BRANDS NEED A NEW WAY TO ENGAGE FANS: GAMES
Mobile games are a $36.9B market and TV's biggest brands are already adopting them.
Games are the new frontier for brands to capture their fans' hearts and attention. The more interaction a fan has with a brand experience, the more loyal they are. That's why TV brands such as Pokemon have expanded their mobile app footprint, giving passionate fans unique experiences of 'living' the brand as much as possible.

OUR FIRST PARTNERS ARE CHIP AND JOANNA FROM HGTV's #1 SHOW
"Fixer Upper" is HGTV's most watched show ever. We're helping them get even bigger.
In the last season, which aired through spring 2016, Chip and Joanna broke cable records, with up to 4 million viewers tuning in to a single episode. Their all-American values, authenticity and sense of humor have rocketed them to the status of national sweethearts.

HELP US CREATE THE GAMES YOU WANT TO PLAY
We're a tight-knit team, and we want you to be a part of it.
"Building a thriving business is about building great teams. I witnessed this when Alfred grew his ad agency at M&C Saatchi, and I'm seeing it first-hand at fun-gi. We've both been in the games industry long enough to know the opportunity he's capturing can only be done with a crew that creates with purpose, knows the flow of fun, and is passionate about design. These are the ideals he holds to himself and those around him, and it's resulting in truly innovative game content."


The genesis of fun-gi and House Flip is a story of risk and reward. When I first flew to Waco, Texas to pitch Chip & Joanna Gaines, I had nothing but my will and a clunky demo funded from my dwindling life savings. Finding the tables turned with Chip pitching me instead, I knew our game was something special. But it wasn’t enough to create innovative content alone; after all, there are plenty of great games that land in the app stores unnoticed.
At fun-gi, we captivate customers in the app stores by partnering with brands which have exceptional alignment with our novel gameplay. Where Chip & Jo lift our game and open the doors to their zealous fans, fun-gi grows their brands and unlocks a new audience. Together, our audience heart share amplifies, further bonding the love that fans have for Chip & Joanna as well as for House Flip. Few others create content this way, and we aim to become the leader in publishing fun games for growing brands.
And the irony hasn’t escaped me that we’ve designed a game around the age-old business of real estate speculation. The simple concept of buying low and selling high is the very thing that drives who we are as a country: to take risks and reap their rewards. Joining us as an investor isn’t just about game creation; it’s a vote to keep the American Dream alive.
Much love,

Alfred Fung
