Four online games that you can play with your friends and family for free

• Follow

Among the many things that 2020 taught us, the most important one was the importance of keeping in touch with near and dear ones.

With the coronavirus-induced lockdown and the threat of the spread of the virus forcing us to stay indoors, our options for unwinding became limited. But thanks to technology and access to unlimited data, there were plenty of games available for us to help us detach from the excruciating ground realities.

Here’s a list of 4 such platforms, or as we call them – Video Games, that you can play with your friends or family online using your mobile phone.

Among Us

It is a game of teamwork and betrayal developed by Innersloth LLC in 2018 shot up to fame during the lockdown. In this game, you can play either as a crewmate who completes assigned tasks or an imposter who sabotages crewmates’ tasks to create chaos.

Bomb Squad

This is a game of multiplayer minigames that you can play on both local WiFi and over the internet. In one mode, you must capture the flag and in the other, you must become a hockey star. Adding the humour to the mix is the ragdoll physics and a variety of bombs that even stick to your friends’ heads!

Brawl Stars

It is a fast-paced 3v3 multiplayer and battle royale developed for mobile by the makers of Clash of Clans and Clash Royale, Supercell. If you are one of those who are always on a clock but drawn towards action, you can quickly jump into a Gem Grab, Brawl Ball or Heist game modes.

UNO

The classic card game that you might have played while taking a chai break is now on mobile. This game packs all the classic fun that it originally brought along with an additional ability to customise the rules and play with random players online. Are you up for the challenge?
