The COVID-19 virus has impacted our lives in many ways. Many of us are forced to work from home. Some of us may find it difficult working from home since we are used to the office environment. There are meetings and phone calls to attend, mails to reply too that keep us busy. Amidst all this, we find taking a small coffee break and chit-chatting with our colleagues. However, when we are home-quarantined and maintaining social distancing, we miss these small breaks.

We have something that could replace your small breaks while you work-from-home. We have made a list of multiplayer games that are fun to play with colleagues, with friends and family. These games are easy to play and they can be run on your office laptop. All you need is a web browser and an active internet connection.
