Basic Information
Bengaluru based Deftouch's vision is to dominate the real money gaming market with highly social, high engagement mobile games for a billion users, starting with All Star Cricket - the world's first Realtime Multiplayer Cricket Game. Having started as a two person team that got more than 5M users with their first game, Deftouch is now a 20 strong, highly ambitious outfit that has ambitions to create truly world class games that people will buy. Deftouch's social games will unlock the simmering potential of the huge untapped Indian market after key market forces such as 4G internet and UPI penetration have given them a strong tail wind. Having been seeded by Kstart, Kalaari Capital's seed arm, Deftouch are confident they have found the right financial partners in their journey to the top. Deftouch are Kalaari's first gaming investment after Dream11, their runaway success, having scoured the gaming ecosystem for the right fit and potential. With in-house custom-built back-end focusing on micro packet sizes will give its players a seamless multiplayer experience even on dodgy Indian mobile internet.
