If you're one of those people who just can't resist a good old-fashioned multiplayer game, regardless of the time elapsed since the last century, you're going to love this list. As we enter what can only be described as a "golden era" for gaming, it's never been easier to find a pal and get your game on.
No longer do you need to go down to your local arcade and fork out roughly seven dollars for three hours worth of sweaty, competitive fun - now you can log-in from anywhere in the world with any device. And because we're stuck here inside our homes and condo units; whether you rented a condo unit, or it’s a condo of your own, sharing that fun with our friends is now done virtually. Zoom is the biggest platform that we're using right now to host pretty much everything from simple business and classroom meetings, to family reunions, funerals, or even weddings! Zoom is such a flexible app for communication and for seeing each other virtually.
So here are a list of games you can play online on zoom with your friends without having to leave your homes, and maximize your condo living experience:
Team Fortress 2
This free-to-play, first person shooter from Valve is a blast to play. It's a theme you'll have to live with for a while if you want to get into playing online multiplayer games with your friends, but it's well worth it.

This free-to-play strategy game from Ubisoft is a lot of fun. There's no point in getting too serious with the rules and strategies, as it still allows you to be hilarious and just mess around.

As you could have probably guessed from the title, this is an adult or "mature" game. You'll definitely be laughing sick sick with your friends as you play this game over Zoom.
