompt Panther includes a “Compass” feature that points players toward objectives, treasures, and nearby enemies. The Compass can be customized to show only the information players want, making it useful for both casual exploration and focused questing. Additionally, players can unlock mounts as they progress through the game, such as elephants (which can carry multiple players and smash through obstacles) and camels (which are fast and can traverse desert terrain without slowing down).
Prompt Panther’s progression system is designed to reward players for their time and skill, without relying on pay-to-win mechanics. Players earn experience points (XP) by completing missions, defeating enemies, and exploring the game world. As they level up, they unlock new weapons, abilities, and outfits, as well as access to new regions and game modes.
The game also features a “Skill Tree” that allows players to customize their Panther’s abilities. The Skill Tree is divided into three branches: Combat, Exploration, and Support. The Combat branch focuses on improving attack power, combo damage, and Shakti Powers, while the Exploration branch enhances movement speed, climbing ability, and treasure-finding skills. The Support branch unlocks passive bonuses, such as increased health, faster cooldowns, and better loot drops.
In-game currency comes in two forms: “Panther Coins” (earned through gameplay) and “Shakti Gems” (earned through Daily Challenges or purchased with real money). Panther Coins can be used to buy basic items, such as weapons and outfits, while Shakti Gems are reserved for rare items, such as legendary weapons and limited-edition festival outfits. Importantly, all core gameplay content can be unlocked using Panther Coins, ensuring that players who don’t want to spend money can still enjoy the full game.
Prompt Panther stands out in India’s crowded mobile game market thanks to its unique features, which are tailored to the needs and preferences of Indian players. Below are some of the game’s most popular features:
One of Prompt Panther’s biggest selling points is its support for 12 major Indian languages, including Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Bengali, Marathi, Gujarati, Kannada, Malayalam, Punjabi, Urdu, Oriya, and Assamese. This is a game-changer for players in regional India, many of whom prefer to play games in their native language. The game’s dialogue, menus, and tutorials are all fully localized, with voice acting by local artists to ensure authenticity.
For example, in Tamil Nadu, the game’s voice actors include popular Kollywood dubbing artists, while in Punjab, the dialogue features colloquial Punjabi phrases like “ki haal hai bhai?” (how are you, brother?) and “chak de phatte!” (let’s go!). This level of localization has helped Prompt Panther resonate with players in non-Hindi-speaking regions, where many international games fail to gain traction.
Internet connectivity is a major issue in many parts of India, especially in rural areas. To address this, Prompt Panther includes a full offline play mode, allowing players to enjoy Story Mode, Daily Challenges, and even some Co-op Missions without an internet connection. The offline mode syncs progress with the online server once a connection is restored, so players never lose their hard-earned rewards.
The offline mode has been a huge hit in rural India, where mobile data is often expensive or unavailable. According to Raj Games Studios, over 30% of Prompt Panther’s active players in India use the offline mode regularly, making it one of the game’s most popular features.
Prompt Panther regularly hosts limited-time events tied to major Indian festivals, such as Diwali, Holi, Navratri, Eid, Christmas, and Pongal. These events feature exclusive content, such as festival-themed outfits, weapons, and missions, as well as special rewards that can only be obtained during the event period.
For example, the Diwali event (“Deepavali Dhamaka”) transforms the game’s urban regions into a festival of lights, with NPCs celebrating by lighting diyas and exchanging sweets. Players can complete missions like “Protect the Diwali Market” (defending vendors from Asura minions) and “Collect Firecrackers” (using firecrackers to defeat enemies) to earn the “Diwali Rajah” outfit and the “Lakshmi Bow” (a weapon inspired by the goddess of wealth). Similarly, the Holi event (“Holi Hai!”) allows players to throw colored powder at enemies to stun them, and rewards them with the “Holi Ranger” outfit and the “Rangoli Dagger.”

To make in-game purchases accessible to Indian players, Prompt Panther supports a wide range of local payment methods, including UPI (Unified Payments Interface), Paytm, PhonePe, Google Pay, Amazon Pay, and even cash payments through PayPoint and MobiKwik. This is crucial in India, where many players prefer to use UPI or mobile wallets over credit cards.
The game also offers affordable in-game packages tailored to the Indian market, with prices starting as low as ₹10. For example, the “Shakti Starter Pack” costs ₹49 and includes 500 Shakti Gems, a rare weapon, and a 7-day XP boost. These affordable packages have made in-game purchases popular among players, with over 15% of Prompt Panther’s Indian players making at least one purchase.
Prompt Panther is designed to be accessible to players of all abilities, with a range of features that make the game easier to play. These include customizable controls (allowing players to adjust the size and position of on-screen buttons), adjustable difficulty levels (from “Casual” to “Hardcore”), and a “Low Data Mode” that reduces data usage for players with limited mobile data plans.
The game also includes a “Visual Aid” feature for players with visual impairments, which highlights important objects (like enemies and treasures) with bright colors and adds audio cues for key events. For players with hearing impairments, all in-game dialogue is accompanied by text, and sound effects have visual indicators (like a flash on the screen when an enemy attacks).
Localization is at the heart of Prompt Panther’s success in India. Raj Games Studios understood that to win over Indian players, the game needed to go beyond just translating text—it needed to adapt to the country’s diverse cultures, traditions, and gaming habits. Below is a detailed look at how Prompt Panther was localized for India:
As mentioned earlier, Prompt Panther supports 12 major Indian languages, making it one of the most linguistically inclusive mobile games in the country. The localization process involved more than just translation—Raj Games Studios hired local writers and linguists to ensure that the game’s dialogue, menus, and tutorials felt natural and authentic to each language group.
For example, in Bengali, the game uses formal language for NPCs like kings and priests, and informal language for common villagers, reflecting the linguistic norms of West Bengal. In Punjabi, the dialogue includes popular slang terms like “sadda Punjab” (our Punjab) and “jatt di gall” (a Jatt’s word), which resonate with Punjabi players. The game also includes regional variations of Hindi, such as Bhojpuri (spoken in Uttar Pradesh and Bihar) and Haryanvi (spoken in Haryana), to cater to players in these states.
Prompt Panther’s cultural adaptation goes beyond language, with the game incorporating elements from India’s diverse cultures into every aspect of gameplay. For example:
Examples of regional outfits in Prompt Panther, including the Kanjeevaram Saree (Tamil Nadu) and Phulkari Dupatta (Punjab)
To cater to India’s regional diversity, Prompt Panther offers slight variations in gameplay and content across different regions. These differences are subtle but meaningful, ensuring that players in each region feel seen and represented.
For example, in South India (Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh), the game’s Story Mode includes additional missions inspired by South Indian mythology, such as defeating “Ravana” (from the Ramayana) and “Mahabali” (a mythical king from Kerala). The region’s Battle Royale map also features more temple structures and coconut groves, reflecting South India’s landscape.
In North India (Uttar Pradesh, Delhi, Punjab, Haryana), the game includes missions inspired by the Mahabharata, such as defending “Hastinapur” (the capital of the Kuru dynasty) and collecting “Arjuna’s Bow.” The Battle Royale map in North India features more forts, palaces, and agricultural fields, reflecting the region’s geography.
In East India (West Bengal, Assam, Odisha), the game’s missions draw inspiration from Bengali folklore and Assamese mythology, such as defeating “Chandi” (a goddess from Bengali mythology) and navigating the “Brahmaputra River.” The Battle Royale map includes more rivers, forests, and traditional Bengali huts.
These regional variations are updated regularly based on player feedback, ensuring that Prompt Panther continues to adapt to the needs of its diverse player base.
