Kemlet: Meet Players Near You

Communitech Labs Limited

About this app

There's a seat waiting.

Some nights you are three and need a fourth. Other nights you want to play and have nobody to play with. Kemlet is for both.

Kemlet connects card and board game players who are near each other, so they can complete a table and play in person. The game happens around a real table, not on a screen.

IF YOU HAVE A TABLE
Post a game table with the game, the place, the time and how many seats you need. It takes a minute. Players nearby see it and ask to join. You decide who sits down.

IF YOU WANT TO PLAY
Browse open tables close to you, on a map or as a list. Filter by game, distance, day and skill level. Ask to join the ones you like. A quiet notification tells you when a new table near you needs a player, capped at twice a day.

WHAT YOU CAN PLAY
Tarneeb, Trix, Baloot, 400, Basra, Tawleh, Jackaroo, Banakil, dominoes, chess, Ludo, UNO or any game you name yourself.

YOU HOST, YOU DECIDE
Every join request comes to you first. You see who the person is before you approve. Your exact address stays hidden until you do. Until then, players only see the area.

YOUR SAFETY COMES FIRST
Nobody gets your address, your phone number or your exact location by browsing. The map shows an approximate area, never a doorstep. Only a player you have approved sees the rest.
Every profile carries a rating and an attendance record built by people who actually played with them. Hosts know who they are inviting; players know whose table they are walking into.
Report or block anyone in two taps. A blocked person never sees your tables and you never see theirs.
Chat opens only after a host approves, so nobody can message you out of nowhere.
A filter and a human moderation team keep money talk and abuse out of listings and chat. You can delete your account and everything in it from inside the app at any time.

TABLE CHAT
Chat opens once the host approves. Sort out the time, the place and who is bringing the coffee.

ARABIC AND ENGLISH
Arabic first, right to left, in the language people actually use around the table. English throughout as well.

NO MONEY
Kemlet is about the company and the game. There are no payments of any kind in the app. Money talk is filtered out of listings and chat.

AFTER THE GAME
Rate the people you played with. Ratings and attendance build a reliability score, so everyone knows who actually shows up.
