Bunch has raised $3.8 million in funding for its app that lets people play mobile games with friends over video chat.

Bunch‘s idea is to make games more social by letting people engage in video chat before, during, and after playing their favorite mobile games. It was inspired by “LAN parties” on the PC where gamers get together and play games in the same room.
