Message


            To everyone around the world,



             I believe that we are all feeling uneasy these days
              because of the new coronavirus (COVID-19). Staying
              at home is now more important than ever to prevent
              transmission and protect our loved ones. Games are
              a great form of entertainment you can enjoy at
              home. Instead of going out, we can work together to
              help contain the infection by staying home and
              playing games with our families, partners, and
              friends (#PlayApartTogether).



             We have also set up campaigns to help you enjoy some
              of the games we have to offer.



             We pray for the safety and good health of everyone
              around the world.




            KLab Inc.


            President and CEO
