== History == Michael Schade and Christian Lohr opened Fishlabs in 2004, incorporated under the name Fishlabs Entertainment GmbH. That same year, the company received a round of financing, which allowed them to pay for development expenses for several years while generating revenue from their releases. It developed advergames like ''Barclaycard's Waterslide Extreme''. In May 2010, Fishlabs planned a series B round and announced its plans to move into the massively multiplayer online games market.
