All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. Enter Antzill, the perfect pill to ward off work-life boredom. The interactive gaming group has a vast array of community features. Designed especially for young gaming enthusiasts, the forum provides you with a platform to challenge, play and interact with other like-minded gamers. We jump in.

Click-a-pick

Here, there's a game for everyone. For lovers of retro play, there's the Classic Games section, which has remakes of the videogames of the Seventies and Eighties. If masala is what you're looking for, the Desi Games fit the bill. Both these game types are categorised under the Casual Games section, which are ideal stress-busters. The platform is high on massively multiplayer online role playing games (MMORPGs), thus letting you connect and interact with over hundreds of other users. It has over 75 scoring and 400 non-scoring games on display, and a genre-wise arrangement of games to help choose your favorite among sports, racing, strategy, puzzle et al.

Hardcore hai

If your office facilitates access to high-end animation and graphics, you can try out the advanced online games in the 'Hardcore' Games section. And no, dirty minds, there's nothing in it that can get you fired.

It's smart, too

While IT administrators keep themselves busy with online games, they can't ever see you to do it. So, they block the usage of animation, as a result of which you aren't able to play up your work hours. However, Antzill has been made to fool these gatekeepers. The games are loaded with minimum configuration, so it doesn't take much to get the ball rolling.

Prize catch

The players' haven offers a rewards program that provides every gamer an opportunity to redeem points for cool goodies. You can take advantage of this by challenging other gamers, maintaining personal profiles, rating favourite games and scrapping friends. And if you do it right, you might win Ipods and mobile phones. The site also provides a platform to several online gaming websites like Zapak.com, Games2win.co and Kreeda.com through collaborative featuring, so there's a lot you can expect. It also hosts a unique feature, the Friend Leader Board, wherein gamers can check the top scores for all games. This helps boost the competitive spirit.

Since the community is new on the block, it will take sometime before it starts planning offline gamers' meets and unions, though the first is expected inu00a0 June this year.u00a0u00a0 Metros like Delhi, Mumbai and Chennai are top on the map, followed by Bangalore, Pune and Hyderabad.
