***Disclaimer***

Despite the nature of the story told in Keyboard Kommander we at Chunko Games, are in no way, 5G conspiracists - it was merely a fun premise for our narrative department to play with, creating an alternate universe that features zombie enemies. Any unfortunate parallels to conspiracy theories in our universe are, well, unfortunate and unintended, as this is a work of fiction, for the purpose of entertainment.
